Islam an Introduction by Tariq Ramadan

The question of a human's relationship with the divine is one that is eternal, revelatory and profoundly nuanced. It is one that blends tradition, culture, history, social context and human intelligence in the ongoing search for God through the path of love and worship - the path of Islam.

From key concepts of the perception of 'salam' to jihad of the soul, Islam: An Introduction journeys through some of the most fundamental concerns of spirituality and practice of one of the world's most fascinating and misunderstood religions, offering a succinct response to complex ideas with expert navigation and sensitivity.

In drawing upon western philosophies and Islamic traditions, Tariq Ramadan brings together fascinating perceptions of our relationship with the Divine and successfully sheds light upon the core understanding and foundations of belief.
