In The Challenge of Modernizing Islam, Christine Douglass-Williams answers these critical questions: Is Islam a religion of peace? Are most Muslims who immigrate to the West peaceful? What are the real hopes of Muslim integration? Is the reformist movement significant enough to effect real change realistically? Do you believe that Saudi Arabia is on a path to reform? How can the West control our borders? Should Islam be outlawed in the West? Does Islam pose a danger to Jews and Christians? How are Western policy makers handing the War on Terror? Are populists racists? In The Challenge of Modernizing Islam, Muslim moderates and reformists reveal their commitment to the separation of mosque and state, pluralism, democracy, their personal faith beliefs, warnings about the malignant and covert nature of stealth jihadists, and their personal travails against Islamism. It captures the Islamic Reformist movement in its full intellectual ferment, laying bare the tragedies and tensions, as well as the triumphs of the reformers.
