Zael Kho of Singapore Writes Fantasy Book Titled Sojourn, Published by Holy Fire Publishing

Singapore (PRWEB) May 9, 2008 -- Holy Fire Publishing releases Sojourn (Paperback, US$16.99, ISBN#978-1-60383-042-3). Zael Kho's book, Sojourn, is a result of Kho's exploration of Islam and Christianity in which he reveals some of the stumbling blocks encountered for and against both Islam and Christianity. He himself is a Christian.

According to Kho, the book's Introduction is an allegory of Christ's sacrifice, where the book itself is a story of faith. It deals with the concept of the Mujehid, the Islamic Holy Warrior in general; in particular it deals with an exceptional case of circumstance: the perfect Mujehid who does not fight for the rewards of the Islamic Heaven (the 72 Houri, the flowers, and the watered gardens of Paradise), but instead wars out of his love for righteousness and God.

This exceptional Mujehid, who takes for himself the name of Mujehidin in the plural, because the Arabic nuance uses the plural as a denotation of excellence, is as his name suggests: he is a prince among the Mujehid, observing all moral principles, and loves God with all his heart, soul, mind and strength. The Enemy of men's souls, the Iblis, cannot abide anything so perfect and beloved of God. Jealous, it sets out to sift him in it eternal attempt to discredit God.

The Enemy understands that Mujehidin adheres so fully to the letter of the Law that it is impossible to make him sin by commission. The trap it set for him to snare his soul and corrupt his faith was to make him sin by an act of omission--through indifference failing to protect an Israeli girl from violence by his companions. In this way he sins, and is thereby made aware of his Sin nature, which torments him because he cannot cut it off from himself unlike an eye, arm or leg. He asks God to give him the Sword, if it exists, that is sharper than any two-edged sword--one that would cleave past flesh and bone, and into the Soul--to cut Sin from Man. God, hearing his prayer, sets in motion a strange conjunction of the various planes of time and space to bring such a Sword before him, bringing to him various characters from various times and worlds who trace the passage of Xyfel, who bears this Sword on his person.

However, the use of this sword requires the recognition of Jesus Christ as Savior, Lord, and God, and when Mujehidin discovers this, he is dismayed and left at a crossroads. His final test would be to see, having received it, if he would use the sword on himself.

Zael Kho lives in Singapore. He is in his second year, preparing for his B.A. in English under Goldsmiths College. His first book, Stylus, was also published by Holy Fire Publications.

Holy Fire Publishing (www.christianpublish.com) has published hundreds of Christian books. They help Christian authors reach the world through the printed word.
