Introduction to Islam - Tariq Ramadan
Couldn't load pickup availability
From one of the most prominent intellectuals in the Muslim world comes a timely new introduction to one of the world's most practised and most misunderstood religions. In frank, unapologetic language, Tariq Ramadan walks readers through Islam and its principles, rituals, diversity, and evolution.
Ramadan, known for his efforts to reform and change the understanding of Islam in the West, avoids ideology and idealism instead of attempting to depict the true meaning of Islam to readers who have no previous experience with the religion. The book is therefore focused on defining the basic principles of Islam and offering an overview of the faith's history, from its beginnings in the prophetic mission to the Sunni-Shi'a schism to the formation of distinct schools of law, theology, philosophy, and mysticism.
