This 12-lecture series, led by Professor Esposito, offers a comprehensive overview of Islam, exploring its beliefs, history, and cultural contributions from the time of Muhammad to the present day. It aims to shed light on common misconceptions and examine Islam’s role as both a religion and a social force, including its interactions with modernization, democracy, and world events. The series also delves into the development of key Islamic institutions and the ongoing debates within the Muslim world about its future direction.
