Very interesting insight into the Islamic world
Aatish Taseer is the son of an Indian journalist and a Pakistani politician and businessman who lives mostly in England. Torn between two worlds, he sets out in search of the Islamic world of his father. What makes a substantial difference between its view of life and that of Islam, to which he belongs by birth.
The book is to describe the impressions Taseer on his journey through the Islamic world were able to win, but always dedicated he whole chapter in the story of his own biography.
When I held the book in hand, I wanted it back already put in the bookcase before me to work on the idea of my own prejudices about Islam, but it led them to read. And it was a good decision, although I soon noticed that many things were not really springs from prejudice, but perfectly reasonable critical engagement with Islam. Taseer, brightened nothing, but describes his experiences, which allow very critical eye. Soon it becomes clear that there can be no single image of Islam is that there are still certain images that we must bear in mind when we have dieses Weltbild nachdenken und diskutieren.
Ich habe es keinen Moment bereut, das Buch nicht in das Regal zurückgestellt zu haben und so kann ich jedem der ein bisschen mehr über die aktuellen Verhältnisse in den islamischen Staaten erfahren will dieses Buch ans Herz legen.
