Islam voor dummies Tekijä: Malcolm Clark
Een duidelijk boek over de Islam. Het doet je nadenken, kennis maken zodat je je medemens met respect en zonder angst kan benaderen.
Good basic desription, but without any emotion behind it, as the writer is not a Muslim. Tried to be very up-to-date at the time of writing, which makes it outdated 10 years on.
Over the years, I've wondered about the fervor with which so many Muslims adhere to their religion. Living in metro Detroit and having worked in both academic and public libraries, I've been acquainted with many Muslims and appreciate the fact that they're ordinary people. I know many devout Christians, but media reports strongly suggest that the average Muslim is far more devoted to his/her religion than the average Christian is. Why is that?
When I mentioned this in passing to a (non-Muslim) young woman, she recommended this book. She hadn't finished it, but she had gained some insight into it to two close cousins (sisters) who had married and converted to Sufi Islam.
This book is filled with information. Being in no position to evaluate the validity of that information, I'm giving the author the benefit of the doubt in assuming he's presenting a balanced and accurate overview of the origin, history, fundamental beliefs, rites, and flavors of Islam.
Thank you, Malcolm Clark. You've given me a greater appreciation of one of the world's great religions.… (lisätietoja)

It is what is says. A crash course in the tenets of islam, its practices etc. It helped me understand the good and the bad in this faith. I would not want to be a muslin woman.
