Atheism is trending. Social media has ushered in an era of hyper individualism, where ethics change as frequently as Twitter's top tags. Even though Islam is still the world's fastest-growing religion, countless people refute their faith every day - citing Darwinism or the inexplicable suffering of the human spirit.

Based on true events, this book is a conversation between an uncle and a nephew who has lost his faith. The uncle, an Imam who sits at the heart of his community to set a moral and ethical compass, is challenged by his nephew, who poses difficult questions about faith. What follows is an open and honest dialogue which covers popular philosophical arguments and makes a case for the existence of God.

The author is exposed to atheism on a daily basis and this book is a timely contribution towards scholarly literature. It is an excellent resource for parents, teachers and mentors, as well as anyone whose faith is wavering.
