This is not a book of history; it does not claim to cover every aspect of Islam religion. It confines itself to the search for the true mission of Islam and how that mission has been hijacked in the struggle of faith and power. This is the story of contest between religion and politics where politics was made a sacrament and religion abused. In describing this aspect, the historical part naturally cannot be ignored. This is not a book of religion either. Since religionand politics overlap each other in this study, theology and jurisprudence have their interplay also. The conflict within Islam for the soul of Islam continues. Will the struggle be resolved in the present and the foreseeable future? Or will it make life more difficult for the faithful? This book attempts to find the answers.
Islam is a religion of the fundamental doctrines and dogmatic (undeniable) faith. Its the main source of principles and rituals is the Holy Quran and Prophet Muhammed’s (sal) traditions (Ahadis). To assimilate the essential requirements of the Islamic faith is on the basis of understanding the terminology and the important events, which create the subjective and objective ways of the religion. The Quran was descended in Arabic, and the Prophet’s mother tongue was also Arabi, so almost the Islamic terminology is in Arabic. Therefore, it is necessary to understand some important Arabic terms and their effective denotation to rightly fulfil the religious rituals and practices. This book also contains the work of the religious noblemen and the political personalities who have worked to spread Islamic faith, and there has been given the introductory knowledge of the important wars, which were fought under the Islamic flag against the enemies of the nascent faith
