"Impressive."

Review by Jean on 25th May, 2017

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Have only read half of this book at present but I am impressed. Good points and well written I would say. This is the first time I have read Tariq Ramadan's books and I have ordered also his latest, due to be released in October.

Description

The essential introduction to Islam by a leading expert Hardly a day goes by without mention of Islam. And yet, for most people, and in much of the world, Islam remains a little-known religion. Whether the issue is violence, terrorism, women's rights or slavery, Muslims are today expected to provide answers and to justify what Islam is - or is not. But little opportunity exists, either in the media or in society as a whole, to describe Islam- precisely the question this short and extremely accessible book sets out to answer. In simple, direct language it will introduce readers to Islam, to its spirituality, its principles, its rituals, its diversity and its evolution.
