History of Islam / by O'Connor, Frances.(CARDINAL)484066;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 60-61) and index.Introduction -- The origins of Islam : Muhammad and his followers -- Sunnis and Shi'ites : a cultural history of the divide -- The history of the Quran -- The spread of Islam : geography and culture -- Islam today -- Glossary.The story of Islam begins with a humble man who was devoted to practicing kindness towards others, and it continues with millions of followers in many countries. Most Muslims are peaceful people who practice a religion that calls for personal responsibility and a commitment to being a good and kind person in the world. It is responsible for uniting individuals and families in the pursuit of the values of kindness, compassion, and responsibility to others that Muhammad exemplified over 1,300 years ago. Its vivid history is not forgotten as it grows into other areas of the world, and its story continues today even when new cultural contexts result in Islam's ongoing evolution and adaptation to local circumstances.
