Heard the author Irshad Manji, on CBC radio and she was fantastic - funny, informative and compelling. Her position is that people of the world need moral courage. That people in general and Muslims in particular are confusing faith with dogma and that is a horrible mistake. Westerners are too afraid of being labelled a bigot to denounce obvious atrocities practiced in the Muslim culture, for example female circumcision and stoning, beheading etc.
It is a real refreshing view and it certain More...

I agree with Manji's message and mission, but this book could have used some serious editing for conciseness, flow and the removal and Manji's gigantic ego.

The colloquial style is sometimes distracting, but you should not let that prevent you from hearing about multiple viewpoints on faithful Islam.

great message but after first hundred pages was really repetitive and was too boring to finish. i really enjoyed and agreed with the authors insights just didnt have a compelling narrative to hold my interest

So poignant and amazing, Manji is definitely an author to check out. The chapter "Culture is not Sacred" is applicable to all faiths, people and nations.
