At the initiative of her 15-year-old grandson, who has faced the misunderstanding of his Muslim comrades because he celebrates Christmas, Faouzia Farida Charfi recounts their conversations and the reflections they have provoked in this new book.
According to questions asked by young people on the Internet - Is wearing a veil mandatory?, Can you look at women other than your own wife?, What is legal and illegal when you are a good Muslim? ' - she begins by denouncing an Islam of prohibitions, that of the 2.0 preachers who have taken over. However, as she shows, another Islam is possible.
With kindness and authority, Faouzia Farida Charfi relies on her experience as a woman scientist and mother, as well as her mastery of contemporary Muslim thinkers, to make accessible the knowledge of classical Islam and reformist Islam of the 19th century (Nahdha). In doing so, she offers young people the opportunity to discover a moderate Islam, far from the traditionalist vision: open, tolerant, compatible with secularism, this Islam combines freedom of conscience and spirituality.
A vibrant appeal to young people, an exhortation to reject identity isolationism.
