Muslim Europe
Tharik Hussain
This 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.
