The Way to God

von Khurram Murad

Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

KHURRAM MURAD gives a greatly illuminating and very concise, yet remarkably comprehensive exposition of a burning issue of our times. For, in the wake of the powerful current of Islamic resurgence, the Shari`ah, in the eyes of friend and foe alike, has come to epitomise the goal towards which Muslims are restlessly trying to advance in quest of their destiny. Yet, paradoxically, nothing in Islam seems to arouse greater misgivings and more intense feelings of fear, hostility and ridicule as does the Shari`ah. Hence the need to understand it is no less compelling than the Muslim desire to implement it. How can it be viewed as the path that man, in Islam, must walk as he toils and strives for his Creator? What are its sources; its compulsive logic for immutability; its dynamics for coping with changed circumstances; its way of resolving tensions between love and law, inner motivations and outer sanctions, form and spirit; its historical development - these and many other important issues have been dealt with in a style which is both convincing and charming. This booklet can be used to great advantage for explaining what is the Shari'ah to Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
