This is an authoritative & comprehensive guide to Islam & Muslims, which allows readers to appreciate a diverse culture & understand real people in their everyday lives. While many books are devoted to the study of Islam, & dozens more to specific Muslim societies (usually Arab ones), this is the first to bring together both, explaining Islam in theory & in practice across the diverse Muslim world. Readers learn not just what Islam says about everything from the nature of God to marriage to politics, but also how individual Muslims (traditional or modern, devout or barely observant) apply teachings in everyday life. ...

The meaning & message of Islam has been corrupted & perverted by a particularly virulent strain of Islam. But behind the stories of atrocities, strife & turmoil, there is a number of different versions & visions of Islam struggling to survive & make sense of a rapidly changing world. Writer & critic Ziauddin Sardar tells the stories of different interpretations of Islam & argues for a critical version of a religion that has a long & distinguished history
- but which appears to have been swept aside by a fundamentalist interpretation. Along the way, he answers a host of questions uppermost on the minds of most people. Is Islam inherently violent & misogynist? Why do young men & women go to join the Jihadi Caliphate? Does Islam need a reformation? Should we be frightened of Sharia? What part do Muhammad`s teachings play, or ought to play, in our own times? Ziauddin Sardar is a practising Muslim & he is as terrified by the rise of Islamic Jihadi groups as anyone else. In this remarkable book, he urges all those who feel the same way to work together to preserve the sanity of our world.

The recent prominence of Islamic politics in the Middle East, notably the Iranian revolution & its ramifications, has raised important questions about society, politics & culture. It has posed a challenge to the main theoretical approaches in the social sciences from Marxism to modernization theory & it has given some credence to the idea that the world of Islam is essentially distinct from Europe, & follows a course of development dictated by its own history & culture.

He argues that rather than being revivals of historical ideas & institutions, current political & social developments in the Islamic World are, in fact, uniquely modern phenomena. ...
