Shiekh Abul Hassan Nadwi’s “Islam and the World: The Rise and Decline of the Muslims and its effect on Mankind” is very good for beginners on history, especially from a great scholar
Lost Islamic History by Firas Alkhateeb
Destiny Disrupted by Tamim Ansari
The History of Islam by S.E. AL Djazairi (3 volumes)
Civilisation of Faith by Dr Mustafa as Sibaaie
The preaching of Islam by T W Arnold
Christians and Jews under Islam by Youssef Courbage
I could go on but these seem like good starters. Book by S.E. AL Djazairi are brilliant.
The best for a beginner is "Lost Islamic History" by Firas Al Khatib
Please make a video on books on Biography of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH.
Brilliant :) I like the psychoanalysis angle on Islamic history as it hones in much more on the human element of history!
I just ordered two books:
La psychanalyse a l'epreuve de l'islam
Fethi Benslama
shop.albertine.com/livre/9782080800923-la-psychanalyse-a-l-epreuve-de-l-islam-fethi-benslama/
Le coran au risque de la psychanalyse by Olfa Youssef
shop.albertine.com/livre/9782226173041-le-coran-au-risque-de-la-psychanalyse-youssef-o/
For a beginner/casual reader who wants a short overview of islamic history I would recommend 'lost islamic history:reclaiming muslim civilization from the past'. Berkey's book is dryer than the hijaz
Thank you Bro ❤❤❤❤
Brilliant!.... Enjoyed this. Shukran 👍🏼

Please, make more videos sir. We love it
I have many that are in the works ;)
Thanks a lot sir.
You’re very welcome
"outlines of Islamic culture"by A.M.A Shushtery.
"short history of Saracens" by justice seyyed Amir Ali.
Ones knowledge on Islamic History is not complete without reading "The Muqaddimah", by Ibn Khaldun the 14th century Arab historian and sociologists. Who may have been the inventor of what we now call the social sciences.
Also, "Arab, A 3000 year History of Peoples, Tribes and Empires", by Tim Mackintosh-Smith, is a good read.
good mention
I love your channel brother. Any plan to discuss Ibnu Khaldun “The Muqaddimah”
I find the Muqaddima rather blasé, I would rather talk about Ibn Khaldun's theory of 'Asabiyya - I just pulled out some things out of storage regarding it.
@@HamzaTheHistorian Great, thats will be good also. Theory of cycle is also worth to discuss.
JazakhAllah khair
wa iyyak
Dear Hamza, who in your opinion are the most influential historians on world history ? Historians you would place alongside Marshal Hodgson , philip Hitti and the likes?
Unfortunately, most of the books you've suggested are either unavailable or way too expensive in India.
I would recommend that you try searching for ebooks
Thank you for your recommendations, Hamza)
no problem
Thanks! Hope this helps me in my history major.
It certainly will
Love it! How long have I waited for something like this.
Thanks especially for the links.
Amazing
Very good thank you
Salaam. How much authentic is historian Dr. Ali Muhammad al-Sallabi's books? There are many biographies written by him about the companions of prophet Muhammad (SAW).
I have not taken an academic look at his books, but I will be in the coming months. I am working on a historical book on the lives of the Companions, so I will be looking at his work in the near future.
@@HamzaTheHistorian
Ok. In Sha Allah. You mentioned the biography of Umar (R) written by him and translated by Nasiruddin al khattab. Thats why I asked this Question.
You must read Waell Hallaq, s *restating Orientalism * for his critik of western akademisk studies
I read it when it came out. I've met Wael Hallaq in person :)
Does this guy make the coolest videos or what? haha 😂😆😂
Why thank you, your language videos are pretty awesome too
Hamza The Historian did you just talk to yourself 🤣🤣🤣
@@mouradali8270 Its certainly not outside the realm of possibilities
cody2hamza Mashallah , A lot good videos on your channels . You have a Twitter ?
Thank you so much for the recommendations
Absolutely.
Right on Bro
Thank you so much
Can you recommend any work on the interactions and tensions between the settled people and nomadic people in and around the regions of the Caspian sea, the Dead sea and the Agean sea? (Modern day Syria, Armenia, Turkey and Georgia)
I dont know of any monographs on the subject. Hodgson and Lapidus that I mentioned in the video touch on those subjects. Devin DeWeese would probably be the guy for the Caspian sea, his book "Islamization and Native Religion in the Golden Horde: Baba Tükles and Conversion to Islam in Historical and Epic Tradition"
@@HamzaTheHistorian May Allah bless you and your work, may He reward you with abundant goodness aameen :)
@@zzzi2028 ameen
PLEASE SUGGEST THE BOOKS FOR STUDIES OF OTTOMAN EMPIRE
Jazakallah khair, great video. Have you read s.e. al-djazairi's 3 vol book 'history of islam'? As i know, it's the only comprehensive Islamic history book written by a muslim in english. I'd love it if you’d do a review of that book
It is not the only comprehensive book written by a Muslim in English. I have not read it.
Look up the lectures of Sheikh Yasir Al-Habib if you want an academic take on the Rafidhi school to balance your understanding. Start with How Islam was Hijacked
Salamj alaykum brother, did you recommend to read first the books of the theory and methodologic of history or in the order that you mention ??
Wa Alaykum as-Salam. Yes, In the order that I mentioned. One could start with Berkey's book if Akbar Shah Khan Najeebabadi's History of Islam is too intimidating.
what do you think about John L espositos Oxford history of islam?
What do you think on the works of Franz Rosenthal and Chase Robinson on Historiography? are these good and beneficial, considering the fact that they are jews. (I only learned in the internet that Franz Rosenthal is a jew, though I am not sure with Chase Robinson). Appreciate if you would share your thoughts on this. Thanks shaykh hamza and jazaakallah khayran!
Is there books on Islamic historiography ?
Ibn Khaldun, and Tabari, Ahmad Amin but they are only in Arabic.
Actually parts of Ibn Khaldun and Tabari are translated into English I have found out :)
Are you really sure about Postmodern books like facault?
Yes - I detail this more in my video on Critical Race Theory
@@HamzaTheHistorian will take a look JasakhAllah
Thank you very much, sir
