Can history serve as a source of meaning, belonging, and direction for Muslims today?In this timely and accessible work, Dr Yakoob Ahmed presents a compelling case for revivinghistorical consciousness as both an intellectual and spiritual imperative. Drawing from theQur’an, Sīrah, and the Islamic tradition, he explores how history nurtures īmān, informs ethicalknowledge production, and cultivates a living connection to the ummah across time.Engaging themes from theology and civilisation to imagination and storytelling, Why HistoryMatters? addresses the challenges Muslims face in approaching the past, while offering amethodology rooted in tradition and open to academic insight.A vital resource for students, educators, and readers seeking to reconnect the past with the present—and envision a future shaped by principled understanding.
