Islamic Democracy: Road Map to Peace in the Middle East (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665501613)

Many scholars see democracy and Islam as incompatible. However, history has shown that Muslims were the pioneers of a democratic system 1400 years ago. This book illustrates the fact that Muslim nations can establish a democratic political system based upon Islamic teachings and principles. Democracy must be a homegrown political system that meets not only the political demands of a nation, but also the cultural demands. In order for a democracy to work in the nation it is being presented, it must align with the people's values and culture; simply being a worldwide political system is not enough. The time has come for Muslim nations to adopt a system that meets the demands of Muslims and non-Muslims alike for the sake of peace and justice for all. This is the theme of Islamic democracy that this book is attempting to portray for the Middle East.
