The book "A Summary of Arab History" includes brief stories from the history of the Arab nation, from the period preceding the Prophet's mission until the beginning of the nineteenth century AD. Its French author was keen to clarify the statement of the Arabs' contribution to human civilization, in contrast to the false and unfair accusations that many Orientalists have been accustomed to, which is to repeating false and unfair accusations against Arabs and Muslims. They often attributed to them qualities that they do not possess, ignoring what Arab scholars and thinkers have contributed to the progress of human civilization. Let us take the Abbasid state as an example. Had it not been for the encouragement of science and translation by its successors, the legacy of ancient Greek civilization, with all its rich intellectual and scientific productions, might have been lost, and Europe would still be living in its dark Middle Ages. The Arabs are also credited with repelling the barbaric Tatar attacks, which at times threatened humanity itself. You will learn all this and many other facts about the history of the ancestors of the Arabs by reading this book.
