The acclaimed short history of Islam, fully revised and updated to commemorate the ten-year-anniversary of 9/11. *Ten years on from 9/11, much of the Muslim faith remains largely unknown and misunderstood in the West.*While there have been a number of successful books on the topic of Islamic history - from Karen Armstrong's Islam- A Brief History to Bernard Lewis's The Crises of Islam - there is surprisingly no book for a popular audience about Islam as a religion, let alone one by an author from an Islamic background.*No God But God fills that gap, addressing issues of belief- the difference between the Quran and the Bible, the meaning of the Hajj, the Muslim relationship with Jesus, the Muslim attitude towards Jews, equality between the sexes and more.* This revised and updated edition includes a wealth of new material and new chapters covering recent uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya; the changing face of Islam in Europe and North Africa; and a number of topics of heated debate (the veil controversy; Islam & women; Iraq War as a Jihadi recruiting agent etc).
