This paper explores the genesis and evolution of IslamOnline.net, an influential online platform created by Muslim scholars and activists to provide an Islamic perspective in response to the often biased representations of Islam in Western media. The authors analyze its development, editorial structure, and the different content approaches tailored for English and Arabic-speaking audiences, illustrating how the platform has served as a critical space for engagement and dialogue, especially in the aftermath of significant global events such as 9/11.
