Ideals and Realities of Islam

Description

This is the first of very few English books to treat Islam from its own point of view, from within the tradition. It is written for the Western reader interested in Islam and also for the Western-educated Muslim. The author seeks to answer many of the criticisms brought against the Islamic tradition by the West. This book explains, in contemporary language, the truth of Islam which is revealed in the Quran, as followed by generations of devoted Muslims.
