Islam has never been in the world's news as much as it is now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Yet it remains the most misunderstood of religions, seen particularly in the West as a fanatical faith of jihad and fatwa.

This is also a user's manual for those already in Islam, revealing the history of the faith's doctrines and the correct way to observe them, in particular the Five Pillars that are Islam's most essential foundation....

Jihad Beyond Islam
ISBN: 9781845201579 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Jihad" is a highly charged word. Often mistranslated as "Holy War," it has become synonymous with terrorism. Current political events have entirely failed to take account of the subtlety and complexity of jihad. Like many concepts with a long history, different cultural ideas have influenced the religious aspects of jihad. As a result its original meaning has been adapted, modified and destabilized--never more than at the present time. How does jihad manifest itself in Muslims' everyday lives? What impact has 9/11 and its backlash had on it? By observing the current crisis of identity... "Jihad" is a highly charged word.
