The History of Islam (From the Pre-Islamic Period to the Abbasid Dynasty)

Rare are those today in the West who have a global vision of the history of Islam. However, when one wants to learn about this subject in French, it is clear that the offer is very insufficient among Muslim publishers. Some are then encouraged to turn to works composed by people who have no connection with this civilization, that is to say written by Westerners who, too often, voluntarily or not, give a biased or erroneous view of events, put forward abusive interpretations, or reveal in their words disrepute or even contempt and arrogance.

They never stop blaming Islam for all the flaws in order to "condition" the minds of Westerners and lead them to think that this religion, which they almost completely ignore, is their enemy. No, Islam is not the enemy of any people, it only comes to open the eyes of men, to awaken their conscience, to illuminate their hearts, to purify their morals, to clean up their practices, to unite them around a saving belief, to correct in them what has been perverted, and to prevent the instigators of evil from raging, in short to oppose the evil action of the devil and thus thwart his evil enterprise which is already at work to the detriment of men.
