NADER POURHASSAN THE CORRUPTION OF MUSLIM MINDS : This book is the result of Dr. Nader Pourhassan’s personal disillusionment with Islam as it is manifested in the modern world. The message of the Koran is resoundingly simple. We should believe in God, which of itself would encourage us to be good, and love our neighbor. If we do, we will go to Heaven: "Those who do good to men or women and have faith [in God], we will give them life, a pure life, and their reward will be greater than their actions." This message, which is stated over sixty times in the Koran, has been perverted by those who seek to promote themselves as spiritual leaders, with appalling results - most shockingly, the attacks on America on September 11th, 2001. Whether you are a Moslem, or non-Moslem, a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu, or indeed of any faith, Dr. Pourhassan hopes that you will find his comments enlightening and be inspired to read the Koran for yourself. The only way we can break the current impasse between the Moslem and non- Moslem peoples is by fostering mutual understanding of the many historical, cultural, and religious ties that bind us. GOD’S SCRIPTURE : The author, Dr. Nader Pourhassan, has researched the Koran and the Bible in depth for the last twenty years. God's Scripture is the result of his personal disillusionment with Islam as it is manifested in the modern world. The message of the Koran is resoundingly simple. We should believe in God, which would encourage us to love our neighbor. If we do, we will go to Heaven: "Those who do good to men or women and have faith (in God), we will give them life, a pure life, and their reward will be greater than their actions." This message, which is stated clearly over sixty times in the Koran, has been perverted by those who seek to promote themselves as spiritual leaders, with appalling results, most shockingly the attacks on America on September 11, 2001. His disillusionment grew as he learned about the disparity between the holy book and Islam as it is practiced today. Now, more than ever, there is an urgent need for Muslims and non Muslims alike to understand the truth about Islam, and to return to the original message of the Prophet Muhammad, and that of Jesus, that humankind should strive to be good, to love God and one another. www.ChristianMuslim.org www.SolvingReligion.com
