Overview

Islam—once an obscure Middle Eastern religion—has rapidly grown into the second largest religion in the world. There are now more Muslims than Episcopalians in the United States! What attraction does Islam hold for its followers? What part does it play in shaping the outlook and attitudes of nearly one billion people?

Morey compares the Bible to the Qur'an, Jesus to Muhammad, and God to Allah. He explores the history and customs of Islam, as well as religious freedom and the role of women in Islam. Revised to include appendices on the Hadith and the pagan origins of Islam.

Top Highlights

“Islam is fueled by a subtle form of racism in which seventh-century Arabian culture in its political expression, family affairs, dietary laws, clothing, religious rites, language, etc. is to be imposed on all other cultures.” (Page 19)

“This causes tremendous problems and confusion. In the Quran one will often find that what is clearly commanded in the first part of the Quran is ‘abrogated,’ that is, contradicted, by something that is written in the latter part of the Quran.” (Page 125)

“Islam is actually the ‘deification’ of seventh-century Arabian culture. In a very profound sense, Islam is more cultural than it is religious.” (Page 16)

“Western people have a difficult time comprehending Islam because they fail to understand that it is a form of cultural imperialism in which the religion and culture of seventh-century Arabia have been raised to the status of divine law.” (Page 15)

“Since the faith of Islam deems it blasphemous to even suggest that the teachings of Muhammad and the Quran find their source in pre-Islamic custom, culture, and religion, Muslims did not do any significant research on what pre-Islamic Arabia was like.” (Page 35)

Praise for the Print Edition

Here is a book that concisely tells what Islam is...and what it isn't! I found it absorbing, clear and very helpful.

—Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Moody Church

Morey is a careful scholar whose statements we have learned to trust. If you want a reliable, trustworthy study of Islam, this is the book for you. Morey consulted every book in the Library of Congress; he read widely and digested carefully. This volume is the fruit of his labors.

—The Biblical Evangelist
