Have you ever wondered how religion, politics, and power have shaped the way we understand Islam today?
Manipulating the Narratives of the Divine offers a thoughtful, research-informed exploration of the complex historical and political forces that have influenced how Islam is perceived, both within and beyond the Muslim world.
Written by Sammy Q., this book takes readers on a journey through centuries of events, from early Islamic governance and sectarian divisions to colonial interventions and contemporary media portrayals. Through clear language and a balanced approach, the book explores how different narratives have been built, altered, and sometimes misunderstood.
Inside, you'll explore:
✔️ The foundational principles of Islamic leadership and justice
✔️ The political and social roots of sectarian divides
