Summary
From New York Times bestselling author of Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus Nabeel Qureshi—a former Muslim—come his deeply personal, challenging, and respectful answers to the many questions surrounding jihad, the rise of ISIS, and Islamic terrorism.
San Bernardino was the most lethal terror attack on American soil since 9/11, and it came on the heels of a coordinated assault on Paris. There is no question that innocents were slaughtered in the name of Allah and in the way of jihad (meaning warfare against the enemies of Islam, in this case).
But do the terrorists' actions actually reflect the broader religion of Islam? The answer to this question is more pressing than ever, as many Muslim refugees are still migrating to the West, seeking shelter from the violent ideologies of ISIS, Al-Qaida, and other radical Islamic groups.
Setting aside speculations and competing voices, Qureshi explores the answers to difficult questions like:
- What is Islam, and is it a religion of peace or violence?
- Is there a clear definition and doctrine of jihad?
- How are we to understand jihad and radical expressions of Islam in relation to our Muslim neighbors and friends?
- Why is there such a surge of Islamist terrorism in the world today, and how should we respond?
- How does jihad compare with Old Testament calls to warfare?
In Answering Jihad, bestselling author Nabeel Qureshi answers these urgent questions from the perspective of a former Muslim who is deeply concerned for both his Muslim family and his American homeland.

Brilliant, easy to assimilate, compassionate
Knowledgeable, first hand experience. Gentle but firm explanations of texts and traditions. Helps Christians understand Islam and how to define how and why we do BOT worship the same God. That the title is not the person. A must read for both Christians and Muslims contrasting the violence in early islam compared to the peace of early christianity, due to the different core beliefs of Mohamed and Jesus.

Exceptional teaching and full of information!
Unlike 'Seeking Allah, finding Jesus' this work is less a personal testimony and more an in-depth study of the origin and evolution of Islam. Another book I will read at least twice!

Well presented and heartfelt concern for the dichotomy faced by many Muslims regarding the out working of their faith in the current differing Islamic world climates.

Short concise and highly accessible.
One of the best short introductions to the foundational role of violent Jihad in Islam that I've found. Concise, comprehensive, nuanced and compassionate. Highly recommended.

Brilliant and insightful
This book is for anyone who wants to understand Islam better. Nabeel helpfully outline’s peaceful vs extremist understandings of the Muslim scriptures. Generous towards Muslims but honest about the contents of the Quran.
