Islam in Andalus

What took place in the Iberian peninsula during the period between 711 and 1609 is fascinating. It witnessed great illumination and tremendous darkness. It was characterised by immense wisdom and profound ignorance. One of the meanings of ‘Andalus’ in Arabic is ‘to become so smooth and shiny with age that it slips, through your fingers’ – and this is the story of what happened there, not once, but many times.
