The history of Islam

Studying history is an essential part of gaining the favor of humanity and success in this world and in the hereafter.

For Allah the Exalted says: "Indeed, in their stories (histories) there is a lesson for those of understanding. It was not a fabricated narrative, but a confirmation of what was before it [including the Torah and the Gospel] and a detailed explanation of all things and guidance and mercy for a people who believe." (Surah Yusuf, ayah 111)

Although Islam was already revealed in the time of Adam, the forefather of humanity, it is seen as the religion that our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) brought to humanity. This first part of the three-volume collection therefore begins with the mention of our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Subsequently, useful information is provided about history, its beginning and its benefits, and then something is told about the best possible legal system for humanity, which Islam advocates. Next, the book takes you to the state of affairs in Arabia before Islam and continues with the life of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and the Rightly Guided Caliphs.
