Pan Islam (1919)

Pan Islam is a book written by G. Wyman Bury and published in 1919. The book provides a detailed analysis of the history, ideology, and political implications of Pan-Islamism, a movement that emerged in the late 19th century and aimed to unite all Muslims under a single political and religious authority. The book begins with an overview of the origins of Pan-Islamism and its early proponents, such as Jamal al-Din al-Afghani and Muhammad Abduh. Bury then explores the various manifestations of the movement in different regions, including the Ottoman Empire, Egypt, India, and Southeast Asia. Throughout the book, Bury examines the political and religious motivations behind Pan-Islamism, as well as its potential implications for the international order. He also discusses the role of European colonialism in shaping the movement and the ways in which Pan-Islamism intersected with other political and social movements of the time. Overall, Pan Islam provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of an important historical movement that continues to have relevance in the contemporary world. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Islamic studies, Middle Eastern history, and international relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
