The History of Islam (3 Vol. Set)

This book presents the true Islamic events and their actual causes before the English readers because the other books in the English language found on Islamic history have been written by such authors and compilers who did no justice in presenting the true picture of the Islamic Era but their prejudice prevented them from doing so.

In the first volume, starting with the introduction of the history as a subject, the country, people, and conditions of Arabia prior to the advent of Islam were discussed, and an account of the life of Prophet Muhammad was presented including the hardships and opposition he faced while propagating the message of Islam, and the details of migration and the period after it until his death. After that, the description of the Rightly Guided Caliphate was also discussed in its full perspective.

In this second volume, starting with the Caliphate of Banu Umayyah, the martyrdom of Imam Husain (R), and the Caliphate of the Abbasids, all areas have been covered as far as the expansion of Islam.

This third volume begins with the description of the conditions of Spain before and after the rule of Muslims and the role played by Umayyad, Abbasid, Almoravid, and Almohad Caliphs there, and their encounters with the Christian Armies. Then some mention of the conquest of Morocco and North Africa has been given along with the details of Idrisia and Aghlab’s rule there. After that detailed accounts of Ganghisid Mongols, Turks, and Tartar Mongols have been produced. After that Islamic history of Persia is described by giving the accounts of the Saffariah, Samanid, Delmid, Gharnavid, Seljuk, Ghourid, and Muluk Dynasties with the periods of Khwarizm Shah, Atabeks and Sistan Kings rule there.
