Description

Engaging, accessible, and thought-provoking, No god but God is a persuasive, elegantly written, and accessible introduction for young readers to a faith that for much of the West remains shrouded in ignorance and fear.

Adapted for young readers from No god but God: The Origins, Evolution, and Future of Islam, this exploration of Islam by Reza Aslan, internationally acclaimed scholar of comparative religion, delves into the rituals and traditions of a religion that is largely misunderstood by the West. It covers the religion's origins--the revelation of Muhammad as Prophet and the subsequent uprising against him, and the emergence of his successors--as well as Islam's complex history.
No god but God is sure to stimulate discussion and encourage understanding of the Islamic faith and the people who follow it.
