Abstract:
The world needs this book and it needs it now. No Truth Without Beauty brings to light the truth about women and Islam through a painstaking verse-by-verse analysis and comparison between the words in the Qu’ran attributed to God and the interpretations of those words proffered by men. Whether as part of a school curriculum or on the “required reading” list for anyone interested in bringing about a new world, this book has the potential to educate and to transform perceptions about the Qur’an and Islam across cultures and faith traditions. It is a beautifully and lovingly written text by an author whose courage, scholarship and commitment to Truth is inspiring. Leena El-Ali has opened my heart and my mind. I was brought to a place of joy, a deeper appreciation and understanding of Islam, God’s beauty and the power that we all have within our hearts to transform the world.”
