Islam in Andalus By Ahmad Thomson

ISBN: 9781897940525

This book is the natural follow-on to For Christ’s Sake. It explores the history of that extraordinary period during which the Muslims first flourished and then perished in the Iberian Peninsula - now Spain and Portugal. It was largely due to the Muslim presence and illumination there that the Dark Ages in Europe came to an end, and the Muslim influence remains with us today in a thousand ways.

Ahmad Thomson was educated both in Zimbabwe and England, and having traveled widely, he was fortunate enough to escape having too rigid a cultural moulding or social conditioning.
although brought up as a Christian, recognised and embraced Islam for what it was. He is currently practicing as a barrister and is deputy chairman of the Association of Muslim Lawyers (AML). He has
written widely on a number of Islamic issues, particularly the history of Muslim Spain.  "Islam in Andalus", "For Christ's Sake", "Dajjal the Antichrist", "Blood on the Cross", and many more
