Answering Jihad: A Better Way Forward

By Nabeel Qureshi

Answering JihadSetting aside speculations and competing voices, what really is Jihad? How are we to understand Jihad in relation to our Muslim neighbors and friends? Why is there such a surge of Islamist terrorism in the world today, and how are we to respond?

In Answering Jihad, Nabeel Qureshi (author of the New York Times bestseller Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus) answers these questions from the perspective of a former Muslim who is deeply concerned for both his Muslim family and his American homeland.

The book premieres today, and Nabeel Qureshi is one of the voices I listen to when trying to understand Islam and its often bloody encounter with Christianity.
