Book Club Meeting: The Muslim Next Door

This event has already passed

Everyone is invited to join the Social Wave Book Club as we discuss The Muslim Next Door: The Qur'an, the Media, and that Veil Thing by Sumbul Ali-Karamali.

The Muslim Next Door offers easy-to-understand yet academically sound answers to questions about Muslims and the Islamic world while dispelling commonly held misconceptions. Written from the point of view of an American Muslim, the book begins with the basics of Islam and how Muslims practice their religion before easing into more complicated issues like jihad, Islamic fundamentalism, and the status of women in Islam. The author's vivid anecdotes about growing up Muslim and female in the West, along with her sensitive, scholarly overview of Islam, combine for a uniquely insightful look at the world's fastest growing religion.
