Summary

Miriam Meier: The greatest cultures of the world Islam

Islam develops in the VII. century in the semi-nomadic polytheistic society of the Arabian Peninsula, where there were already cities with a merchant elite. Caravans from Mecca and Jathrib (Medina) traded with Syria and Palestine, which were then within the Christian Byzantine Empire. To the northeast is the Zoroastrian Persian Empire, to the south is Nestorian Yemen, and to the west, on the other side of the Red Sea, is Monophysite Ethiopia. Well-organized Jewish communities lived in Medina and some other Arab cities.

Islam, like Judaism and Christianity, cultivates strict monotheism. Islam was created by perfecting the previous Abrahamic religions. As the peoples and their consciousness developed, so did the regulations. Muslims are considered not only the followers of Muhammad, but also people who accepted Abraham (Ibrahim a.s.), Moses (Musaa a.s.), Jesus (Isaa a.s.) as God's messengers and God's slaves, etc.

Islamic art and architecture includes the art and architecture of the Middle East, North Africa, North India and Spain, which fell under Muslim rule at the very beginning of the VII century. The two dominant features of Islamic art and architecture, the importance of calligraphic ornamentation and the shape of the mosque, were originally associated with Islamic belief and developed in the early days of the religion.

The sequence of development in Islamic art - from the 7th to the 18th century - can be divided into three periods. The period of formation of Islamic art roughly coexisted with the rules of the first leaders of Islam, the Umayyad Caliphs (661-750), who spread Islam from Damascus in Syria to Spain. The middle period covers the time of the Abbasid caliphs (750-1258), who ruled Islam from Baghdad in Iraq, until the time of the Mongol conquests. This caliphate, known for its advancement in the fields of learning and culture, was the most picturesque in the history of Islam. It was during this period that he strengthened the influence of forms from Iranian art. The period from the Mongol conquests to the 18th century could, due to appropriateness, be called the late period of Islamic art.
