Islam
Drawn from his masterful presentation of Islam in the bestselling The World's Religions (over 2,000,000 copies sold), Huston Smith offers a highly readable and incisive guide to the heart of a tradition with more than 1 billion adherents worldwide. Dispelling narrow and distorted notions about the nature of Islam, Smith shows the rich history, culture, and values that sustain this vibrant tradition. As Huston points out, Islam itself means primarily 'peace' and its full connotation is 'the peace that comes when one's life is surrendered to God.' Featuring a new introduction for these troubled times, the book covers not only the history and teachings, but also such timely issues as the true meaning of jihad, the role of women in Islamic societies, and the remarkable growth of Islam in America. This book will stand apart as the least expensive, and most concise, timely, and reliable introduction available today.

Within a century after their rise this people became the masters of an empire extending from the shores of the Atlantic Ocean to the confines of China, an empire greater than that of Rome at its zenith. In this period of unprecedented expansion, they assimilated to their creed, speech, and even physical type, more aliens than any stock before or since, not excepting the Hellenic, the Roman, the Anglo-Saxon, or the Russian.

Central in this Arab rise to greatness was their religion, Islam. If we ask how it came into being, the outsider's answer points to socioreligious currents that were playing over ... read full excerpt from Islam ebook
