Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique perspective on Islam by reproducing two letters exchanged between the Alaouite Sultan Moulay Ismail and the exiled King James II of England. Written in 1698, these letters provide a fascinating glimpse into the religious and political climate of the time. The author presents Moulay Ismail as a devout Muslim and a skilled theologian, as well as a ruthless and ambitious ruler. James II, on the other hand, emerges as a pious and somewhat naive figure, seeking guidance from the Moroccan sultan on religious matters. Their correspondence reflects the complex relationship between Islam and Christianity during this period, and sheds light on the geopolitical dynamics of the late 17th century. This book will appeal to readers interested in the history of Islam, the reign of Moulay Ismail, and the life of James II.
