Description
What is the hijab when it is not a woman’s headscarf? Are churches allowed to be built in Islamic countries? Why can an encounter with an Islamic fundamentalist be dangerous for a Muslim scholar? Why would a deeply religious Muslim woman refuse to wear a burkini? Are there Muslims who eat pork? How does the Muslim community in the Czech Republic differ from those elsewhere in Europe? These are just some of the questions addressed by this book, which seeks, through four interviews with respected Czech experts, to bring readers closer to a Muslim world that remains incomprehensible to many. Diplomat Hynek Kmoníček, Arabists Miloš Mendel and Petr Pelikán, and journalist Břetislav Tureček offer their individual perspectives on the politics, religion, history, culture and mentality of Muslim civilisation, dispelling numerous myths and demonstrating how varied and paradoxical the world of Islam really is.
