About this Episode

In Part 3 We continue examining the history of Islam from their struggle with the rising power of the Mongols, to their connection with the Ottoman Empire, through the reformation times, and ultimately to 9/11 and modern day.

Our guest James Rayment guides us through how this history leads to the beginning of an internal decline within Islam and addresses the reality of a threat level for the Western world today. We dig into interesting topics in this episode like the language translation of the Quran and how Martin Luther was involved, and the origins of the Crescent Moon symbolism found in Islamic flags and culture today.  Part three concludes with discussing the rise and fall of the caliphate and how this led to ISIS and Al Qaida’s differing goals.
