Summary: An excellent and readable examination of Islam
Comment: ... I have read Islam Revealed and find it to be a very good book about Islam. Dr. Shorrosh is a Palestinian Arab, has lived most of his life around Muslims,and has debated the subject of Islam for years.
Dr. Shorrosh critically examines the life of Muhammad and the history of Islam, including the violent battles waged against any people who did not accept Islam as a revealed religion. To this day Islam is a religion that encourages violences against any who do not accept its teachings. Dr. Shorrosh also reveals the tremendous number of historical errors and contradictions in the Quaran concerning, among others, the genealogy of Abraham; the life of Moses; the error of confusing Mary, the mother of Jesus, as the sister of Aaron; the error as to the birthplace of Jesus; and the life of Jesus.
Dr. Shorrosh also writes extensively about the inferior role of women in Islam. A Muslim husband may divorce his wife without a single reason and may have up to 4 wives. He may beat his wives if they disobey him.
For those who are interested in a scholarly, historical and theological comparison between Christianity and Islam, this book is an excellent start.

Summary: THE 6TH PRINTING IS ELOQUENT ENOUGH
Comment: The popularity of Islam Revealed in the English speaking world speaks volumns concerning its validity and vitality. It's a monumental bestseller dealing with the religion, prophet, facts and fallacies of Islam. The excellent book includes the debate material which was presented at Royal Albert Hall in London on the topic "Is Jesus God". The majority of the presentation at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham, England concerning the debate "The Quran or the Bible: Which is God's Word" is found in the book. (Incidentally there were over 11,000 people present during the 5 hour historic debate.) Amazingly enough the author has met several converted Moslems who came to Christ as a result of reading Islam Revealed! Other individuals who were seeking to make a decisions for Christianity or Islam emerged into the Christian Faith once they read the book. Some colleges and universi- ties utilize this critically acclaimed document as a testbook in comparative religions or as a research workbook.

The author has received numerious threats because of his debates and book from fanatics. So far he has survived three attempts but keeps going in his attempt to present the truth in love.

Summary: hatred and pretenses
Comment: I am still searching amazon for a single book that can critisize islam logically; not just emotionally or in a baised manner. What is the relation between a religion and the bad acts of criminals who are holding this religion_we have to think about a statistic study of the world criminal and try to correlate their acts with their religion!!! Some writters change facts and try to mislead western readers with pretenses and fake evidences. Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), for example, did not claim that he came with a new relgion, but he affirmed that Allah(Gad) sent Mossa and Jesus ( PBUT) before him to jews and then he came with the final holly book not only for the Arabs but for all mankind_Islam is the extension of the original principles of Ibrahim (PBUH) which are continued till Mossa's era, Jesus' era and end up with Mohammed's. Thus, the essence of the religion is the same. Quran, the holy book of Muslims, did not mention that Mary has conducted adultry or Jesus is the son of God, but clarified the situation that Allah created him like Adam who has been created from nothing with Allah's order). For any rational this is illogic because if Mohammed has written Quran, he should praise the idol of Arabs and praise their leaders( not to attack them clearly in Quran and praise and advocate Jesus). If anybody read Quran, he will not that the number of times that Allah has mentioned Jesus are more than the numbers of mentioning Mohammed. Quran has no verses carrying any one of the phophet Mohammed's family (his wifes, his daughter....etc) but there is a verse entitled the family of Imeran and other entitled Marry. Also, Quran comes with evidence that Eve(adam's wife) was not responsible for leaving the paradise( first sin of mankind), but Satan (devil) was. Women in islam have a lot of privileges than men and people who are interested can read about marriage, for example in islam and the rights of women. Meanwhile the regulations that Quran has imposed in their believers are accepted from both genders.....what is the point here to argue about if women are completely happy with such regulations. Many verses in Quran have affrimed on both men and women are similar in their worships , thier rewards, and both are created from the same source and the differeces are only physiological. If Muslims, male and female, accepted such regulations and found them the best way to build a sciety, why some people argue about that with fake evidences.
People who are saying that Quran has been written by Mohammed has to prove that. Quran has many complicated relations and regulations for all aspects of our life and people should find many mistakes and contraductions if it were written by a person. Quran took about creation, about embroyonic stages of mankind developemnt, the creation of the universe, deep ocean.....how an illiterate person, like Mohammed, was able to know that. when I read Quran for the first time, I expected to find all aspects of the old life and the desert( the enviroment around him) not a scientific events that science can come one day and reject and mock at the person who described them. Meanwhile, Quran asked mankind to search and think about the creation and how Allah has created us and the universe_It is a general invitation to search and to know. I do recommend readers to read from a reliable source about islam to judge it correctly and then read whatever you want because once you got the truth, it is very difficult to be misleaded with any surperfacial discussions.
