Thought Paper

When i always hear about "The Age of Ignorance" I've always thought that aside from Allah Subhanahu
Wa taallah, you're idolizing other people like singers and other celebrities, or that some people believe
that New Year is just a celebration every year on the occasion of the end of the calendar year, and that
this is permissible, such as celebrations of weddings, graduations, success, and the arrival of the absent,
Or another Celebration, I'm referring to Eid Almilad, which is a different Eid than Eid'l Fitr and Eid'l Adha.
All of this occurs as a result of Islam's ignorance. I If I'm not mistaken, the Age of Ignorance is Jahiliyah.

Prior to what i read The Age of Ignorance, is a historical period in west-central Arabia that spans the
decades immediately preceding Muhammad's mission and is marked by ignorance of the divine truth.
To the Qur-an original audience, however, it almost definitely referred first and foremost to the moral
condition of those persons and societies who opposed the Prophet's message, and only secondarily, if at
all, to a specific chronological time.

I believe so for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, we have reached a point in the study of
medieval history when it is critical that attention be directed to communities outside of Western Europe,
particularly those that had an impact on the development of the West. This, of course, is not a novel
concept. However, it must contend not only with significant inherent difficulties, but also with the
conservatism of established academic routine. Islam's relations with medieval Christendom have only
recently been studied in depth. True, in one of the most perceptive and innovative works produced by
the new historical movement of his day—I mean his volume on Averroes and Averroism—French scholar
Ernest Renan pointed the way more than a century ago, but his example was not followed. Late-
nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century historians devoted.

Overall, learning more about Islam cane made you view Muslims not as a group of people practicing a
faith utterly different from other religions, but as a group of people who are trying to form their own
understanding of the only one God.
