ESPOSITO:WHAT EVERYONE NEED KNOW ISLAM P

Oxford University Press, USA

Ratings and reviews

Very basic errors coming from a leared man. I just read a few pages and was astonished to see someone who's studied islam make such errors. E.g. sarah urges Abraham to "sleep" with hagar. That is false. Sarah adviced Abraham to "Marry" not sleep with hagar because she was getting old and could not bear children. Another huge error is, Sarah feeling jealous of Hagar and Ismael. Where on earth did he get that information? Some of his work are mere guesswork and made up. If one wants to learn anything about Islam, it's better to get it from the horses mouth. All in all, I'd give the book an F for Failure.

This book contains a lot of wrong and made-up stuff from the writer and his own imagination. Some of the information is based on complete falshood in context of the actual islamic historic facts.
