Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - On the eighth day of the pilgrimage in January 930, the gates of Mecca stood open and the city was full of the faithful. By nightfall, the sanctuary had become a battlefield.An army from the deserts of eastern Arabia rode in, killed pilgrims at the very door of the Kaaba, filled the well of Zamzam with the dead, and tore the Black Stone from its corner. Then it carried the holiest object in Islam away across the sand.Their leader, Abu Tahir, was twenty-three years old. He believed that whoever held the Stone would hold the pilgrimage, and that the faithful would follow it into the desert. Nobody came.For twenty-two years the Stone lay in the treasury of one of the strangest states the medieval world ever produced: a state that had abolished prayer, ruled by six men from a single throne, where no one paid taxes and thousands of slaves worked the palm groves. A fortune in gold was offered for its return. It was refused. In Mecca, pilgrims reached into an empty socket in the wall and touched nothing.Then, as suddenly as it had vanished, the Stone came back, with a single sentence that explained nothing: We took it by a command, and by a command we return it.Whose command And why then Drawn from the original Arabic and Persian sources, many never translated into English, The Stolen House of God follows the whole affair from the raid to the return: the secret movement that planned it, the desert state it built, the toll it later charged the very pilgrims it had robbed, and a silence that has lasted a thousand years.A true story set in places we still know by name, whose mark is still on the Stone that millions touch every year.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Arab pilots crossed the Indian Ocean with a science of their own. They measured the height of the Pole Star in fingers, named the points of the horizon after the stars that rose and set there, and timed their voyages to the day by the two great winds of that sea. In 1498 Vasco da Gama crossed from Africa to India in twenty-three days, guided by a man who knew the season. He sailed home out of season, and the same crossing took three months less three days.By Star and Monsoon tells the story of that science through the books of its masters, Ahmad ibn Majid, associated with Julfar, and Sulayman al-Mahri of al-Shihr, who wrote down what generations of seamen had carried in memory. It shows how a pilot found his position, kept his course and read a coast, why he set his knowledge in verse, and what became of it all when the guns arrived. Maps and figures, many redrawn from the pilots' own texts, guide the reader through their methods.Drawn from the Arabic sources themselves, and written for general readers as well as for students of maritime history, this is the story of an ocean that was known, measured and named long before Europe came to discover it.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The city had been holy for more than a thousand years. Babylon had burned it, Rome had razed it, and the Persians had sacked it only twenty-three years before. In 637, after months of siege, it was about to change hands once more.Then the patriarch of Jerusalem stood on the walls and made a demand no one expected. He would open the gates. But he would hand the keys to no general. Only to the caliph himself.And the caliph came.Umar ibn al-Khattab, master of a state that now reached from Arabia to Iraq and Syria, set out from Medina with a single servant and a single camel, the two of them taking turns in the saddle. When they reached Jerusalem it was the servant's turn to ride. The ruler of the new power walked to the gates on foot, in a patched robe, leading the camel by its rope.What followed has few parallels in the history of conquered cities. Umar's covenant guaranteed the people of Jerusalem their lives, their property, their churches and their crosses. Invited to pray inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, he refused, and prayed outside, so that no one could ever claim the church in his name. Then he walked to the site of the ancient Temple, buried under centuries of rubble, and began to clear it with his own hands.But the story did not begin at the gates. Years earlier, in a leather tent at Tabuk, the Prophet had counted six signs that would come before the end of time, and the opening of Jerusalem was one of them. The city had been foretold.The City Foretold follows that promise from the night journey that bound Jerusalem to Mecca, through the long siege and the meeting at the gate, to a covenant whose memory has outlived empires, down to the keys of the great church, kept to this day by Muslim families.Built on the earliest Arabic chronicles, read in the original and set beside the Christian testimonies of the seventh century, this is the story of a city opened not by the sword, but by a promise kept.…
