The book is a brief illustrated guide to understanding Islam in Arabic, which speaks in particular of scientific miracles in Islam, and also concerns the concepts of Islam and its perception towards the individual and society, and the gains that you achieve if you are a Muslim committed to the teachings of Islamic law. This book publishes a list of religious books directed to non-Muslims in its great impact. Therefore, specialists in the definition of Islam are keen to start translating the meanings of the Holy Quran in a non-Muslim language, followed by the other books.
This book is a brief guide to understanding Islam. It consists of three chapters.
The first chapter, `Some Evidence for the Truth of Islam,`
answers some important questions which some people ask:
Is the Qur`an truly the literal word of God, revealed by Him?
Is Muhammad (PBUH) truly a prophet sent by God?
Is Islam truly a religion from God?

@Gog the Mild and any other admin: I'm grateful to User:dying for pointing out a factual error in the article which is also present in this blurb. Prince Abdulaziz bin Abdullah was not, as I wrongly described in the article, the custodian of the Two Holy Mosques; his father was. In the article, I've introduced a clause to correct this. Apologies for my error. Pinging @TFA coordinators: in the hope that the blurb can be changed before tomorrow. MartinPoulter (talk) 10:25, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam was an exhibition held at the British Museum in London from 26 January to 15 April 2012. It was the world's first major exhibition telling the story, visually and textually, of the hajj: the pilgrimage to Mecca which is one of the five pillars of Islam. Textiles, manuscripts, historical documents, photographs, and art works from many different countries and eras were displayed to illustrate the themes of travel to Mecca, hajj rituals, and the Kaaba (depicted). The exhibition was formally opened by the then Prince Charles and was popular both with Muslims and non-Muslims, attracting nearly 120,000 adult visitors and favourable press reviews. An exhibition catalogue with essays about the hajj was published by the British Museum in 2012, along with a shorter illustrated guide to the hajj. An academic conference, linked to the exhibition, resulted in another book about the topic. (Full article...)
