Résumé
This text contains essential insights into issues such as why Islam has such major divisions between movements such as the Shi'ites, the Sunnis and the Wahhabits, and the central importance of the Shar'ia (Islamic law) in Islamic life. It also… offers fresh perspectives on contemporary questions: Why is the greatest 'Jihad' (holy war) now against the enemies of Islam, rather than the struggle against evil? Can women find fulfilment in Islamic societies? How must Islam adapt as it confronts the modern world? 1997.
