Islam is one of the world's great monotheistic religions. Islamic
culture, spanning 1,500 years, has produced some of the finest
achievements of humanity. Yet the religion followed by a fifth of
humankind is too often seen in the West in terms of fundamentalism,
bigotry and violence- a perception that couldn't be more wrong.
Introducing Islam recounts the history of Islam from the birth of
Prophet Muhammad in the 6th century to its status as a global
culture and political force today. Charting the achievements of
Muslim civilisation, it explains the nature and message of the
Qur'an, outlines the basic features of Islamic law, and assesses
the impact of colonialism on Muslim societies. Ziauddin Sardar and
Zafar Abbas Malik show how Muslims everywhere are trying to live
their faith and are shaping new Islamic ideas and ideals for a
globalised world.
