** ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE BOOK WILL GO TO OXFAM www.oxfam.org.uk/ ** There are very few books by Muslims that analyse the Qur'an in a truly critical way-and even fewer written in Arabic by Arabs. This book is important because it breaks that ground and removes that barrier. The book has been available in Arabic for about ten years in PDF form. The first page identifies the text as a draft copy, indicating that it was not finalised for printing.

Who is Allah? What does He ask of those who submit to His teachings? Pulitzer Prize-winner Jacke Miles gives us a deeply probing, revelatory portrait of the world’s second largest, fastest-growing and perhaps most tragically misunderstood religion. In doing so, Miles illuminates what is unique about Allah, His teachings, and His resolutely merciful temperament, and he thereby reveals that which is false, distorted, or simply absent from the popular conception of the heart of Islam.

In the spirit of his two previous books, God and Christ, and with his characteristic sensitivity, perspicacity and prodigious command of the subject, Miles calls for us all to read another’s scriptures with the same understanding and accommodating eye that we turn upon our own.
