The world is a very religious place. Wherever you look, people are worshipping, praying, believing, following, even dying for their faith. But what does it mean to be religious? Are all religions the same? Do they all call on the same God simply using different names? Are their beliefs and practices simply cultural expressions of the same spiritual longings? This audiobook presents each of the world's five major systems of faith, carefully outlining the history, doctrines, beliefs, and spiritual practices of Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

There are various prophetic narrations and Qur'aanic verses that affirm Allaah's highness above creation. The Prophet (sal Allaahu 'alayhi wa salaam) and his companions believed this, and so did earlier generations of Muslims.

Does God exist? If yes, then why can't we see Him? If we can't see Him then how can we be sure of His existence? If God exists, then why did He create the universe, and what is the purpose and goal of my life? If God is all powerful, then how can we have free will? If we don't have free will, then how can He hold us responsible for our actions? There is so much suffering and evil in this world that a merciful and powerful God seems improbable. These and many other similar questions cross our minds at least at some point in our life.

One of the most depressing realities of modern life is the regularity with which deadly attacks are carried out in the name of Islam. Almost as depressing are the invariable reassurances by Western political leaders and media elites that these acts of violence have “nothing to do with Islam”. As part of these reassurances, we will also regularly hear the terms Radical Islam, Islamism, Militant Islam, "so-called" Islamic State (ISIS) and Jihadist bandied about as if people who act violently on behalf of Islam are somehow perverting the pristine teachings of the Muslim religion.

Il faudrait, et il est même impératif, que la majorité des êtres vivants sur cette terre sache que Dieu est en nous, que nous somme Dieu, que nous ne faisons qu'un. Cheikh al-Akbar Ibn 'Arabi évoque ainsi la notion ésotérique de l'unicité de l'être (wahda al-wujûd ) qui invite chacun d'entre nous à la quête spirituelle comme à la réalisation de soi, au développement personnel et à l'accomplissement du bonheur.

Profiled on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, Iranian-born scholar Vali Nasr has become one of America's leading commentators on current events in the Middle East, admired and welcomed by both media and government for his "concise and coherent" analysis (Wall Street Journal). In this "smart, clear and timely" book (Washington Post), Nasr brilliantly dissects the political and theological antagonisms within Islam. He provides a unique and objective understanding of the 1,400-year bitter struggle between Shias and Sunnis, and sheds crucial light on its modern-day consequences—from the nuclear posturing of Iran's President Ahmadinejad to the recent U.S.-enabled shift toward Shia power in Iraq and Hezbollah's continued dominance in Lebanon.

Here Esposito explores the major questions and issues that face Islam in the 21st century and how that will deeply affect global politics.
