What people said about my books

“Whereas spiritual reformation is important for Rashid Shaz, in Creating a Future Islamic Civilization he claims the real revolution is needed within Islam itself. For him, the West has tried to build a man-centered world and it has failed. Collapse is inevitable as anything goes in the New Age, self-help mess of the Age of Unreason. Thus, the time has come for Islam to re-awaken and proclaim that it has more than a spiritual message. To do this, it needs an internal reformation and to get out of its medieval time-wrap to talk to the modern world. A controversial read… his call is important.”

“Some of his ideas are radical. Shaz places unconventional proposals in the book. It is for the thinking readers now to decide what can be done with them.”
