Description: Symbols of Islam by Mark Chebel Islam Hardcover with dust jacket, 2000 The third and most recent of the monotheistic religions, Islam shares with Judaism and Christianity the glorification of one god, Allah. His messenger, Muhammad received the divine revelation recounted in the Koran and founded the first city-state of the Muslim empire in Medina, where the religion's principal rituals were established.Over thirteen centuries, Islam has become a powerful religion whose symbols, whether linked to its doctrine (prayer, the profession of faith, almsgiving), or its architecture (the Kaaba, the mosque, the mihrab), reveal a wealth of meaning for those wishing to explore their history and cultural significance. This book, the fourth title in the "Symbols of Religions" series, provides a visual synthesis of the Islamic world. Its clear explanatory text and beautiful full-page colour photographs offer a new and fresh approach to the fastest growing religion in the world today.Book has clean unmarked pages, cover and dust jacket. The dust jacket has slight edge rubbing.Shipping cost reflects USPS 2024 price increase
