Islam
One of the world's foremost commentators on religious affairs on the history (and destiny) of the world's most misunderstood religion. In the public mind, Islam is a religion of extremes: it is the world's fastest growing faith; more than three-quarters of the world's refugees are Islamic; it has produced government by authoritarian monarchies in Saudi Arabia and ultra-republicans in Iran.Whether we are reading about civil war in Algeria or Afghanistan, the struggle for the soul of Turkey, or political turmoil in Pakistan or Malaysia, the Islamic context permeates all these situations. Karen Armstrong's elegant and concise book traces how Islam grew from the other religions of the book, Judaism and Christianity; introduces us to the character of Muhammed; and demonstrates that for much of its history, the religion has been a force for enlightenment that promoted liberties for women and allowed the arts and sciences to flourish. ISLAM shows how this progressive legacy is today often set aside as the faith struggles to come to terms with the economic and political weakness of most of its believers and with the forces of modernity itself.

What is the difference between creative and imaginative?
Creativity involves the ability to generate new ideas, concepts, or solutions, often through the use of original thinking or artistic expression. It is the process of bringing something new into existence. On the other hand, imagination is the ability to form mental images, sensations, or concepts that are not present in one's immediate surroundings. It is the act of visualizing or conceptualizing something that is not currently real or tangible. In essence, creativity is the act of producing something new, while imagination is the act of envisioning something that may or may not exist.

Muzharul Islam
Although Muzharul Islam (1923–2012) is already regarded as an important pioneer of tropical Modernity, his work is hardly known internationally outside the context of its development in today’s Bangladesh.This first internationally published monograph presents Islam’s career, approach and a series of exceptional buildings and projects to a wider audience. Many themes that shape current global architectural debate are already addressed in the groundbreaking ideas and buildings of Muzharul Islam: climate-sensitive architecture, overcoming colonial mindsets, social engagement and self-sufficiency are aspects that Islam unceasingly investigated from the beginning of his career in the early 1950s. His ideas are no less relevant today than those of Balkrishna Vithaldas Doshi and Charles Correa, translating the often abstract conceptual construct of Modern building into a sensorial, approachable and contextual architecture that naturally integrates its users’ way of life. Islam, who studied in the USA and England in the 1950s and 1960s, called for Modern architecture that was compatible with the local climate and culture, without lapsing into provincialism or unthinking internationalism.In keeping with his ideal of intercultural dialogue, he managed to attract international protagonists such as his teacher Paul Rudolph, his fellow student Stanley Tigerman and ultimately Louis I.Kahn to carry out important building tasks in his homeland. Numerous contemporary photographs, plans and reproductions of Islam’s masterful original drawings take the readership on a voyage of discovery.Essays by former companions and the editors present multifaceted perspectives on Islam’s work, placing him within a historical context and current global interconnections.

What do you think of videos that make fun of Islam?
Videos that make fun of Islam are disrespectful and hurtful to the millions of people who practice the religion. They perpetuate negative stereotypes and contribute to the spread of misinformation and intolerance. It is important to remember that freedom of speech should be exercised responsibly and with respect for others' beliefs. Instead of making fun of Islam, we should strive to promote understanding, empathy, and mutual respect among people of different faiths.

Why can one make fun of Christianity, but not of Islam?
One can make fun of Christianity without facing severe consequences because Christianity has been a dominant religion in many Western societies for centuries, and as a result, it has been subject to criticism and satire. On the other hand, Islam is a religion that is deeply revered by a large number of people, and in some cases, making fun of Islam can be seen as disrespectful and offensive. Additionally, there are cultural and political sensitivities surrounding Islam, and criticism or satire of the religion can be perceived as contributing to negative stereotypes and prejudices against Muslims. Therefore, there is a greater reluctance to make fun of Islam due to the potential for causing harm or offense.

Can one convert from Sunni Islam to Shia Islam?
Yes, it is possible for someone to convert from Sunni Islam to Shia Islam. Conversion between the two branches of Islam is allowed, as both branches recognize each other as Muslims. The process of conversion typically involves declaring the Shahada (the Islamic declaration of faith) and embracing the beliefs and practices of Shia Islam. However, it is important to note that conversion should be a personal decision based on sincere belief and understanding of the differences between the two branches.
