The gulf between Islam and the West is widening. A faith rich with strong values and traditions, observed by nearly two billion people, is seen by the West as something to be feared rather than understood. Sensational headlines and hard-line policies spark enmity, while ignoring the feelings, narratives and perceptions that preoccupy Muslims today.
The House of Islam seeks to provide entry to the minds and hearts of Muslims the world over. It introduces us to the kindness of Mohammed, the beauty of Islamic art and the permeation of the divine in public spaces; and the tension between mysticism and literalism that still threatens the religion. Ed Hussain expertly and compassionately guides us through the nuances of Islam and its people, contending that the Muslim world needs not to be a stranger to the West, nor its enemy, but a peaceable ally.
