François Maher Presley was born in Kuwait / Pers. Golf and lived in Damascus / Syria until he was six. After school, training and many years of professional activity in Germany, he spent five years in Marrakech / Morocco. In addition, countless trips took him to over 80 countries around the world, including many to large parts of the Arab and Islamic world.
Due to his experiences and his personal concern as a native Arab, migrant and traveler between cultures and religions, the statements he makes on the subject of Islam / Islamism and Germany, the Arab culture and the reality in the Islamic countries appear authentic. Many sources show that he is not alone with his sometimes unyielding attitude, especially not with those intellectuals, artists and political refugees who have the same or a similar vita as him and can largely be seen as part of German society.
The reader learns a lot about the reasons that lead to the strange research results, to the turmoil of Arab boys and men, to the excesses of violence in families and towards the outside world, to people outside of one's own clan, to foreign life and therefore to the Enemies. It shows the connection between the habitus of the Muslims and the unrest around the world with regard to the immutability of the Koran and thus creates a compact picture in the very confusing discussion.
This combination of personal experience, explanations of the content that is easy to understand even for non-experts, background knowledge, quotations and statistics close the gaps between the many individual pieces of information in the media and create connections.
The author sees his book as a thank you to his new home in Germany. And yet his remarks are also to be understood as a warning not to jeopardize free democracy, social achievements, education that grows out of art and culture and the human dignity that has been achieved.
If one reads his notes, one realizes with the current events that it is no longer five to twelve, it is afterwards. So far, all of his predictions have come true. However, a look into the future also shows that things are going to be much worse.

Opinions

This book should be required reading for every politician, every teacher, every citizen in general. What I didn't know! Knowledge is not only power, but also the tool to be able to deal with a situation better, to adjust one's own view of the world and to deal with the facts that have been excellently researched. Although the cover doesn't seem very inviting to me, it corresponds to the content, which confronts me with the truth about Islam, the Koran (many suras are quoted and explained) and the author's visions also seriously make me think. In addition to Hamed Abdel-Samad, François Maher Presley is an indispensable educator about the Arab world and its consequences for us in Europe and especially Germany. Verena Lüthje, Kiel
Francois Maher Presley's book "Islam and Germany - Gate of Islamism into the Western World" is a rousing book that I would like to recommend to all German politicians who seem to completely misunderstand the situation in which Germany finds itself.
This book, which contains a wealth of facts that the author has compiled, sheds light on integration that has been suggested by politics, but which is rejected by the majority of Muslims. The author explains why there are parallel societies in Germany and why Muslims are not interested in adopting German values.
It shows how the disproportionately high level of educational disparity among Muslims is and explains the causes.
The image glorified by politics that trickles into the media every day does not correspond to reality, but remains a pipe dream. He describes why Islam, which has never experienced a "Reformation", is against the development. Western democratic forms of government are rejected, but the advantages are used to the full.
It turns out that the tolerance that democratic states in Europe have towards migrants of Muslim religion is viewed as a weakness.
The development that Germany and Europe will take is impressively portrayed using examples, and since the book was published, its analyzes have already become reality.
If you want to know more about our near future and the causes, you have to read this book. Ekkehart Stark, Waldheim
The book, which is by no means polemical, leaves me with the insight that the eager for integration of a "welcoming culture" seems to break the neck of German society in its previous form.

With clear facts and clear words, the author, himself a migrant from the Arab region, first gives an overview of Muslim migration in Europe and especially Germany. With the help of numerous examples, he shows how the medieval value system of Islam, its Koran with its legal system of Sharia, is still lived in the new environment of migrants in Germany. Integration is often neither wanted nor wanted. Parallel societies are consciously created by the Muslim immigrants, often with the tolerance of German society in the face of a misunderstood freedom of religion. The author makes it clear that Germany makes the big mistake of accepting and tolerating value systems of other cultures out of a misunderstood zeal for integration, even beyond the rule of law and humane borders. He urgently appeals to German society to enforce the guidelines of the constitution and jurisprudence by all means and to consistently demand them from the migrants, up to and including sanctioning non-compliance through deportation to the country of origin, as Canada does.
What was particularly disturbing for me in the presentation of the facts was how little the press draws attention to the grievances of the failing integration, because political correctness is more important at this point than a factual presentation. David Eschrich, Hamburg
A very clearly written book: facts and figures describe the situation. The relevance of the outlook described increases daily. In the appendix a lot of quotes from well-known personalities, extremely worth reading. Astrid Reick, Hamburg
