An introductory guide to the important elements of the world's
largest religion, including the Quran, the Pillars of Faith, and
the life of Muhammad, as well as Islamic history, customs and
rituals, and contributions to world culture. Essential Islam: A
Comprehensive Guide to Belief and Practice is the ideal beginner's
resource on the core elements of a faith that, like Christianity
and Judaism, offers a guide to holy living and a path to
salvation—one that like other world faiths has inspired peace and
war, tolerance and brutality, enlightenment and abysmal ignorance.
Essential Islam offers an insightful, objective look at Islam from
its inception to the present day, including a discussion of Islamic
beliefs about God, history, warfare, marriage, the afterlife, and
the relationship between Islam and other faiths. It is a rich
source for dispelling misconceptions—for example, only 10 percent
of Muslims are Arabic, and only a quarter of those reside in the
Middle East—and for understanding tensions between groups within
and outside Islam. More importantly, it gives readers a portrait of
Islam not as a religion of extremists, but as a dynamic living
faith practiced by people of all kinds in virtually every corner of
the world.
