Islam by Carole Hillenbrand
A New Historical Introduction
An accessible survey of the religion’s origins, core beliefs and practices, and the historical development of its communities from the seventh century to the present. It blends political and social history with discussions of scripture, law, theology, mysticism, art, and regional diversity, showing how belief has been lived and expressed across different cultures. Attentive to encounters with modernity and contemporary debates, it offers a nuanced introduction that challenges stereotypes and presents the breadth of a global civilization.
