About this listen

Western countries are ignorant of true Islamic values, says Nonie Darwish. Darwish is an Egyptian American, former Muslim human rights activist who is frustrated with mainstream America's talk of tolerance and assimilation. In Wholly Different, Darwish sets non-Muslims straight about tenets of Islam that are incompatible with free society.

For the first time, Darwish tells the whole story of her personal break with Islam, starting with the brutal physical violence and rigid class system she witnessed and culminating with the spine-tingling visit she received from President Nasser after her father, Fedayeen commander Mustafa Hayez, was assassinated by Israeli Defense Forces. She lays out the "seventh-century values" of Islam that religious extremists are so intent on protecting through global warfare - values that set Islam apart from the other Abrahamic religions.

Very helpful, giving a clear understanding of Islam, from someone who's been there. A must read for anyone wanting to know the truth.

Engaging, clear

This book was such an eye opening experience. I’ve never been a believer in anything. I’m still not. This book wasn’t angling to convert at all, as I was slightly weary of. However, I have a whole new appreciation for the wonders christianity brought the world. I had no idea how much of the societal rights and freedom, we non-believers of today, cherish and value, are actually a product of a truly revolutionary humanitarian religious movement.
And how important it is, that we never forget the necessary foundation that need to be in place for our societies to remain liberal and free.
It simply celebrates all the amazing things we westerners risk taking for granted, and serves as a much needed reminder to be proud and grateful of all the good our past has given us.
Very touching, highly needed and … a bit scary tbh.
Go read!!!

As an atheist, I absolutely loved it!!
