I did not finsh the book and my not sure I ever will. The first chapters of the book where ok but then around the middle the books turns out to be a Saudi propaganda book instead of an Islamic book.
In chapter 4 the author starts to speak about the restrictions on religious liberty in Saudi Arabia. His reasoning is that people are free to believe in whatever they want but are not allowed to publicly out those believes. For this he starts a whole rant on how other countries do this as well and that it is the right of each indivudual country to make those rules and so forth. How is this Islamic in any way? No evidence in hadith or Quran. It was only 100 years after the death of our Prophet that Muslim scolars started to debate those issues. Next up: why Saudi women arent allowed to drive. I was very currious for this reasoning. The writer explains this is because Saudi women choose to dress more moddest, and how it is so much nicer to have a chauffeur. How unworldly can you be? Even our Niqabi sisters are perfectly capible of driving them self. The author forgets a whole layer of people who do not have the means to pay a driver. It suddenly became very clear to me why foreign workers are treated so badly in Saudi Arabia. I have not read anything else. This has absolutely nothing to do with Islam.
