Mohammedans: Villains or Victims (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789987997671)

Was the publication of this book necessary even with availability of ubiquitous holy books and countless conciliatory speeches and writings by the religious and political leaders of our time? The unprecedented rise in the terror acts like the bombing of the Twin Towers and the Pentagon' abduction of Chibok girls' mass killings of non Mohammedans in Nigeria, beheading of males' forced marriages to widowed wives and orphaned girls' burning alive of the war captives in Syria' the siege of the West Gate Mall' discriminate killings of university students in Garissa Kenya and gunning down of school children in Pakistan' the bombings of the embassies in Dar and Nairobi, attack on Kampala and burning of churches and assassination of priests in Zanzibar, attacks on Lebanon, Mali and Paris, among others, against unwarranted indiscriminate phobia leveled against Arabs and Mohammedans are facts, distasteful facts that have piled up and now are staring at us demanding answers. Why the escalation of radicalism is so high today? Are all radicals necessarily Mohammedans? Where do all fingers point to? But whose fault is it? Are there solutions? The religion and its believers; are they one and same entity? Can the believers have extreme views which don't resonate with the core values of their religion? Are the two really separable? Should the solution come from the victims alone or from the accused too? Should Mohammedans and Arab world stand aside and look when their own interests are in jeopardy, and a great religion and race condemned, unfairly? Who is a true Mohammedan anyway? Do we know? Is it not reasonable to overlook the hole and instead focus on the doughnut itself? Is there any one wining under the present situation? Aren't both sides already losers? In the end' it is not about who is wrong or right where. It is rather about who can make it right, and now! And that person is YOU, yes' YOU, the immediate reader: Arab or not' Mohammedan or not! You realize that this book is not only for Mohammedans' Jews or Christians only? Is it indeed not one for all men and women, with or without religions? Is it not for religious as well as for secular education; from lower to the highest level? But what is Religion anyway? Is this discussion urgent? Well' the clock is ticking; the detonated bomb is buzzing! Your future' your children's hopes, to the nth generation, indeed the hopes of the nation and humankind as a whole are now set on your laps. Indeed with the publication of this book, we bequeath the future of human race' of the nation, and of your children and their children's children, into your capable hands and intellect sir, madam!
