Understanding Islam A brief history of the Arabs

Where are we?

The Early History  Government was weak or non-existent  The Byzantines and Persians fought for the land.  The religion was mixed between various polytheistic beliefs Zoroastrian and Nestorian Christianity.  Women had no status, prostitution and polygamy was rampant.

Nestorian Christianity  Separates moments when Jesus was God and when Jesus was fully man.  This church moved to China, Persia, India.  St Thomas is the patriarch

Mohammed comes.  Believed to be a prophet. Like Moses, like Jesus.  Visited by the angel Gabriel. (same angel that visited Mary)  Visited during Ramadan

Mohammed  He was a rich merchant.  Called to proclaim the one true God.  Gained only 40 followers, mostly friends and family.  Was persecuted severely sacrificed quite a lot. (not in this for wealth)  Took over Mecca with military force. 630

Region taken by force  Was not miraculous.  There was no government law or organization in immediate region. Why would God need another prophet? Why a special message when a church is in the area? Why would Christianity spread through peace but Islam spread through warfare?

What is the essence of Islam The 5 pillars of Islam: 1. A dedication to monotheism 2. Prayer 3. Charity 4. Fasting 5. Pilgrimage 6. Holy War? Find out more: What is Islam

The End of Mohammed’s Life  Was one of bloody conquest. 8 battles, 8 raids and gave orders for 38 military operations.  Within 10 years after his death his force rivaled the Byzantines and Persians.  His personal example is not one we would want to follow. It was cunning and brutal.  Elevated dying for one’s faith in the defense of Islam as the utmost glory.

The beginning of the next Caliphate  People want to abandon being Muslim  They are all put to the sword until they resubmit to Muhammad.  Islam spreads in this fashion without resistance until 730.

The battle of Tours 730  Franks are the strongest empire in all of Europe (besides the Byzantines)

Islam has something to offer.
