چکیده انگلیسی


• Community flourishing in multireligious Indian cities occurs in ‘everyday’ engagements.
• This can have a feminised aspect in the home and immediate neighbourhood.
• This article explores engagements between Hindu and Muslim women in Jaipur city.
• Hindu women are limited and cautious in their engagements with Muslim women.
• Patriarchal narratives of nationalist Hindu parties exert an influence.
• Strong multifaith communities value and encourage feminised encounters.

SynopsisMultireligious syncretism in cities is chiefly upheld by the engagements of everyday life where enduring bonds are formed and sustained. This article studies the feminised dimensions of the ‘everyday’ in the home and neighbourhood of Jaipur city in India, which it sees as spaces of everyday activities and encounters between communities in multireligious Indian cities. Women's mutual engagements and agency in these spaces are vital to support cohesive multireligious community development in Indian cities. However, patriarchal political Hindu injunctions against Hindu women engaging with the ‘Muslim other’ are strong, and they consciously and/or subconsciously influence the degree to which Hindu women allow themselves to engage with Muslim women in everyday interactions. It concludes that feminised multi-faith engagement is vital for communal peace and stability, and must be consciously invoked for community development in Indian cities.
