William Merrifield's Newly Released "What Every American and Christian Should Know about Islam" Is an Opus That Illuminates Readers on the Islamic Faith and Doctrine

MEADVILLE, Pa., Dec. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "What Every American and Christian Should Know about Islam": an in-depth book that tackles the profoundness of Islam and its teachings and laws for the understanding of laypeople. "What Every American and Christian Should Know about Islam" is the creation of published author, William Merrifield, a Southern Baptist pastor and chaplain with a "Master of Divinity Degree" from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a "Doctor of Ministry Degree" from Westminster Theological Seminary.

Merrifield shares, "It is not the intent of this book to provide commentary to the whole of the Qur'an. What it does propose is to cover those areas of the Qur'an that will give the reader an awareness of the Islamic world's understanding of its relationship to the rest of the world and to the world's other religions. One would think there would be some grand plan for the writing of such a book. The truth is, it was ongoing discussions on Facebook that led to a two-year study to determine the truth of the matter. From this study came a correlated and transliterated copy of the Qur'an, which readers will be given the opportunity if they so wish to request a free copy. Who are the Muslims? What are their factions, how do they relate to the world and to one another? What is Shari'a law, and how does it equate to national and state laws? Is Shari'a law and therefore Islamic law compatible with western values? These are but some of the questions this book seeks to answer."

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, William Merrifield's new book provides insightful accounts that aim to explain the true nature of Islam and how it makes an impact throughout the nation.

This book invites an open mind and heart in further understanding this Abrahamic faith and how it correlates to the Western culture and norms.
