Young Muslim’s Guide to the Modern World, A

Description

Through Muslim ’maps’ of the modern ’intellectual’ landscape, the author challenges two fronts: young Muslims to become familiar with their religion and cultural roots and to gain an understanding of the modern world from the Islamic point of view. This guide for the Muslim to the modern world—the first of its kind in any language—presents the eternal truths of Islam as well as Western religious and intellectual tradition as they confront each other in today’s world. The Islamic perspective is so unique that NPR (National Public Radio)’s Robert Siegel discussed the work with the author on the “All Things Considered” program.
