Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

  • Beautiful book even today

    Very interesting subject especially in the face of the Israeli Palestinian conflict. I love learning about the beauty of Islam. The book was very clean. I’m really glad I got it.

  • very recommended book!

    very good book! Mohamad Asad learned three things about pure islam : 1. a muslim has to take care of his/her body as also of his soul 2. a muslim has to respect others (s)he is interacting with even if never met before 3. a muslim has to deal with respect and wisdom to the surrounding environment (trees, water, nature resources, etc)

  • Read this book if you want to open your mind and change your perspective

    Never would I have ever believed that such a good synposis of the Arab peoples and the ever broader Muslim nation would be possible from a European descendant. I can safely say that I have a greater understanding, and reverance, of my own heritage because of this Assad and is beautiful mind. Please read it!

  • Road to Mecca

    This is a fascinating book for one who wishes to understand about Islam. The author describes the various steps and turns that took him on the way to Mecca which also ultimately led him to accept Islam. A very good book indeed
