ISLAM, 9/11 AND GLOBAL TERRORISM
Description
Islam 9/11 and Global Terrorism is a brilliant exposition of the growing perception that post 9/11 more Muslims are taking to terrorism. It is a pioneering attempt to comprehensively examine this issue right from the theological origins of political Islam to Islamic faith, beliefs and tradition, from what motivates a terrorist, to the concept of Jihad versus the concept of tolerance.
This book intelligently unscrambles the cross-currents of Muslim nations from the oratory of its manipulators to its actual reality. It also explores issues like historical roots of bitterness towards the West that seem to dominate these nations, and the reasons for the increasingly rigid rejection of modernity by many in the Muslim World
Nazrul Islam presents the tenets of Islam in a secular manner which unfortunately has not been very visible in the current debate over Islam and Terrorism. This is an essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the dynamics of this debate.
