This Volume covers history from late antiquity to the fall of the Umayyad dynasty.

The history of any given people is not only a record of its past but also a mirror of its present and a window to its future. Every society must learn from its past and work out a plan for its future. Muslim history, in many ways, is like any other, with its own fair share of villains and champions, its moments of grandeur and tranquility and its moments of failure and disappointments. But in one way it is special to itself for it is the history of the continual opportunities, offered to every man, woman and child, of realizing themselves and becoming closer to their Creator. This book offers a unique perspective on Islamic History using authentic sources of documentation; A History of Muslim Civilization will prove to be a great textbook in Islamic history.

This is a textbook with Colour Images, Chapter review and Lesson Review Questions suitable for the Classroom as well as general Read.
