Over the last 1400 years, from origins in Arabia, a succession of Muslim polities and later empires expanded to control territories and peoples that ultimately stretched from southern France to East Africa and South East Asia. Yet many of the contributions of Muslim thinkers, scientists, and theologians, not to mention rulers, statesmen, and soldiers, have been occluded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.8; color: #111111; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eThis book rescues from oblivion and neglect some of these personalities and institutions while offering the reader a new narrative of this lost Islamic history. The Umayyads, Abbasids, and Ottomans feature in the story, as do Muslim Spain, the savannah kingdoms of West Africa, and the Mughal Empire, along with the later European colonization of Muslim lands and the development of modern nation-states in the Muslim world. Throughout, the impact of Islamic belief on scientific advancement, social structures, and cultural development is given due prominence, and the text is complemented by portraits of key personalities, inventions, and little-known historical nuggets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n    \u003csection style=\"margin-bottom: 35px;\"\u003e\n        \u003ch2 style=\"color: #000000; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px; border-bottom: 1px solid #cccccc; padding-bottom: 5px; font-weight: 700; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h2\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.8; color: #111111; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eFiras Alkhateeb is an esteemed author, researcher, and historian who specializes in Islamic history.
