Publishers Description
Answering Islam evaluates the claims of orthodox Islam from a Christian point of view, appealing especially to the Qur'an and the Bible. The authors, a Christian apologist and a former Muslim, provide apologetic answers to prepare Christians for ministry in the Islamic context. This second edition contains two new appendices, a new preface written in light of September 11, 2001, and updated information throughout.
"This book is a theological masterpiece, the most lucid and comprehensive theological analysis and critique of Islam from a Christian perspective I have ever seen. It is invaluable as a tool for understanding the most serious religious challenge to Christianity in the modern world." R. C. Sproul, Ligonier Ministries |

| Get this book and learn it well,It's 100% on the money.It will help anyone to not be taken in by Islam.also read my book the story of how i was Sharper Than A Two Edged Sword-by Nadia N.Rehmani. you can get it also on this site.booksurgepublishing company published it for me.Nadia | | | | Answering Islam,: A GREAT read for the Christian apologist & the awakened Muslim Oct 2, 2006 |
| This is an excellent book and it addresses the concerns that the liberated West has about the threat of the backwards society in the Islamic Middle East. Oppression of women, intolerance, violence etc. are all some of the issues that this book looks at from the Christian eye as these horrible calamities are in the Muslim limelight. It's not just media, because we all know media is not blatantly out to get a certain group of people. Many of these problems today are in fact Muslim problems, and this book addresses these problems, the root causations behind them, and how a Christian can defend Christ and advocate for the triumph of good over evil in dialogue. This is the perfect book for a novice apologist who wants to jump start his or her knowledge base on teh topic. | | | | Scholarly Polemic Confronting Islam, Defending Christianity Apr 29, 2006 |
| 'Answering Islam' is not focused on the political, prophetic, or current events aspect of Islam, but primarily examines Islam the religion, though the historical and political aspects are not totally neglected. The academic tone is not outright combative, but does convey a sense of Islam is wrong, Christianity is right, and here's why. For confirmation that this outside representation of Islam is fair, I'd recommend also learning of Islam by reading Islamic writings, including the Qu'ran, and conversing with Muslims personally. I have done this and consider 'Answering Islam' to be an accurate but general representation, noting (as the authors do themselves) that Muslims are not a monolithic group and there are many theological disagreements amongst them. The book also includes helpful appendices (including on sects), glossary, subject index, and a bibliography and a reading list for further study. Though written from a Christian perspective and including a defense of Christianity section, the book is not evangelistic so much as it is explanatory. | | | | Understanding Terrorists Oct 21, 2005 |
| If you want to know what makes terrorists tick - this is a great read. By understanding Islam and portions of the Koran, one can understand how radical jihadists justify killing innocents. If you don't know anything about Islam the religion this is also a great resource. For example, I had no idea Islam came onto the scene well afer Judiasm and Christianity. Understanding this, it clearly appears to be a "cut-n-paste religion", borrowing heavily from each, and a blatant attempt to usurp each. Ergo - why you have muslims claiming Jerusalem as "their" holy city, the temple mount as "their" holiest site, Jesus was just a prophet, etc. etc. etc. Just a copycat religion - with servere overtones urging violence within their "holiest text" - leading to the violent behavior of some, and condoning / complacent behavior by the majority. Well written, cool and objective, and really just the facts. | | |  | view of someone raised in Islam Sep 6, 2005 |
| As one raised in Islam, I truly wish more Christians would write books like these that would help break down the barrier between Muslims and Christians. | | | Write your own review about Answering Islam (2nd Edition)
