You must read this one!

Unfortunately It is not often you are presented with a Muslim scholar who is as progressive, current and articulate as Dr. Farid Esack.Everyone who sincerely believes in the concept of "Progressive Islam" or even is curious about the concept, as well as the practice, should read this one.May feel a bit heavy at the begining, but Esack's intellect and his sense of humour will draw you in quickly. I highly recommend it.
