Son of Hamas: A Gripping Account of Terror, Betrayal, Political Intrigue, and Unthinkable Choices





Reading this book gave me a better and a more personal perspective on the conflict in the Middle East. It gives perspective to the religion of Islam as shared by someone who practiced that faith until he began to read and compare the Bible to the Quaran. It is the story of a Muslim who fell in love with Jesus and publicly converted to Christianity despite all that would cost him personally.

As I read this book, I was amazed at God's sovereignty and how He selects individuals for His divine purposes. God's protective hand covered Mosab throughout his life, long before he found Jesus. There was a journey to that faith that would help many others in the telling of his story.

This is the kind of book you don't want to put down. It's a fast read. It is compelling, enlightening and thought-provoking. And it is timely in the world we are living in.

This book provides a very interesting account of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, from the perspective of an insider and influential player. Having read a lot of books on the issue, this was the first time I really ended up with the feeling of having truly understood the roots of the conflict and the prospects of it ever being solved. The colloquial, non-academic tone of the book also makes its reading very enjoyable.
