Abstract

Frederick M. Denny's islam and the Muslim Community and John Alden Williams's The Word of islam contain some common concerns. The authors do, however, take different approaches on some topics. They also use vastly different source material.
Both books emphasize a certain difference between Muslim and Western modes of thought. Williams points out when quoting hadiths from collections of ad-Bukhari that "every mention of the Prophet in the originals is followed by the invocation 'God bless him and give him peace.' It is omitted here because the effect for non-Muslims may seem repetitive and monotonous, but Muslims do not tire of repeating it" (56).
