Khawaja said the problem goes beyond isolated sentences to what he described as the series' overarching anti-Muslim tone and message. "A book isn't just a set of quotes — it's a conclusion you walk away with," Khawaja said.

"This is ridiculous," said Khawaja, noting Muslims have been in Europe for hundreds of years.
