Today we review Ayaan Hirsi Ali's autobiography, Infidel, which recounts her life journey from a traditional Somali upbringing marked by clan loyalty, female genital mutilation, and strict Islamic practices to her escape from an arranged marriage, asylum in the Netherlands, and eventual emergence as a prominent critic of Islam. The text details her experiences with religious extremism, political turmoil in Somalia, and the challenges of integrating into Western society. Ali's narrative highlights the contrasts between her traditional upbringing and her experiences in the West, ultimately leading to her rejection of certain Islamic traditions and her advocacy for women's rights. The book concludes with her becoming a member of the Dutch Parliament and facing significant backlash and threats.
