'I have to be honest with you. Islam is on very thin ice with me. Through our screaming self-pity and our conspicuous silences, we Muslims are conspiring against ourselves. We're in crisis and we're dragging the rest of the world with us. If ever there was a moment for an Islamic reformation, it's now. For the love of God, what are we doing about it?'

The Trouble With Islam Today is a book written by Irshad Manji about the many troubling problems with Islam in the modern day right now. Tribal insularity, anti-semitism, status and treatment of Muslim women, and manifesto of God’s will are a few of the problems that this book addresses and discusses.

In this open letter, Irshad Manji unearths the troubling cornerstones of mainstream Islam today: tribal insularity, deep-seated anti-Semitism, and an uncritical acceptance of the Koran as the final, and therefore superior, manifesto of God's will. But her message is ultimately positive. She offers a practical vision of how Islam can undergo a reformation that empowers women, promotes respect for religious minorities, and fosters a competition of ideas. Her vision revives 'ijtihad,' Islam's lost tradition of independent thinking. In that spirit, Irshad has a refreshing challenge for both Muslims and non-Muslims: Don't silence yourselves. Ask questions---out loud. The Trouble with Islam Today is a clarion call for a fatwa-free future.

By Strong4Nita Irshad, I have just completed The Trouble with Islam Today. I could spend too much time telling you how enlightening the book is, or I can simply say that I find it cheerfully interesting, your references to Maimonides and his 'Guide to the Perplexed'. I, for one, have been perplexed at how to speak out against the Islamophobia I have seen, with little support for the contradictions that I see played out in Muslim life today. I am no longer perplexed.

I now understand why it is that such polar opposites do exist within the one faith, just as they can in other faiths. This helps me greatly.

I recommend this book to anyone wanting to support their Muslim brothers and sisters who are similarly 'perplexed'. Peace, always.
