About this title

Synopsis

Introduces the religion of Islam using anecdotes and facts, and discusses the similarities and differences between Islam, Christianity, and Buddhism, using statements from the Koran

Reviews

This book, written by two British journalists and supplemented by a brief statement of personal faith by prominent Muslim M.A. Modood, is an excellent introduction for the general reader. The book employs well-chosen quotations from the Qu'ran , and discusses the origins of Islam as well as its contemporary expression. Given its length, the book is surprisingly comprehensive. Highly recommended for public libraries.
