DECISIVE MOMENTS IN THE HISTORY OF ISLAM (Hard Cover)

The original idea of this book is fully represented by its title. It deals with the decisive encounters between East & West and Christendom. This is one of the most important subjects of Islamic history, perhaps the most important of all. The encounter of Islam and Christendom in the fields of war or peace, was always decisive and had the most far-reaching effects on their destinies. The author chose the decisive moments of those encounters. Which are given to the reader in this book. All the decisive moments of those encounters are united with the common bond and all are representative of the same idea. The book is not therefore, as it may seem at the first glance, a collection of miscellaneous studies but, with the exception of a few chapters, is a harmonious unity dealing with one and the same subj ect. Islam is commencing today a new phase of revival, both political and moral. The strengthening of intellectual and cultural bonds between Muslim nations, the review of the glories of the past and cooperation in throwing light on the common legacy, are valuable elements in this revival. momm
