An introduction to Islam by way of potions and spells, dreams and demons
It isn’t hard to find a book about Islam or Muslims. It is hard, however, to find a really good one. Some of the more popular titles are actually terrible, if not malevolent. Swap out “Islam” for “Judaism,” for example, and Glenn Beck’s “It IS About Islam” reads like a Nazi screed. Part of the problem is authorship: We talk about Muslims frequently, but we rarely hear from Muslims. That’s why Michael Muhammad Knight’s latest book, “Magic in Islam,” is such a treat, both for his perspective and for his scholarship. Finally, an introduction to Islam that is entertaining, intelligent and well-informed. Even if you’re well-versed in the religion, you’ll still find Knight’s historical and cultural foray to be powerful, rewarding reading.

Knight, who converted to Islam at 16, is one of the most creative Muslims writing today. He is the author of 10 witty and provocative books. Among my favorites are “Blue-Eyed Devil: A Road Odyssey Through Islamic America” and “Journey to the End of Islam,” which offer the singular viewpoint of a white Muslim surprisingly at home in a religion struggling with Islamophobia and racism within its own ranks, never mind a legacy of Western colonialism that still shapes how many, if not most, Muslims see the world. At a time when most books about Islam are sensationalist or stodgy, his are intimate exercises in autobiography, spirituality and theology.
Knight stands out all the more for tackling edgy subjects. His novel, “The Taqwacores,” imagines a Muslim punk movement, with images and ideas that some of my fellow Muslims called blasphemous; others credited the book with salvaging their relationship with a religion they found stifling. So I can hardly think of a person better placed to reintroduce Islam to America.
