About this ebook

From the front page of The New York Times to YouTube, Dr. Wafa Sultan has become a force radical Islam has to reckon with. For the first time, she tells her story and what she learned, first-hand, about radical Islam in A God Who Hates, a passionate memoir by an outspoken Arabic woman that is also a cautionary tale for the West. She grew up in Syria in a culture ruled by a god who hates women. "How can such a culture be anything but barbarous?", Sultan asks. "It can't", she concludes "because any culture that hates its women can't love anything else." She believes that the god who hates is waging a battle between modernity and barbarism, not a battle between religions. She also knows that it's a battle radical Islam will lose. Condemned by some and praised by others for speaking out, Sultan wants everyone to understand the danger posed by A God Who Hates.

Ratings and reviews

This a brave and truthful look at Islam by a former Islamic woman, a captivating recalling of her childhood, her mother and grandmother's lives under Muslim men's authority and abuse. An easy, eager read...please educate yourself about these Islamic haters.

Islam does not oppress woman. It just gives men a little more rights over them. Muslims are not allowed to overrule them. Wafa Sultan lied in her book.

As somebody whose been studying the Islamic Faith for over 15 years, has attended Islamic lectures and events, visited Mosques globally, I can confidently say that this book is FALSE, MISLEADING, UNINTELLITUAL & written in and by the tongue of ignorance.
