This review is from: Murder in the Name of Allah (Hardcover)

One great book which wipes off the elegation of terrorism from the face of Islam which is a religion of peace. Gives an insight to the true concept of Jihad. Unveils the crooked bloody buisiness going on in the name of religion. A must read for all Muslims and Non-Muslims. A real eye opener. I recommend the other books of the auther should also be examined esp. the book " Revelation, Rationality, Knowledge and Truth" which is a masterpiece.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep analysis of so-called RELIGIOUS TERRORISM, September 2, 2001

By 

"mobbi" (Toronto, ON, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Murder in the Name of Allah (Hardcover)

I'd like to say that this book is more than sufficient in itself, to not only remove the stain of Terrorism from the face of Islam and other Religions , but author has exposed the roots of REAL TERRORISM in the name of God, its Causes and elements responsible for it, in an extremely beautiful and logical way. After reading this book, no reasonable person can blame the innocent believers for any kind of bloodshed and terrorism. This book exposes the facts we use to overlook very often.

5.0 out of 5 stars Orthodoxy Is Not Islam, February 5, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Murder in the Name of Allah (Hardcover)

This book mainly focuses and successfully with cogent arguments disturbs the foundation of modern day Islamic thought. Maudoudi's philosophy was deeply flawed and this book is an excellent proclamation to true Islamic values. This book gives proof after proof from the Qu'ran, hadith and sunnah to establish Islam as a peace loving religion and not a graveyard for fanatics who ascribe the death penalty to apostasy. Indeed it was the work of medevil scholars which corrupted Islamic juresprudence and continually disfigure the name Islam.

This book is a must read for Western socialists and thinkers who fail to understand why terrorism is so closely linked to Islam.
