"Considering its prominent role in many faith traditions, surprisingly little has
been written about hospitality within the context of religion, particularly Islam.
In her new book, Mona Siddiqui, a well-known media commentator, makes the first major
contribution to the understanding of hospitality both within Islam and beyond. She
explores and compares teachings within the various Muslim traditions over the centuries,
while also drawing on materials as diverse as Islamic belles lettres, Christian reflections
on almsgiving and charity, and Islamic and Western feminist writings on gender issues.
Applying a more theological approach to the idea of mercy as a fundamental basis for
human relationships, this book will appeal to a wide audience, particularly readers
interested in Islam, ethics, and religious studies."--Publisher's Web site
