In the fifteen years since the book was first released, Jesus and Islam has been well received, finding its way to scores of nations and stirring thinking. Here are just four reader responses:
-Jesus and Islam is an easy read. Douglas and Aziz have an excellent ability to make Islamic concepts and interpretations easy to understand from a layperson's point of view. Their book certainly opened my eyes to Islam from a completely different perspective.
-Awesome! I have tried to read some books on Islam to familiarize myself with the faith but could never connect with them; they were difficult and drawn out. Jesus and Islam has done wonders for me in my understanding of the Muslim faith.
-After reading this book, I am now re-thinking everything... [I am also re-examining] my level of tolerance and judgment of Muslims. I hypocritically judged people I had never met, even as I called Jesus Lord. That must stop.
-I was hoping for a caustic attack on Islam. Instead, I found what I had been looking for: a deep challenge to the darkness of my hatred. This book is unlike any I have ever read on the subject, offering a solid explanation of Islam while at the same time promoting unconditional love for our fellow humans.
