Introduction

Islamic History and Culture is one of the most glorious and brilliant chapter of the History of the World. The phenomenal rise of Islam and its decay in the several parts of its vast Empire during certain unfortunate periods of time is an interesting event of world civilization. It is a story of hope and determination, of unflinching faith in Allah Almighty and complete devotion to His Will and submission to the teachings of the Holy Quran and the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h), on the one hand and on the other it is a tale of Khalifahs, Sultans and Emirs who deviated from Islam and Islamic way of life and indulged themselves in debauchery, corruption and lewdness and caused a decay in their kingdoms. The lessons learnt from the Islamic History are thus of great importance, especially for young generation who has to defend their country and culture from its enemies and have to work for its solidarity and progress.
