Tackling big topics with a light touch, it has introduced weekly audiences of over 2 million to subjects ranging from Romulus and Remus to the Renaissance.</p><p>This special themed collection provides a focussed, wide-ranging introduction to 25 of the ideas and events that shaped the Islamic world, highlighting the numerous connections between Islamdom and the West throughout history. We learn the origins of Sharia law, and how prophets became important to Islam, Judaism and Christianity alike; discover how the Translation Movement introduced the Arabic world to Greek philosophy, medicine, engineering and maths; and find out how settlers and invaders from both East and West transformed and refashioned the civilisations they touched, from the Arab Conquest, Muslim Spain and the Volga Vikings to the Third Crusade and the Siege of Vienna.</p><p>Here, too, are key scholars and writers, among them al-Kindi, the first significant thinker to reconcile philosophy and Islam; Averroes, who worked to integrate Islamic theology with the rationality of Aristotle; Maimonides, a titan of Jewish intellectual history who was much influenced by the Islamic world; and Rumi, the Persian poet and Sufi mystic whose work transcends borders of time, faith, language and geography.</p><p>Hosted by Melvyn Bragg with a panel of experts including Mona Siddiqui, Jim Al-Khalili, Tariq Ali and Amira Bennison, these enlightening, accessible discussions will illuminate, inspire and surprise.</p><p><em>Production credits</em><br />Presented by Melvyn Bragg<br />Produced by Thomas Morris, Simon Tillotson, Victoria Brignell</p><p>First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on the following dates:</p><p><em><strong>Part I: Religion</strong></em><br /><em>Islamic Law and its Origins</em> 5 May 2011<br /><em>Sunni and Shia Islam</em> 25 June 2009<br /><em>Prophecy</em> 13 June 2013</p><p><em><strong>Part II: History of Ideas</strong></em><br /><em>Maths in the Early Islamic World</em> 16 February 2017<br /><em>The Translation Movement</em> 2 October 2008<br /><em>Al-Kindi</em> 28 June 2012<br /><em>al-Biruni</em> 10 June 2010<br /><em>Avicenna</em> 8 November 2007<br /><em>Al-Ghazali</em> 19 March 2015<br /><em>Averroes</em> 5 October 2006<br /><em>Maimonides</em> 17 February 2011<br /><em>Ibn Khaldun</em> 4 February 2010</p><p><em><strong>Part III: Literature</strong></em><br /><em>Antarah ibn Shaddad</em> 28 February 2019<br /><em>Rumis Poetry</em> 11 February 2016</p><p><em><strong>Part IV: Empire</strong></em><br /><em>The Sassanid Empire</em> 13 December 2007<br /><em>The Arab Conquests</em> 26 June 2008<br /><em>Muslim Spain</em> 21 November 2002<br /><em>The Battle of Tours</em> 16 January 2014<br /><em>The Volga Vikings</em> 11 November 2010<br /><em>The Almoravid Empire</em> 3 May 2018<br /><em>Third Crusade</em> 29 November 2001<br /><em>The Siege of Vienna</em> 14 May 2009</p><p><em><strong>Part V: Rulers</strong></em><br /><em>The Abbasid Caliphs</em> 2 February 2006<br /><em>The Mamluks</em> 26 September 2013<br /><em>The Safavid Dynasty</em> 12 January 2012</p><p> 2023 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
