In the 2012 book Theorizing Islam, Hughes had written critically about the scholarship of Omid Safi, a professor of Islamic studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and other scholars in the academic study of Islam. In January 2014, Safi published a piece on the ezine Jadaliyya presenting his “impressions about the state of Islamic studies in the North American academy.” In the course of the article, in which he expressed his concern regarding unreconstructed orthodox Muslim voices entering the American academy, he stated that Hughes and two other scholars had written “pieces attacking and critiquing the prominence of Muslim scholars in the Study of Islam Section.” Specifically, he described Hughes book as “grossly polemical and simplistic.” In response, Hughes demanded that he “do what the Western tradition of scholarly discourse demands and respond to my ideas in print as opposed to engaging in innuendo and identity politics.” He further suggested that Safi may have been motivated by Hughes’ position in Jewish studies, adding sarcastically, “[w]e all know that Jews are the arch-enemy of Islam.”
