The text addresses origins of Islam, interpretations of key figures and sources, and the problem of historical evidence. It reviews scripture and theology, legal and political structures, and debates whether Islam is compatible with democracy and human rights. Additional sections consider philosophical and scientific influences, Islamic mysticism, women’s roles, taboos, and the treatment of non-Muslims.","Table of Contents  \nEpigraph  \nTitle Page  \nCopyright Page  \nDedication  \nForeword  \nPreface  \nAcknowledgements  \nIntroduction  \nChapter 1-The Rushdie Affair  \nBefore 14 February 1989  \nAfter 14 February 1989  \nTrahison des Clercs  \nChapter 2-The Origins of Islam  \nArabian Idolatry  \nPilgrimage  \nThe Kaaba  \nAllah  \nZoroastrianism  \nJinns, Demons, and Other Shadowy Being  \nThe Muslim Debt to Judaism  \nChapter 3-The Problem of Sources  \nSkepticism and Doubts  \nThe Hijra or Emigration to Medina, AD. 622  \nChapter 4-Muhammad and His Message  \nPolitical Assassinations; The Massacre of the Jews  \nThe Zaynab Affair  \nThe Satanic Verses  \nThe Peace if Hudalblya  \nChapter 5-The Koran  \nThe Word of God?  \nThe Doctrines of the Koran  \nAdam and Evolution.
