{"product_id":"9780241742822","title":"Muslim Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis revelatory history explores the ancient roots of Muslim Europe, tracing their journey through the Mediterranean. Our odyssey begins in the little-known Sufi lodges in Cyprus, where Muslims arrived in 647AD. From there, we travel through the continent - visiting places such as Sicily, Malta, Portugal and Spain - encountering red-haired European Sultans and Arabic-speaking Christian Kings. We meet forgotten Muslim pioneers, such as Abbas Ibn Firnas who gave us flight and Ibn Sina who gave us modern medicine. We see the Islam-inspired mudejar art of fourteenth-century Christians in Spain, and how such cross fertilisation birthed Europe's 'Renaissance'. We discover the long-forgotten tombs of European Muslims who knew the Prophet Muhammad, and the author - award-winning writer Tharik Hussain - becomes the first Muslim in over 900 years to pray inside the remains of a nameless Sicilian Mosque.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viking","offers":[{"title":"Tharik \/ Hussain","offer_id":56439847190901,"sku":"9780241742822","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9780241742822.jpg?v=1764942211","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9780241742822","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
