With 1.4 billion practicing Muslims in the world it is necessary
for all to better understand the culture and belief system. In The
Restless Wind and Shifting Sands, author and Islamic scholar Harry
J. Sweeney explains the intricacies and tenets of Islam. The
educational discourse provides insight into the religion practiced
by one out of five people worldwide.
The Restless Wind and Shifting Sands explores the Islamic
culture through a series of fictionalized private conversations
between three friends-Modi, Mani, and Radi-who each represents the
moderate, mainstream, and radical factions. Through their daily
talks, the friends tackle all phases of Muslim life including
arranged marriages, Islamic law, female genital mutilation,
predestination, honor killing, Palestine, shariah, and the
Qur'an.
The men discuss how each belief drives Islamic culture and
relations with non-believers. Filled with a wealth of information,
the exchanges between friends seek to impart a better understanding
of Islam and the challenges it poses for Western civilization.
The Restless Wind and Shifting Sands communicates that the
Islamic religion can contain its fundamentalist elements and work
toward a peaceful future.
