27 Chapter Of The Holy Quran

Description

<p class=”MsoNormal”>The Legacy of Islam is a companion volume to The Legacy of Greece, The Legacy of Rome, The Legacy of the Middle Ages, and The Legacy of Israel. It seeks to give an account of those elements in the culture of Europe which are derived from the Islamic world. Legacy of Islam is to be understood in a different sense from any of these. It is a provocative title, the meaning of which is only fully explained by the book itself. The nearest parallel is the Legacy of Israel. But whereas it is from the religion of the Jews that the complexion of the Legacy of Israel is derived, in the Legacy of Islam we do not treat of the Legacy of the religion of Mohammad qua religion: the reader will learn from this book that there is little that is peculiarly Islamic in the contributions which Occidental and Oriental Muslims Law. But Islam is the fundamental fact which made the Legacy possible. It was under the protection and patronage of the Islam Empire that the arts and sciences which this book describes flourished. <span style=”mso-spacerun: yes;”>
