A Thinking Person's Guide to Islam

The Essence of Islam in 12 Verses from the Qur'an

The world is at a crossroads today. A tiny minority of Muslims seems to be bent on hijacking the religion of Islam and bringing it into perpetual conflict with the rest of the world. Because of their actions, very few non-Muslims understand the real difference between Islam as it has always been, and the distorted perversions of Islam today. This book is an attempt to positively say what Islam actually is—and always was—as well as what it is not.

“Lucid in its explanations, unassailable in its logic; a book of the moment; simply spot on.” H.E. Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, The Sultan of Sokoto, Nigeria

“Easy to read, easy to understand and easy to swallow and digest. It very beautifully explains what Islam really is, how it is explained in its sacred texts, and how it has been understood throughout centuries by the overwhelming majority of Muslims.” Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani

“A very much needed book, comprehensive, yet concise, easy to read, and authoritative. A must-read book.” Shaykh Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi
