Islam is a world religion with adherents of all ethnicities, but more than two thirds of Muslims in Britain are of South Asian ancestry, leading many to believe that Islam is the preserve of a single community. But just as there is more to Islamic theology than Jihad and Fatwahs, there is more to the faith than Pakistani and Indian believers. In fact, in the last 2 decades, Islam has arguably become the fastest growing religion among Black people in Britain. This phenomenon is taking place at a time when the UK appears more disunited over faith, ethnicity and identity than ever before. This book provides essential insights into the impact of an often misunderstood and misrepresented faith upon one of the most culturally dynamic and expressive communities in Britain.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    A detailed and closely reasoned study of the attraction of Islam to many young black people, men in particular. In setting out his book, Richard Reddie has explained the background to various divisions within Islam and their differing beliefs, leading non-Muslims to a far greater understanding of many aspects of the religion. This is a serious read that takes time to absorb. Two of the strongest points that registered with me was many Islamists knowledge of the Bible – far exceeding that of many so-called Christians, and the support given to those converting (reverting as they believe) to Islam. Equally important that both black and white churches take heed and act accordingly.
