An ePub is an open industry format known for its compatibility across e-readers and other devices, though accessing this file type does require an app or software to read. This file type is not a one-click reading experience such as a PDF or similar. View our ePub Guide to learn more. Once you purchase and then download your file from your confirmation email from us, you will not be able to immediately open and read it without one of these apps or services.
Note: Kindle readers can and should purchase ePub files to read on their Kindle devices or via the Kindle app. As of August 2022, Amazon no longer supports mobi files.
Based on a documentary of the same title, which was selected as a New York Times Critics’ Pick, A Sinner in Mecca unflinchingly showcases parts of the dangerous ideology that governs today’s ISIS and how much it has in common with Saudi Arabia’s sacred doctrine, Wahabi Islam. Sharma gives an intimate look into what went on behind the scenes of making the controversial film, as well as a deeper exploration of the stories among the Hajji pilgrims he encountered. He also reflects on news of havoc around the Muslim world, and hopes, with this book, to significantly change the rhetoric and debate around his religion.
A Sinner in Mecca is simultaneously one man’s personal odyssey as well as a groundbreaking, provocative revelation of a forbidden world.
