Through the ambassador of the UAE to Russia comes a striking and seductive exploration of what it means to be a Muslim in the 21st century. In a series of personal words to his sons, Omar Saif Ghobash offers a short and highly listenable manifesto that tackles our current global turmoil with the training of an experienced diplomat and the personal responsibility of any father. Today's young Muslims will be tomorrow's leaders, and yet way too many are susceptible to extremist propaganda that seems omnipresent inside our technological years. The losing question, Ghobash argues, is how average Muslims can unite to discover a voice that is true to Islam while positively and productively participating in today's world. Exactly what does it mean to be a good Muslim? What is the concept of a good life? And is it acceptable to operate and openly condemn those who take the Islamic faith and twist it to match their own misguided political agendas? In taking a hard take a look at these apparently simple questions, Ghobash promotes his sons to face issues others demand are not relevant or not suitable or that could even be Islamophobic. These words provide as a clear-eyed ideas for the next generation of Muslims to comprehend how to be faithful to their religion but still navigate through the complexities of today's world. They also reveal an intimate view into a global many are unfamiliar with and offer to offer an understanding of the everyday problems Muslims face around the globe.
