Allah Liberty and Love

Allah, Liberty and Love is about creating choices beyond conforming or leaving the fauth, which is what Manji hears from young Muslims who wrote to her in frustration, whose emails, letters, and conversations are included in the book. Manji writes, "I'll show struggling Muslims how to embrace a third option: reforming ourselves." Manji recounts many stories from young people who have contacted her for advice on how to step out of limiting views of Islam and the restrictions they put on life, love, family, and careers. Irshad Manji's message of moral courage, with stories about contemporary reformers such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Gandhi, and Islam's own Gandhi, inspire and show the way to practicing faith without fear.
