Most of us have heard of the Hadith by the Prophet Mohamed (PBUH): “Islam began as something strange and will return to being something strange.” It seems like this Hadith is very relevant to what we are experiencing today. Islam is under the spotlight in the media, news, and debates. Many misunderstandings are arising concerning Islam, especially after September 11, 2001. This book by Muhammad Qutb aims to clear many of these misunderstandings and explain Islam as it really is.
