In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful

Islam - Empire Of Faith

Between the fall of Rome and the European voyages of discovery, few events were more significant than the rise of Islam. Within a few centuries, the Islamic empires blossomed, projecting their power from Africa to the east Indies, and from Spain to India.

Inspired by the words of the Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him), and led by caliphs and sultans, this political and religious expansion remains unequaled in speed, geographic size and endurance.

Islam: Empire Of Faith is narrated my Academy Award - winning actor Ben Kingsley. The three-hour program tells the spectacular story of the great sweep of Islamic power and faith during its first 1,000 years - from the birth of the Prophet Muhammed to the peak of the Ottoman Empire under the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent. Historical re-enactments and a remarkable exposition of Islamic art, artifacts and architecture are combined with interviews of scholars from around the world to recount the rise and importance of early Islamic civilization. Increasingly, scholars and historians are recognizing the profound impact that Islamic civilization has had on Western culture and the course of world history.

I found this to be VERY well done.

truthbetold

im still learning about Islam and not yet a Muslim and I rented this a few weeks ago from the local library and all i can say is wow. it was pretty well made in my opinion but in the end i think its the facts and history that speaks for itself...interesting how none of this is ever taught to us growing up in school, atleast in the states anyway. and even now all you ever hear about in the media in regards to Islam in negative, maybe CNN should run this video one night as a special...i think it would be very beneificial to society in general. i highly reccomend it to anyone feeling to lazy to click the link and watch it, its a lot of good info stuffed into about 2.5 hours, and you wont be bored at all.
