Many scientists have come to realize that science and religion can nurture each other. One example was the flowering of science in the first centuries of Islam. For Dr. Imad-ad-Dean Ahmad, a Muslim and an astronomer, studying the universe is an expression of faith. Scientists and non-scientists should appreciate the insights in this passionate and lucid book. (Dr. LeRoy E. Doggett, Chief of Almanac Office, U.S. Naval Observatory).

Anyone in search of Reality, must of necessity encounter Sufis on his way, as they are the doorway to Reality. If you wish to stand for an instant on the threshold of this Reality spend an hour in the company of Abu Sa'id, reflecting on his dicta and exempla . . . so sensitively translated here. (Dr. Leonard Lewisohn, Editor, Classical Persian Sufism: from its Origins to Rumi). Abu Sa'id is best known for establishing spiritual centers and rules of Sufi conduct which are followed to this day by traditional Sufi orders. He also introduced musical elements (sama') and dance into the Sufi's ritual. The 100 stories narrated here offer an excellent view into the mystical wisdom of Abu Sa'id and insightful commentary on the teaching methodology of one of the most significant figures in the development of Sufism. (Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar, Author of Sufi Expressions of the Mystic Quest).

Beginning with the origins of Islam in Arabia and continuing to the African empires of Ghana, Mali and Songhai, Mr. Rashad examines the influence the religion had on the peoples of that continent and the impact of slavery on African Muslims brought to the Americas. He offers several biographical sketches of pre-Civil War Muslim slaves and how Islam was reintroduced into the United States at the turn of the century. 
Mr. Rashad describes the rise of Islamic and Black Power movements in urban areas of the U.S. and presents vivid portraits of such powerful historical figures as Marcus Garvey, Drew Ali, Elijah Muhammad, and Malcolm X. The book also includes biographical profiles of current leaders such as Minister Louis Farrakhan, Imam Jamil Al-Amin (H. Rap Brown), Imam W.D. Mohammed, and many others who have contributed to the present African-American Islamic consciousness. The chapters on Elijah Muhammad and Louis Farrakhan are particularly revealing, shedding much light on the origins and teachings of the Nation of Islam.
