Title: Lessons In Islamic History
Author: Shaykh Muhammad Al-Khudari Bak Al-Bajuri / Translated by Mariam Madge Conlan
ISBN: 9781906949099
Publisher: Turath Publishing (UK)

Lessons in Islamic History is an essential summary of Shaykh Muhammad Khudari Bak's series of groundbreaking works on Islamic history, in which this pioneering Egyptian historian and scholar of Shari'ah and Arabic literature distils the essence of his three outstanding works on the Prophetic Biography, the Rightly-Guided Caliphs and the Umayyad and 'Abbasid Dynasties.
In his distinctively eloquent yet uncomplicated style, he traces the changing political and social circumstances of the Islamic peoples from their origins in the pre-Islamic Arabic Peninsula until his own time in the Ottoman caliphate of Egypt.
An instinctive educator who explained that he wrote not merely to record history, but so that history might benefit, the author outlines the vicissitudes of Islamic history with refreshing objectivity and restraint, highlighting the lessons to be learnt from past events.
In an era when competing historical narratives vie for supremacy, this text provides a clear and concise account of Muslim leadership throughout history and its consequences for the Ummah. As such, it is an indispensable read for young and old alike.

The Book includes:
Arabs Before the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
The Seerah of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
The Four Khalifs
The Umayyad Dynasty (Including Andalus)
The Abbasid Dynasty
Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Many Others up to the Ottomans in 1220AD (1805 AC)
