Excerpt from The Preaching of Islam: A History of the Propagation of the Muslim Faith
An eternal and life-bringing truth, the message of the One God was proclaimed to the people of Arabia in the seventh century, by a prophet under whose banner their scattered tribes became a nation and filled with the pulsations of this new national life, and with a religious fervour and enthusiasm that imparted an almost invincible strength to their armies, they poured forth over three continents to conquer and subdue. Syria, Palestine, Egypt, North Africa and Persia were the first to fall before them, and pressing westward to Spain and eastward beyond the Indus, the followers of the Prophet found themselves, one hundred years after his death, masters of an empire greater than that of Rome at the zenith of its power.
