The Trouble with Islam: A Wake-up Call for Honesty and Change (Inscribed) - Manji, Irshad

INSCRIPTION FROM IRSHAD MANJI on title page; In this open letter to Muslims and non-Muslims alike, Manji asks pointed questions about mainstream Islam. "Why are we all being held hostage by what's happening between the Palestinians and the Israelis? Who is the real colonizer of Muslims - America or Arabia? Why are we squandering the talents of women, fully half of God's creation?" Maji offers a practical vision of how Islam can undergo a reformation that empowered women, promotes respect for religious minorities, and fosters a competition of ideas. Her vision revives Islam's lost tradition of independent thought. This book will inspire struggling Muslims worldwide to revisit the foundations of their faith. It will also compel non-Muslims to start posting the questions we all have about Islam today.
