God, Islam & The Skeptic Mind

A Study on Faith, Science, Religious Diversity, Ethics and Evil

How do we know God exists? Is faith Compatible with science? Why is there evil and suffering? Are my actions free or determined? How should we view religious diversity? Does ethical behavior require God? This work offers erudite, compelling and fresh answers to these questions and more in an accessible language that respond to the challenges presented by the Age of Skepticism and Science. In doing so, the authors provide a balanced approach representing not only theistic and atheistic perspectives, but also a much needed Islamic point of view that has largely been ignored or misunderstood. “… an invaluable source that comprehensively deals with the most common philosophical, spiritual and moral confusions plaguing so many young people today. Such a work was not only long overdue but a must have for those who have such fundamental questions not to mention the activists and faith based counselors that are engaged with the youth community all over the world.” - Nouman Ali Khan, Founder and CEO of Bayyinah “A much needed book! While other books on Islam, including my own, focus on faith groups that already believe in an existence of God, this book directly addresses questions from skeptics, and answers the primordial questions that are posed by people that doubt the existence of a Supreme Being.”- Zia Sheikh, PhD, author of Islam: Silencing the Critics, and Imam of the Islamic Center of Irving, Texas
