In the center of this reception of Islam is the concept of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ejihad\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, which has been distorted by many. On the one hand, there are some Muslims who take \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ejihad\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e as a reference point for their violent crimes against innocent people. On the other hand, the concept is intentionally used to promote fear against Islam and its adherents. This study challenges these presentations of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ejihad\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e by exploring the late Muslim theologian Said Nursi’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ejihad\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e of nonviolence. The book shows how Nursi’s teaching concerning nonviolent struggle, reconciliation, and religious tolerance has much in common with Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, as well as Martin Luther King Jr.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sayilgan, Salih","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50602195321128,"sku":"ING-ENG-2607","price":21.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/5983\/7224\/files\/51QJ1KILotL._SX331_BO1_204_203_200.jpg?v=1767117117","url":"https:\/\/cantstore.ca\/products\/an-islamic-jihad-of-nonviolence","provider":"CANT Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
