They carry on, in the creative space between two wilfully ignorant civilisations.Īslan locates Islam in the historical landscape, unpicks myths and gives us a rounded Prophet, who was a man steeped in the influence of Christianity and Judaism. Ramadhan is labelled "dangerous", denied a visa to take up a post in the US Aslan is branded a "fundamentalist". So much easier to do business with tyrants, autocrats and lackeys. However, confused and solipsistic, the authorities in the US and UK cannot deal with audacious reformers whose intellect challenges their stereotypes and geopolitical games. Aslan is acutely perceptive when he writes that 11 September was as much a manifestation of this clash as a blow to the superpower. ![]()
