The Islamic Timeline

  بسم الله والحمد لله والصلاة والسلام على رسل الله  

The following timeline was migrated from The Human Timeline post. This timeline focuses solely on Islamic history. As of now, the dates are approximated based on what is available to me. I will be making the efforts to place the dates as precisely as possible and try to maintain the timeline in order إن شاء الله 

The links redirect to DarPDFs (in English) and Wikipedia. I will try to link each person and event to their original source as possible (which may mean that the links might redirect to books or articles in Arabic).

قبل الهجرة (translit. qablal Hijra) = Before Hijra (BH)

بعد الهجرة (translit. ba’dal Hijra) = After Hijra (AH).

c. = circa (approximately)

This timeline begins with the birth of the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and work it’s way down to the present.

And, as I mentioned in my previous post, if you have any suggestions or corrections, you can contact me through the form on the right hand panel.

The Human Timeline

 بسم الله والحمد لله والصلاة والسلام على رسل الله

The purpose of this brief timeline started with trying to contextualize atheist beliefs and it quickly became a way to contextualize known and speculated human history starting from the present (with my own brief existence) working my way back to 0 CE and then into BCE. This is going to be an evolving timeline focused now on Islamic and art history with insights from my readings and studies on various subjects, إن شاء الله 

I am aware that this needs to be edited for readability. At the moment, I am only collecting and amending this timeline with relevant info and using color codes to connect ideas. I am still working out the format, so bear with me.

If you read this, and you want to be included in this timeline, or have important dates that I should include, feel free to use the contact form on the right hand side. Keep the text simple (ex. Year – Event) and include a source.

Also, if any of the information is incorrect, and you want to suggest a correction, again,  feel free to contact me through the form on the right-hand side of this post.

I am fully aware that I’m using Wikipedia, which is not an ideal source for information (especially concerning Islam and its history). I’m using it merely for surface-level reference due to the fact that I do not have direct access to legitimate historical documents.

Keep in mind, and I cannot emphasize this enough: the research I am conducting for this timeline is admittedly surface-level and amateurish. I am not really digging too deep into the histories and personalities I am collecting here (not yet anyways). This timeline if for placing history into context. If I come across a reliable and solid source, I will note it in the timeline, إن شاء الله
