Emir Caner, converted Sunni Muslim and coauthor of the bestselling Unveiling Islam, joins apologist John Ankerberg, host of the powerhouse John Ankerberg Show, to tackle a topic crucial to twenty-first-century Christianity.
Caner's immersion in the Islamic worldview, from growing up the son of a devout mosque leader, gives readers an authentic picture of Islam and jihad--"holy war." He and Ankerberg go beyond the hopeful but often ignorant pronouncements of politicians and religious leaders, considering...
- the Qu'ran's contradictory declarations regarding conflict and tolerance
- the facts that Muhammad was a warrior and Islam is a religion of battle
- the deceptiveness of calling Islam a "religion of peace"
- the decisive role of imams--teachers--in radicalizing adherents
- the false impressions of Islam gained by considering only North American Muslims
An invaluable tool for understanding this key issue and discussing it with Muslim and non-Muslim friends and acquaintances.
