Publisher Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • 2015 Christian Book Award winner • Nabeel Qureshi describes his dramatic journey from Islam to Christianity in this expanded edition with new bonus content and reflections.
"My friend Nabeel Qureshi was courageous enough to chase down the truth with intellectual integrity, no matter the personal cost," --Lee Strobel, bestselling author of The Case for Christ.
Providing an intimate view into a loving Muslim home, Qureshi shares how he developed a passion for Islam before discovering, almost against his will, evidence that Jesus rose from the dead and claimed to be God. Unable to deny the arguments but not wanting to deny his family, Qureshi struggled with an inner turmoil that will challenge Christians, Muslims, and all those who are interested in two of the world's greatest religions and the quest for truth.
Qureshi--with great courage and intimacy--wrote this book with three major purposes in mind:
To tear down walls between two of the world's major religions by giving non-Muslim readers an insider's perspective into a Muslim's heart and mind.To equip the reader with facts and knowledge, showing the strength of the case for the gospel contrasted with the case for Islam.To portray the immense inner struggle of Muslims grappling with the gospel, including all the sacrifices and doubts that rise up along the way.
Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus is more than the memoir of a man's pursuit of answers to the most important issues of life and faith. Ultimately, it's the story about the transformative grace and mercy of the one true God.
This edition has been expanded to include:
A revised foreword and introductionA new afterword by apologist Mark Mittelberg and a reflection by Nabeel's wifeA substantially extended epilogue that shares how Nabeel told his friend David of his decision to follow Christ, how his parents found out, and moreExpert contributions from scholars and ministry leaders on each section of the book, contributions previously included only in the ebook editionAn appendix with a topical table of contents (for teaching from Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus)An appendix tackling the objection that Ahmadi Muslims--the Islamic movement that Qureshi was raised in--are not true MuslimsAnd a sneak peek prologue from Nabeel's book, No God but One: Allah or Jesus?

Know before jump and Miss God Salvation
I loved this book so much that I bought both print and audiobook too. I hated to hear the author had passed away because he would have done much more greater things to help others to believe on and become true followers of the only true God that can be trusted to keep His promises, His love for all, His Word true and He trustworthy because He will do all that He said He would do. To set free all those who have and will believe He is the only one to set us free from our sins and give us eternal life.
I am learning more about the religion that says it is a peaceful religion. It is peaceful as long as you are one of them and you are not talking negative about Islam. It has copied or stolen great deal from these two major religions the Hebrew and christianity. He was on the run for his life. when he came across some nomad Hebrew that taught him about the Hebrew and ChristianI religions and their God. After learning from them he tried to kill them. He returned to Saudi Arabia, with his new religion. He started killing all who wouldn’t join him in his new found religion that he called Islam. Islam has and still is a religion of bloodshed just like the Hebrew and Christianity With major exception, they didn’t forcing anyone to become a part of the Hebrew religion. Christianity is the only religion in the world who center figure is alive. The Christian Crusaders used violent to return Jerusalem and the land that God had given to His people Israel known as Hebrew also.

Very few Christian apologists can communicate and resonate with people the way Nabeel could. This book felt like having a conversation with a friend. Couldn’t recommend this book any more! One of the favorite books I’ve ever read.
Great book!
Listen to it and you will not be disappointed!
