Destroy Myths, Create Realities, Read Islam 101"

Islam 101" a introductory book helps build bridges of understanding and hope between America and Islam through an inspiring narrative.

(PRWEB) December 23, 2003 --Did you know that even with all the fear that has been created in the media about Islam and Muslims the more Americans get to know Muslims the more they are relaxed and at ease around them? In a post September 11 world, the need to understand the billion plus Muslims is critical. What are their beliefs, why so many conflicts, who are they, where do the fundamentalists, jihad, and women fit into the big picture?

These are the questions that the book Islam 101", Ultimate Guide to Understanding Islam" by Javed Mohammed answers. Islam 101 is an easy to understand and inspiring introduction to Islam, a book, which can be comfortably give to anyone. Besides the beliefs, there is a myths and realities section on jihad, women, FAQs, and a section on building common ground, as well as a useful reference section for schools, employers and the media. It took two years and over 25 editors and graphic designers, Christian, Jews and Muslims (Sunni and Shia) to came together and work on this book.

"Islam 101 is the book to pick up if, like many Americans today, you want to know more about the practice of Islam but don't have the time to read hefty volumes. It's all here, in clear English in about 150 pages. We owe Javed Mohammed our thanks. It isn't everyday that a writer comes along to sweep away centuries of misinformation about a religion practiced peacefully by people all around the world."
Michael Wolfe, author of The Hadj: An American's Pilgrimage to Mecca.
