Islam



Both comprehensive and objective, Islam traces the Muslim religion's history through the fourteen centuries of its existence, commenting on the various political events that stirred its intellectual development and gave rise to its theory, its system of law and administration, its sects, and its traditions. It includes a close look at the life and mission of Muhammad with a careful analysis of the Qur'an, and explains Islam's rapid spread in terms of its power structure rather than its use of the sword. The book ends by examining the results of the interaction between modern Western ideas and the Muslim cultural tradition and confirms the strength of the religion today.
