Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Why and under what circumstances did the religion of Islam emerge in a remote part of Arabia at the beginning of the seventh century? Traditional scholarship maintains that Islam developed in opposition to the idolatrous and polytheistic religion of the Arabs of Mecca and the surrounding regions.

The author is adept at unravelling the complexities of the source material, and students and scholars will find his argument both engaging and persuasive.…
