À propos de cet audio
Islam has been one of the most powerful religious, social, and political forces in history. Over the last 1,400 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. This book rescues from oblivion and neglect some of these personalities and institutions while offering the listener 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 narrative is complemented by portraits of key personalities, inventions, and little known historical nuggets. The history of Islam and of the world's Muslims brings together diverse peoples, geographies, and states, all interwoven into one narrative that begins with Muhammad and continues to this day.

Best Summary of Islamic History
Best summary of Islamic history in the English language that I’ve come across (I’m a Muslim with a passion for history.) Highly recommend.

Poor narration
A very informative and useful account!
However, the choice of the narrator couldn’t have been poorer. He struggled with names like Mohammed, Ibrahim and Ismail.
A basic understanding of Arabic or the ability to learn to pronounce ‘Islamic’ terms or Muslim names properly should be a minimum for someone narrating the ‘Islamic’ history.
Choosing someone to narrate the colonial American or British history who lacks the ability to pronounce English or American names or geographical names correctly would be nothing short of disastrous.
Sadly, this sums up the narrator’s contribution to an otherwise well-written text.
