The Truth About Islam Series

Emir Caner, converted Sunni Muslim and coauthor of the bestselling Unveiling Islam, joins apologist John Ankerberg, host of the powerhouse John Ankerberg Show, to tackle a topic crucial to twenty-first-century Christianity.

Caner''s immersion in the Islamic worldview, from growing up the son of a devout mosque leader, gives readers an authentic picture of Islam and jihad—"holy war." He and Ankerberg go beyond the hopeful but often ignorant pronouncements of politicians and religious leaders, considering...

• the Qu''ran''s contradictory declarations regarding conflict and tolerance
• the facts that Muhammad was a warrior and Islam is a religion of battle
• the deceptiveness of calling Islam a "religion of peace"
• the decisive role of imams—teachers—in radicalizing adherents
• the false impressions of Islam gained by considering only North American Muslims

An invaluable tool for understanding this key issue and discussing it with Muslim and non-Muslim friends and acquaintances.
