Warriors of the Prophet

Based on eyewitness accounts and original interviews, this work provides a vivid portrayal of the evolving political and cultural role played by Islamic fundamentalist movements. Huband reveals how Western powers have contributed to the rise of Islamic movements by their earlier support of the Afgan Islamic resistance and gives detailed accounts of his discussions with militant groups, Muslim scholars, and political opponents of the Islamic movements involved in the phenomenon of political Islam in the late 1990s.
