2025-04-27 11:00 - 2025-06-29 13:00
Why are we here? This course takes a deep dive into that ultimate question through the lens of Muslim history.
Beyond Caliphs and Sultans: Critical Muslim Histories is an engaging, discussion-based course that explores how history shapes Muslim identity, thought, and futures. Designed for learners seeking more than just dates and dynasties, the course encourages critical reflection on the sources, themes, and turning points that continue to influence Muslim communities today.
Over 8 weeks, participants will strengthen their historical thinking skills and explore topics including:
Week 1 – What defines “Islamic history”?
Week 2 – The rise and fall of Caliphates and Sultanates
Week 3 – The spread of Islam beyond Arabia
Week 4 – The role of scholars and spiritual leaders
Week 5 – The Golden Age and its legacies
Week 6 – Colonization, resistance, and decolonization
Week 7 – Internal challenges: division, reform, and secularism
Week 8 – What this all means for Muslim life in America
This is not just a history course—it’s a space for meaningful conversation, reflection, and insight.
