The Bohras a Muslim Community of Gujarat
... From then on, both sects followed different lines of Da'is (Amiji, 1975, pp. 28-33; Daftary, 1990, pp. 257–61; Lokhandwalla, 1955; pp. 117– 24). ...
The article analyzes the influence of religious network structures on entrepreneurial success. Members of the religious community
of the Bohras in Tanga, Tanzania, are contrasted with entrepreneurs of other ethnic origins. It is shown that the religious
network provides, through a loan scheme, the opportunities to start and run a business successfully. In this respect, the
importance of the Islamic business ethic is underlined. Finally, the macro-economic effects of the network are outlined.

Colonial migration and settlement rhythms entangle the shores and hinterlands of the Western Indian Ocean region religiously, economically, and socially until today. While historiographic and biographic studies are often centred on men in the late nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, this paper sheds light on current life worlds of South Asian women in a rural South African area. The women display religiosity in the midst of a generation gap between ‘old’ and ‘new’ Indians, ‘locals’ and ‘foreigners’, respectively. The paper attempts an analysis of transoceanic migration networks. This is necessary because the post-apartheid phenomenon of renewed Indian–South African relations questions notions of belonging. The ethnographic research focuses on South Asian Muslims, often from Gujarat or from what today is known as Pakistan. It teases out a deeper understanding of class-based, racially inflected Islamic practices within the configuration of global Muslim social relations.
We know very little about Indian communities in the pre-oil Persian Gulf, such as the one described above. Their makeup was very different from the Gulf’s South Asian communities today. Before the dawn of the oil era and the partition of India after World War II, only a few thousand Indians resided there—the majority of them merchants and their families, such as those William Palgrave saw in Manama in 1862. Many were wealthy and influential, elite members of society. The region’s economic dependence on India and India’s profound cultural and political influence on the region up to 1947 was such that locals regarded India and Indians as highly as they now regard the West and Westerners. For generations leading up to Britain’s withdrawal from India, the shaikhdoms of Eastern Arabia formed part of Britain’s Indian Empire. India and Indians represented power and prestige.
The literature on enterprises in Sub-Saharan Africa provides evidence that there are significant differences between companies run by members of the majority population and those run by members of minorities. Differences are frequently related to size, age and certain success indicators. However, it remains unclear whether decisions concerning the acquisition of personnel also diverge. This article outlines results of a questionnaire survey on recruitment methods of enterprises in Tanzania. The authors tried to discover differences in the recruitment strategies of Tanzanian-African and Tanzanian-Asian companies, but found none. The interpretation is that companies operate in similar business environments and face comparable exogenously given institutional restrictions. Thus, strategies of personnel recruitment seem to be alike.

Members of the religious community of the Bohras in Tanga, Tanzania, are contrasted with entrepreneurs of other ethnic origins. It is shown that the religious network provides, through a loan scheme, the opportunities to start and run a business successfully.

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to present a case study of ethnic minority entrepreneurship in Sweden offered through the sacred‐secular lens of the Islamic Dawoodi Bohra community, with the purpose of exploring the relationship of spirituality to entrepreneurship.
Design/methodology/approach
Through a case study, this paper spotlights the entrepreneurship of immigrant women from the Dawoodi Bohra Islamic community in Sweden. Utilizing the literature from spirituality, ethnography and ethnic minority entrepreneurship, this paper seeks to foreground the importance of a transcendent dimension in entrepreneurship which is woven into and sustains the day‐to‐day beliefs and practices of ethnic minority women entrepreneurs.
Findings
The women seem to be able to negotiate their spirituality within their role as ethnic minority women entrepreneurs, which gives meaning to their daily existence and increases their izzat (honour) in their community.
Research limitations/implications
This is a specific case study and represents a particular Islamic community, hence cannot realistically reflect all Islamic women in entrepreneurship. Future research can uncover the role of migrant Islamic women from various communities and countries.
Practical implications
The paper presents the interweaving and leavening effect of spirituality and entrepreneurship for Islamic women entrepreneurs and is a valuable insight on how such women negotiate their lives.
Originality/value
The paper presents a close look at Islamic women from the Dawoodi Bohra community whose lived experience represents a negotiation between their spirituality, patriarchy, migration, ethnicity and minority.
