The book challenges the widespread perception of Islam as a threat and instead presents a nuanced and empathetic understanding of the faith. The gulf between Islam and the West is widening, and this book seeks to bridge that divide by providing entry to the minds and hearts of Muslims worldwide. Through vivid storytelling and insightful analysis, Frankopan introduces readers to the kindness of Mohammed, the beauty of Islamic art, and the permeation of the divine in public spaces. He also explores the tension between mysticism and literalism that still threatens the religion. Ed Husain, an expert on Islam, expertly guides readers through the nuances of Islam and its people, contending that the Muslim world need not be a stranger to the West but rather a peaceable ally. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the future of Islam and the relationship between the two worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 x 197 x 22 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781408872284                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ed Husain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094367400186,"sku":"9781408872284","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/7e3ea9758f8d73590e5d371e11b57ba2.jpg?v=1625804319","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/house-of-islam-a-global-history","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
