Description

In much of the Muslim world, religion is the central foundation upon which family, community, morality, and identity are built. The inextricable embedment of religion in Muslim culture has forced a new generation of nonbelieving Muslims to face the heavy costs of abandoning their parents' religion: disowned by their families, marginalized from their communities, imprisoned, or even sentenced to death by their governments.

Struggling to reconcile the Muslim society he was living in as a scientist and physician and the religion he was being raised in, Ali A. Rizvi eventually lost his faith. Discovering that he was not alone, he moved to North America and promised to use his new freedom of speech to represent the voices that are usually quashed before reaching the mainstream media - those of Atheist Muslims.

The Atheist Muslim recounts the journey that allows Rizvi to criticize Islam - as one should be able to criticize any set of ideas - without demonizing his entire people. Emotionally and intellectually compelling, his personal story outlines the challenges of modern Islam and the factors that could help lead it toward a substantive, progressive reformation.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"By demanding a space for questioning Islam openly that does not devolve into attacking individual Muslims, the work pushes towards the possibility of a cultural Islam that maintains family and ethnic traditions without requiring belief." ( Publishers Weekly)

Solid arguments - and a very personal story

Ali Rizvi shines a light on a perspective that's so rarely shown in the media - that of ex-Muslims. Muslims who leave their faith are often shunned by their families and communities, while some face even greater consequences -- up to and including death. This is why so many of them stay quiet, often in the closet for their entire lives. Here, Rizvi bravely shares his personal story and outlines the many logical reasons why he left Islam. He is able to speak rationally and critically about the religion without demonizing its followers - Muslims - who are, after all, his family and friends. In the age of "Islamophobia", this book is a must-read for anyone who believes in equality and justice for ALL. Read this to gain a point of view that you've probably never heard before. #Audible1.

Very enlightening!

The narrator was easy to listen to and the author provides an education on Muslims around the world. He relays his well informed views of life and religion, and how he got there in a way that's easy to understand..

Unfortunately falls short of making solid arguments

The author’s upbringing and story was interesting in regards to his development and views on life and existence. I found many arguments contradicting, with many assumptions and “you can find” type statements with not enough factual information to back his claim. Overall disliked.
