Thanks ,Shomi for a detailed response.

I do agree with you on some issues mentioned therein.There are 2 sources I could recommend,if you wish,one is Islamic Jihad by M.A.Khan ( an Indian-American Muslim)and Brunettegal blog.The latter appears a bit biased, though.

I reiterate why I mention the SITS-it's a warning against marriages in the mosque which hardly any book issues.Some issues will be contentious and can be contested .Many marriages are breaking these days including those within the same community.

If one reads the IJ ,one realizes how whitewashing is being systematically done and one questions the very nature of revelations.The entire history of Islamic invasions( how Islam spread) is offered with references from Persian and Arabic as well as other chronicles.The chronicles were written by those who accompanied the invaders.Another question is-whether there is anything called Islamic art?The art and architecture that passes off as Islamic has existed in those nations before Islam arrived there and was simply adopted,appropriated.The Prophet was against all art and architecture and that explains any beautiful structure or progress of such magnificence in Saudi Arabia till about one century ago.Why do I mention this?Many women travel to these nations and consider Islam beautiful.

I am trying to get this book NGBG and will get it soon.However,as with many people he also appears( at least on some websites) very controversial though popular.His wife is a white American Christian and runs a micro-financing organization.

It was indeed a pleasure,once again,reading your reply.
