Review:
A must read for everyone interested in Islam. (Tauseef Ahmad Parray, The Muslim World Book Review.)
To have a peaceful future demands a more inclusive sense of pluralism and tolerance built upon mutual respect and understanding. But this cannot be achieved without knowledge of what Islam teaches and what Muslims believe. This book is an excellent tool towards that knowledge. (Dr. Joe Seferta, Renew)
