Product Description
Islam is the way of life for millions of people around the world. Its teachings guide people to live harmoniously and in balance with themselves, others and the world around them. Everyday people come into contact with Islam and those who practice this faith.
The need to know about Islamic teachings has become more important that ever.
As Muslims assimilate the English language into their rainbow of lexicons the need for clear and concise literature grows. This is especially true when one considers that there are millions of Muslims whose native language is now English. In addition, many seekers of knowledge have been yearning for a book that would present the clear and precise Islamic view of life in a format that not only invites further study and research, but that also provides the path to achieve this goal.
What Islam is All About is a textbook designed to meet all of these needs. In one volume is included the basic history of the Prophet Muhammad, (peace be upon him), the teachings of Islam, the history of the ancient Prophets, the study of the QurYan, the Islamic philosophy of the world and life within it, Islamic law. Hadith, contemporary issues and many more. Perfect for Muslim schools, Sunday schools, adult study classes, independent learners, students of religion, seekers of truth and anyone interested to know more about Islam from an insider’s point of view.
You will not find a more complete, compelling and pleasant presentation of Islam and what it teaches anywhere else!
This is a wonderful book for all ages. It’s easy to understand, and breaks things down into simple concepts that create a good foundation for the rest of the lessons. Highly recommend. It is a great guide for anyone interested in learning or teaching more about Islam.

Nowaday’s everything we know about Islam is told by the media, which presents its views. Take for instance, when Sept 11 happened we saw Palastinians celebrating… did u know that CNN used 1991 footage of them celebrating! Anyway this is a great book and i love it. It the best book i have got, it gives us a clear picture that Muslims aren’t bloodthirsty or Islam isn’t ruled by the sword. It gives excellent descriptions to topics in Islam that we have judged really badly, hey why am i tellin u all this. Read it yourself! u won’t regret it!

The US are NOT told about ISLAM,
this book is EASY to read and does not contain many FOREIGN terms. It made it very easy to understand the BASICs of the REAL ISLAM.
I read this book and nearly half way thru, I reverted (converted) to ISLAM from CHRISTANITY.
Wonderfully written, I could not be happier

What is Islam about? That is a common question asked by Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Some people study for years and years just to answer this question. The author of this book is one of those people who studied a lot about Islam. Now he finally has an answer.
This book was written by a Baptist Christian who converted(reverted) to Islam. It tells you everything you would want to know about Islam, from Muslim daily habits, to the lives of the Prophets, and even to Islamic government. The author has a very good understanding of Islam and it shows in this book. Since he was a Christian till college, he knows the views of Christians and tells the Christian view of just about everything.
This book also shows a lot about science in the Qur’an. For example in the Qur’an it says that all life was created from water. Today we know that water is the basis of all life and that humans have a high percentage of water in them. Also the Qur’an states that all plants were created with paired organs. Now we know that plants have both male and female reproductive organs. The Qur’an, as always, holds true. These little facts and many others make the book very interesting.
My dad was the one who sparked my interest in this author. He bought every book he could find written by Mr. Emerick. I thought that if my dad thinks he is good then he must be at least mediocre. It turns out I was wrong. He was better than mediocre, he was excellent.
I would highly recommend this book to any Muslim who feels they are missing something in their religion. I would also recommend it to anyone that wants to learn more about Islam or just want to pass some time. In my opinion this book is a masterpiece. 5 stars.
