Islam: a Comprehensive Introduction

Islam: A Comprehensive Introduction is an extensive study of the contents of Islam by Javed Ahmad Ghamidi (b. 1951). It is an effort which spans almost two decades of both creative and critical thinking. This attempt to expound the contents of Islam is not a new one. Preceding Ghamidi is an illustrious series of names who have ventured forth to present Islam the way they have understood it. All these efforts are commendable and merit deep deliberation. A serious student should perhaps conduct a comparative study to gauge the approaches followed by each.
