The project aims to explore the history of Mulid celebrations, which are vibrant expressions of Sufi devotion and cultural heritage in Egypt. This project is novel in its approach, as it not only explores the historical and spiritual significance of Mulids but also examines the contemporary experiences and meanings that these celebrations hold for participants, through poetry, stories, calligraphy, readings, rituals, prayer and dance. The project will also create a comprehensive database that will document contemporary Mulid practices in Egypt and contribute to the Islamic Cultural Archive (ICA) database, thereby supporting future research and cultural preservation efforts. By applying qualitative research methods, including fieldwork, participant observation and interviews. Also, to capture the diverse interpretations associated with Mulids, thus filling a significant gap in existing scholarship. The creation of a comprehensive database documenting the geographical distribution, Sufi affiliations, and traditions of the Mulid celebrations further adds to the project's innovative contributions and provides a valuable resource for future research and cultural preservation efforts.
The multidisciplinary nature of the project is a key strength, integrating frameworks from social anthropology, religious studies, festival studies, and material religion. These frameworks will help to analyse the cultural, spiritual, and socio-political dimensions of Mulid celebrations, ensuring an understanding of these events. In addition, by contributing to digital archiving efforts and supporting the preservation of intangible cultural heritage, the project aligns with broader initiatives aimed at improving cultural accessibility and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration in the digital humanities. This approach ensures the projects relevance not only to scholarly audiences but also to broader cultural preservation initiatives, enriching the ICA database with valuable insights and data.
