Why has radical Islam become such a deadly threat and why does it dominate the Muslim world? A quarter-century ago; Tawfik Hamid was recruited into Jamaa Islamiya; a terror group led by Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri; the man who replaced Osama bin Laden to become the leader of al-Qaeda. Eventually and miraculously; Dr. Hamid recognized the insidious nature of violent jihad and rejected its distortions of the Quran; the holy book of the Muslim faith. Ever since; he has pursued a path of reformation within Islam by writing new interpretations of the book's key texts and by sharing his message in mosques. Inside Jihad reveals Dr. Hamid's insights about the Islamic terror movement drawn from his personal experiences. As a medical doctor and a psychologist; he helps readers understand the jihadist mindset. He also explains the meaning of jihad and the role that sex; petrodollars and the hijab for women play in its proliferation. And he details his bold plan for Islamic reformation that would eventually change the minds of jihadists and stop their reign of terror.

Review
2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Eh.By Truth tellerNo real exposition in historical context.3 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Inexpensive and still not worth the priceBy Dr. WThis little pamphlet is far too short to be much of a useful explanation of the Articles of Confederation; any educated person who can read English can themselves understand from the text of the Articles of Confederation nearly all of what little the author provides here. Far more interesting are the author's claims that his own ancestors include a large number of ancient and medieval English; Southern Confederate and other notable historical figures. And if he is to be believed; the author is quite a renaissance man. One wonders how he finds the time to achieve so much in so many different fields. If this pamphlet is an example of his expertise in political history; it seems likely his expertise in so many other areas is also a mile wide and a fraction of an inch deep.
