Summary

One day, an American on the verge of converting to Islam said to one of the editors, 'Please, I fear I am about to make the biggest mistake of my life. Please give me one solid reason not to convert.' This is the book Joel Richardson wishes he had at that moment. Powerful, often shocking but always heartfelt, these essays from over a dozen individuals who have left Islam -- often in fear for their lives -- are remarkable for their honesty. The stories of how these men and women freed themselves from this repressive and brutal religion are not just inspirational, but present a searing challenge to those Westerners determined to perpetuate the "Islam is a religion of peace" myth at all costs.
