Review: 111 Questions on Islam: Samir Khalil Samir, S.J. on Islam and the West


111 Questions on Islam: Samir Khalil Samir, S.J. on Islam and the West
111 Questions on Islam: Samir Khalil Samir, S.J. on Islam and the West by Giorgio Paolucci

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This is the perfect book for someone who wishes to learn the basics of the Muslim faith. Samir examines in an easy to understand question and answer format the fundamentals of Islam, with the ultimate goal of seeing whether a peaceful coexistence between the Islamic and Christian faiths is attainable without either faith compromising their basic tenets. The short answer is "no". The longer answer, as Samir explains, is based on the understanding of Islam as being an integrated social, political, cultural and religious ideology.

This is a very interesting and informative book. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in furthering their understanding of the current issues involved in the immigration and integration of Islam in Western societies.
