Whether you want to know how Islam differs from Christianity or how Islamic extremists justify their violence, Sproul and Saleeb provide credible answers to your questions.

There can be little doubt that we are living in a world where extremist views and fanatical religious ideology are at the forefront of our minds. This is particularly so with the collapse of several Middle East states and the rise of groups such as Islamic State. Since September 11, 2001, there have been more than 30,700 deadly Islamic terrorist attacks. Why? Perhaps if we try to understand, or at the very least acknowledge, what Islamic terrorists use as their motivational literature we can discover a way to communicate with them before violence becomes their only perceived alternative. Muhammad's Wrath: The Dark Side of Islam takes an impartial look at Islamic literature that many extremists use as their inspiration. It exhibits quotes from the Quran and Hadith that many non-Islamic people around the world find offensive, disturbing and threatening. Many of the verses chosen have been cited by extremist and terrorists as their inspiration for horrifying acts, or as tools to attract and recruit new members and until we can discover what sets them on this path, we will see more bloodshed. Muhammad's Wrath is not meant to promote hate or prejudice against Muslim people. It is it my intention to insinuate that all Muslims are extremist, terrorists, or violent. It contains only my own opinions of the Islamic faith, drawn from personal interpretations of Islamic text and the Holy Quran.

“Ed Husain has become one of the most vital Muslim voices in the world. The House of Islam could very well be his magnum opus.” -Reza Aslan, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Zealot “This should be compulsory reading.” -Peter Frankopan, author of the international bestseller The Silk Roads Today, Islam is to many in the West an alien force, with Muslims held in suspicion. Failure to grasp the inner workings of religion and geopolitics has haunted American foreign policy for decades and has been decisive in the new administration's controversial orders. The intricacies and shadings must be understood by the West not only to build a stronger, more harmonious relationship between the two cultures, but also for greater accuracy in predictions as to how current crises, such as the growth of ISIS, will develop and from where the next might emerge. The House of Islam addresses key questions and points of disconnection. What are the roots of the conflict between Sunni and Shi'a Muslims that is engulfing Pakistan and the Middle East? Does the Koran encourage the killing of infidels? The book thoughtfully explores the events and issues that have come from and contributed to the broadening gulf between Islam and the West, from the United States' overthrow of Iran's first democratically elected leader to the emergence of ISIS, from the declaration of a fatwa on Salman Rushdie to the attack on the offices of Charlie Hebdo. Authoritative and engaging, Ed Husain leads us clearly and carefully through the nuances of Islam and its people, taking us back to basics to contend that the Muslim world need not be a stranger to the West, nor our enemy, but our peaceable allies.
