Particularly since 9\/11, critics of Islam have attacked the faith and attributed violence by extremists to its holy book, the Qur'an. This leaves many people with questions about Islam: How could a so-called religion of peace advocate violence? What does Islam truly say about violence, war, and peace? And how much of what the critics and the extremists claim is true?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDoes the Qur'an (Koran) Really Say That?\u003c\/em\u003e attempts to answer such questions by addressing some of the myths, misrepresentations, and misunderstandings often propagated by critics who assert themselves as experts on the faith. Interestingly, this includes extremists who claim to be experts on the faith as well. Author Naqi Elmi offers an analytical and balanced approach in explaining and addressing topics especially related to Islam and issues of peace and violence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo transcend the many misconceptions about Islam, there must be mutual understanding-for we do not have a clash of civilizations, but rather a clash of perceptions. Therefore, for peaceful coexistence, there is a greater need to understand world religions objectively and to explore common ground so we may promote solidarity and world peace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naqi Elmi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1480873853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781480873858\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Archway Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2019 pg. 175","brand":"Naqi Elmi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935676137727,"sku":"9781480873858","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2d57229b-5681-4230-983a-21168ffd51f3.jpg?v=1681421195","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/does-the-quran-koran-really-naqi-elmi-9781480873858","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
