Its a Fair View,
By
This review is from: Islam and Politics (Contemporary Issues in the Middle East) (Paperback)
The book provides historical background as well as the context to understand Islamic Politics. It begins with how the early Muslims use their faith to shape Islamic Ideology for both state and society. The book also discusses the rise of Islam, the many empires that flourished and as well as declined. Lastly, The book nicely make its way out by talking about the modern fundamentalism. This book doesnt really convince one to take sides or anything like that. It just sheds a perspective on the basic timeline of Islamic Politics. One could grasp a scope on how much the Muslims deviates in modern times against the original Islamic societal principles and why so this happened.
