‘Islam and the Future of Tolerance: A Dialogue’ – Sam Harris & Maajid Nawaz . Libreria is hitting 2017 running and we will be selecting three of our top picks every week, to keep you informed and prepared for the year ahead – after all, chance favours a prepared mind. Our first pick begins with a dialogue on religion from Sam Harris and Maajid Nawaz. Writing in @nytimes Sunday Book Review, Canadian author Irshad Manjinov touches on an engaging discourse: “How refreshing to read an honest yet affectionate exchange between the Islamist-turned-liberal-Muslim Maajid Nawaz and the neuroscientist who advocates mindful atheism, Sam Harris. ‘Islam and the Future of Tolerance’ begins on an impolitic note. Harris tells Nawaz that to reform Islamic practices one must ’pretend’ that ‘jihad is just an inner spiritual struggle, whereas it’s primarily a doctrine of holy war.’ Nawaz counters: ’Religion doesn’t inherently speak for itself’ because ‘no scripture, no book, no piece of writing has its own voice.’ Human interpretation is everything.” Hear, hear
