What Does History Tell Us from the Classical Period of Islam? Some Illustrative Social and Moral Examples

Abstract

History, which is subsumed under Social and Humanity Sciences, is a field that closely concerns all branches of sciences. History is a verified set of facts. In the past sense, it is a continuous dimension of human consciousness, the institutions and values of the society and the absolute component of the patterns outside these. In other words, it is the narration, investigation and evaluation of all events in all aspects that took place in the past up to the present time. Also, history is the branch of science that records the adventure of humanity and the universe since creation. It is a bridge transferring the past to the present between the past and the future. It is the memory of nations and the report card showing their success and failure. It is a branch of science that offers exemplary scenes to be taught and a series of events that would not recur if the lesson had been learned. It is a branch of science that reveals the phases of Sunnatullah, the existence and extinction of the state, nations and civilizations. This article aims to reveal what history tells us with some examples from the Classical Period of Islam. For, history offers the necessary material to the understanding of humanity as a field and science branch that brings the past and the present together and sheds light on the future. Probably what needs to be done is to benefit properly from the environment prepared and presented by history. For, it is only the actors that change, in fact the historical rules do not change.
