Description
Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Large demy 8vo. (22 x 17 cm). In English. 127 p., color ills. Symbols of Islam. Photographs by Laziz Harmani. Over 13 centuries, Islam has become a powerful religion whose symbols, whether linked to its doctrine (prayer, the profession of faith, alms giving), 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 provides a visual synthesis of the Islamic world. Its clear text and beautiful full-page color photographs offer a new and fresh approach to the fastest growing religion in the world.
