Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement.

Beginning with a sweetly funny, moving account of her arranged marriage, the author undercuts stereotypes and offers the refreshing view of an American life through Muslim eyes.

In 2013, just two years after the popular overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian military ousted the country's first democratically elected president - Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood - and subsequently led a brutal repression of the Islamist group.

Fawaz Gerges, one of the world's leading authorities on the Middle East, tells how the clash between pan-Arab nationalism and pan-Islamism has shaped the history of the region.

Après avoir retracé la genèse de l'islam au VIIe siècle en Arabie et la formation des grandes écoles de droit musulman aux VIIIe et IXe siècles, l'auteur met en lumière l'influence de la philosophie grecque sur la pensée islamique et la manière dont ces penseurs ont façonné un dialogue entre théologie, droit et métaphysique. L'ouvrage souligne le rôle essentiel de ces penseurs dans la transmission et la circulation des idées entre l'Orient et l'Occident au Moyen Âge, témoignant de la richesse et de la complexité de cette tradition philosophique et spirituelle.

It was the final test. A chance to win not only the love of Allah, but the love of her father - something she had never been able to earn. Esther took a deep breath and raised her hand in the air. At the age of 18, she had just volunteered to become a suicide bomber. Defying Jihad is the true story of a girl growing up under radical Islamic rule, trained to believe her ultimate purpose was to serve Allah by dying as a jihadist. But two nights before she was to leave forever, she had a dream...one that would change the course of her destiny.
