"in 2009 I wrote a letter to Huston Smith telling him that in my teens I had taken a course on world religions at Boston University and the professor had used as textbook Smith’s “The Religions of Man” (now titled “The World’s Religions”)."
"A fifty year old book which helps to understand age old religions, and from one mans perspective not a lot of self promoting thought."
"Huston Smith, one of America's most respected religion scholars, provides in this book a superb resource for both classroom and non-academic reading."
"Great book written from a non biased perspective."

No God but One: Allah or Jesus? (with Bonus Content): A Former Muslim Investigates the Evidence for Islam and Christianity
Having shared his journey of faith in the New York Times bestselling Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus , Nabeel Qureshi now examines Islam and Christianity in detail, exploring areas of crucial conflict and unpacking the relevant evidence. In Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus , Nabeel Qureshi recounted his dramatic journey, describing his departure from Islam and his decision to follow Christ. Nabeel shares stories from his life and ministry, casts new light on current events, and explores pivotal incidents in the histories of both religions, providing a resource that is gripping and thought-provoking, respectful and challenging. -- Collin Hansen, editorial director, The Gospel Coalition. With clarity and precision, Nabeel takes his reader through the principal competing truth claims of Islam and Christianity, demonstrating through his own personal search how the Christian world view makes a compelling case for our allegiance while that of Islam falls far short.
Reviews
"In NO GOD BUT ONE ALLAH OR JESUS, Dr. Nabeel Qureshi explains his journey from Islam to Christianity, and details his reasons for doing so. The author was for many years a dedicated believer in Islam, but he discovered that his reasons for rejecting Christianity were not nearly as solid as he had been told: "Examining the claims of Islam and Christianity over four years, I went from utter conviction in Islam to reluctantly embracing the gospel." Of course, this sets a major divide between the two religions: "At no point is the schism between Christian and Islamic theologies broader than on the person of Jesus. The author emphasizes that "the central claims of Christianity are explicitly rejected by Islam." It's not just a little difference--it's a "fundamental incompatibility between Islam and Christianity...the central claims of Christianity are explicitly rejected by Islam." As another example, the crucifixion is central to Christianity, but this very core of the Christian faith is explicitly rejected by Islam: "The Quran teaches the exact opposite: Jesus was not killed, nor was he crucified...He either died by crucifixion or he did not. The Quran holds in Islam the place that Jesus holds in the Christian faith. In summary, I found NO GOD BUT ONE ALLAH OR JESUS to be a well-researched, helpful explanation of the most significant differences between Islam and Christianity."
"If you enjoy historical, objective, and accurate evidence that provides reasons for faith and support to the claims of Christianity -- then this book will be one you enjoy. I enjoyed this book enough to purchase 10 more to give to others!"
"Great book."
"In the second part, he lays out the evidences (or lack thereof) of Islam and Christianity, encouraging the reader to ponder the truth claims that are found within this book and make a decision to pursue the truth or reject it."
"As a lifelong Christian, I've always had certain questions about my faith that I didn't know, or understand, the answers to."
"An interesting take on what Islam teaches on Christianity, and how Christianity does fit history while Islam is anti-historical."

Its dead level honesty, its passion, its exalted purpose, will make it stand as a monument to the most painful truth.” — The Nation “The most important book I’ll ever read, it changed the way I thought, it changed the way I acted. --Wendy Smith Biography, published in 1965, of the American black militant religious leader and activist who was born Malcolm Little.

Reviews
"From Watching his interviews and speeches on YouTube, I was able to match his words from this book to the voice I heard on the videos. A book as told by the Man himself in his own words without any tampering from the writer."
"The black man must be retaught , reeducated, and made to know he is a man like everyone else . Malcolm you were misunderstood , when you were doing was responding to society's treatment ."
"Especially now that we seem to be repeating a lot of the horrible rracist human habits that caused this country to implode during the 50's/60's."
"It takes the readers on a journey on Malcolm X's life, from the beginning until the end."
"About half way through I ran out of steam."
"AS OSSIE DAVIS COINED HIM , WHEN IT WAS ALL SAID & DONE. BROTHER MALCOMLM " WAS OUR SHINNING BLACK PRINCE " WHO DIDN'T HESITATE TO DIE FOR HIS PEOPLE !!!"
"To all muslims (especially muslims living in the west): I strongly recomend the reading of this book; maybe you will find in this martyr the inspiration that you've lacked 'till now to stand and study your faith."
"However, Penguin Modern Classics has reprinted this essential piece of literature anew-WITHOUT THE ORIGINAL EPILOGUE or Ossie Davis' contributions to the work. Anyone who has read the complete Malcolm X Autobiography in depth knows fully well that this is untrue, an absolute falsity and misrepresentation that can lead to dangerous miscalculations."

God's War on Terror: Islam, Prophecy and the Bible
His design from time immemorial, regarding man's destiny, is filled with countless details about the future, especially the coming war with an Islamic coalition against Christianity and Israel. His paternal grandfather was an associate of Haj-Ameen Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who was an ally of Adolph Hitler, who conspired with the Nazis during the holocaust.
Reviews
"Shoebat is uniquely qualified to write on the subject of terror, Islam and the Holy Bible, based on his indoctrination into the world of terror; his intimate knowledge of Islam and his careful study of the Holy Bible following his conversion to Christianity."
"Although satan has his Muslim army in place, and is working his deception in the middle east, it remains to be revealed what is coming for the remainder of the world, be it caliphate or new age satanic/demonic deception--we are so close, and unbelievers everwhere are buying into it all so easily, naively (ignorantly) and way too greedily already."
"This book is impressively researched opening the readers eyes to information passed over by hasty or miss informed scholars. First you will miss a very insulting tone in regards to your cultural upbringing which might lead you to putting the book down. You will be given the tools to facilitate through events still future as we exit from the church age and enter the millennium based on historical and sound Biblical data."
"This is a very scholarly, yet highly readable, book. Yet in the book itself we are told that the people who actually destroyed the Temple in 70 A.D. were the descendants of Ishmael, at the instigation of the Roman Empire."
"Easy reading, easy to understand, well explained, well documented and WELL supported with Scripture."
"Thought I knew about end times prophecy... and knew Islam was a major player for Satan, but this is truly eye opening and should be required reading in public high schools.. not to show hate, but to show truth."
"Moreover, when you follow Jesus you will not be afraid of the horrors of this world, or of Islam, or any organization of men who do what is evil and only have the power to kill your body; you will fear only the living God, who Jesus said has the power to kill your body and soul, and cast them into hell."
