Description : 

Embracing the Middle Way : Islam’s Call to Moderation in the Face of Extremism and the Fitnah of Terrorism. In a world clouded by misinformation, ideological extremism and rising uncertainty, Embracing the Middle Way presents a clear and compelling description of Islam’s authentic teachings that are rooted in scholarship, guided by compassion and anchored in the principle of moderation.

This work offers deeper insight into the Qur’anic and Prophetic foundations that counter extremism, restoring clarity to misrepresented concepts such as jihad and khilafah, while defining fitnah. Drawing upon the Qur’an, the noble teachings of Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and classical Islamic scholarship, the book carefully distinguishes between genuine Islam and the ideological manipulations propagated by groups like ISIS and others who exploit religion for violence and power.
 

At its heart, Embracing the Middle Way reaffirms Islam’s message of balance, justice and moderation; a message urgently needed in today’s fractured world. Written in the author’s unique and accessible manner, this concise yet profound treatise is an essential resource for readers seeking a clearer understanding of Islam and its response to the challenges of extremism and terrorism.
 

“It is simply not true that terrorist movements were born from the womb of Islam or that the teachings of this religion produced ISIS and other similar armed extremist groups. … It is neither fair nor acceptable to judge religions by the actions of criminals who may claim affiliation with them. The teachings of religions are indeed the first to repudiate such criminals and their heinous, inhumane crimes.”---Dr Ahmad al-Tayyeb, Grand Imam of Al-Azhar.

“Our judgement of Islam has been grossly distorted by taking the extremes to be the norm. That is a serious mistake. … The extremes exist, and they must be dealt with. But when used as a basis to judge a society, they lead to distortion and unfairness.” ---King Charles III.
