Islamic Thought and its Place in History
|
|
By: De Lacy O' Leary
paperback 327 pages
An effort has been made in this book to trace the history of medieval Muslim thought as to show the elements which it had in common with Christian
teaching, and to account for the points of divergence. Influenced initially by Hellenistic thought, Islamic thought brought about enormous influence on the culture of medieval Latin Christendom, directly leading to the Renascence and the death of medieval culture. Our Price: $8.99

Muhammad: His life based on earliest sources
|
|
By: Martin Lings (Abubakr Siraj ad Din)
paperback India print
Based on Arabic sources of the eighth and ninth centuries, Lings' Muhammad owes the freshness and directness of its approach to the words of the men and women who heard Muhammad speak and witnessed the events of his life. Martin Lings has an unusual gift for narrative; here he has adopted a style which is at once extremely readable and reflects both the simplicity and grandeur of the story. The result is a book which will be read with equal enjoyment by those already familiar with Muhammads' life and those coming to it for the first time. This work has been translated into many languages and won many prizes and awards..
