In Search of Truth: A Modern Snapshot of a Misunderstood Religion

by Najim Mostamand

Every story has a lesson, and in Najim Mostamand's ground-breaking story, there are plenty of lessons to learn from. In Search of Truth is a riveting book that takes you behind the scenes of Islam's growing importance over the last decade to the American social fabric and beyond. From a contemporary Western perspective, Mostamand paints a new picture of the faith -- one that relies on his efforts as a holistic scholar in the vast literature of Islam. Through eight comprehensive chapters, the reader will ultimately discover the pristine nature of Islam from its unexpected inception nearly 1400 years ago to its critical role in sparking revolutions across the Middle East today. Each chapter provides a snapshot of the most important subjects in Islam in a convenient, simple, and trusted body of knowledge. No longer does one have to skim the world of published media to understand the essence of Islam. The truth begins with this story.
