_swillmerchant_ 's review for:
4/5 Excellent and digestible history of Islam, the life of the prophet, and explanation of the different religious sects and how they came to be. Eye opening conclusion : "Islam is not at war with the world, but with itself". - .5 star only because this book is, understably, a bit dated (15 years). That did not detract at all from the history, just from the conclusion and the modern significance/parrellels. I especially appreciate how Aslan discussed the Indian revolution and the dichotomy of Muslims in India under English colonial oppression, because that is, unfortunately, not something I had ever considered before.
