| ISLAM: EMPIRE OF FAITH, a three-part series, re-creates the spectacular sweep of Islamic power and faith during its first 1,000 years, from Muhammad's birth to the Ottoman Empire under Suleyman the Magnificent. Evocative re-enactments and art, artifacts, and architecture combine with scholarly interviews to recount the rise and glory of Islamic civilization. ISLAM: EMPIRE OF FAITH does an excellent job of depicting the rise, spread, and maturation of Muslim nationhood and culture. Wonderfully documented and lavishly illustrated, it gives the perception of "being there," engendering a true appreciation for the society that Allah's Prophet engendered and its historical development. Viewing the many pieces of historic art and architecture and encountering with the profound spiritual and intellectual achievements of Muslim culture make this series well worth the price. |
