Drawing on their unusual access to intelligence sources and material, law enforcement, and groundbreaking research into open-source intelligence, Stern and Berger outline the origins of ISIS as the formidable terrorist group it has quickly become.

This audiobook will not be like the other books I have written. I will introduce to you a class of spiritual beings unlike those you have dealt with before.

Growing up in a strict Muslim community in London, Alom Shaha learnt that religion was not to be questioned. Reciting the Qur'an without understanding what it meant was simply part of life; so was obeying the imam and enduring beatings when he failed to attend the local mosque. Shaha was more drawn to science, and as a teen, he lived between two worlds: the home controlled by his authoritarian father, and a school alive with books and ideas. In this charming blend of memoir, philosophy, and science, Shaha explores the questions about faith and the afterlife that we all ponder.

The listener is taken on a truly fascinating journey of discovery exploring the role women played in different communities across the Islamic world.

"Terror für Allah", "Ehrenmord" und "Vornamenabfrage bei Silvester-Krawallen": Ständig wird Muslim:innen Extremismus und Rückständigkeit unterstellt.

Growing up in New Jersey as the only African American Muslim at school, Ibtihaj Muhammad always had to find her own way. When she discovered fencing, a sport traditionally reserved for the wealthy, she had to defy expectations and make a place for herself in a sport she grew to love.

Jihad is the most misunderstood concept in both the Muslim and the non-Muslim world. This book educates the listener on the misconceptions around the word "Jihad", and explains the true meaning of Jihad with support of the Quran and example from the life of the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad.

The concept of Islamic violence is so obviously unfounded that prima facie it stands rejected.

In 1989, Francis Fukuyama famously announced the "end of history." The Berlin Wall had fallen; liberal democracy had won out. But what of illiberal democracy - the idea that popular majorities, working through the democratic process, might reject gender equality, religious freedoms, and other norms that Western democracies take for granted? Nowhere have such considerations become more relevant than in the Middle East, where the uprisings of 2011 swept the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups to power.
