Aidah Aljuran’s research focuses on the Ismaʿili community, a minority group of Shiʿa
Muslims living in a predominantly Sunni society in Saudi Arabia. Her work examines how
practices of concealment and dissimulation operate in everyday life as social and linguistic practices, with particular attention to the central role of Saudi Ismaʿili women as
caregivers and primary agents of cultural and epistemological transmission.

Join the MCRME (Multi-Cultural Reproductions in the Middle East) Project for this
conversation as we explore the intersections of identity, language and lived experience
within an Isma'ili community.
