Narrative As Books Even Angels Ask: A Journey to Islam in America
Reading this book was a turning point in my life. I was not any longer the same person that I was before it. I was not any longer wishing I hadn't been, or wishing the wicked human race hadn't been. For the first time in my life, I felt how I was so lucky when I was chosen from nonexistence to be me, to be precisely as Salma... I wrote those four lines of poetry- Even nice angels could not but ask: among all naught why man to be? Lord answered them: It is man task to live and learn, thus man may see.Particularize Out Of Books Even Angels Ask: A Journey to Islam in America

I am not good at writing reviews but this book is pushing me to do so. I loved this book. I don't know from where to start , but this book touched me in diffrent ways, spirtiual, logical and intellectual. Each chapter can be a book by itself.Even the pure angels asked why to create a human, so who can prohibit asking and wondering or force us to accept ideas as it is.Thank you Dr.Lang, I really wish that the muslim community can have more people like you.Reading this book is like as if I'm taking the journey to Islam alongside the author (not as an atheist, though). When stumbled upon some of his provoking thoughts, I had to take a detour for a while - out of curiosity - to research on the issues or topics that he argued about. I must say that the reading experience is a fulfilling one, and I love the fact that this book makes my reading list grows exponentially.Jeffrey Lang was born a Christian, but somewhere in his life - just like any other
An ex-atheist Jeffrey Lang put together and interesting book called Even Angels Ask which I just finished reading. Lang is an Associate Prof. in Math at Kansas University who converted to Islam in his late 20s. I always find perspectives of ex-atheists on Islam to be very interesting as it challenges our traditional viewpoints. And whether you agree with their angle or dont, they are still compelling. In this book, Lang doesnt discuss how he became Muslim, but rather he questions and answers
one of the books that literally changed my life
An honest memoir from a Muslim convert..I could feel his words were coming from the heart.

Really a great book! I am diffently reading it again! It was really a pleasent reading. I was expecting from the book to give me direct answer but what he gave me is a better way of thinking to think for myselfI wish many of the struggles that are mentioned on the book end sooner theb later.The reason why i wanna read this book again is because i felt that i didn't get everything in it to the fullest, i think there id more that i can observe from this book, so i need to get more wiser, to learn
