| Abstract
|
:
|
During the first three centuries of Islamic rule, Muslims first articulated what it meant to become Muslim. In early Islamic sources, references to conversion describe an act of religious, political, and social transition. Conversion stories were an important way for historians to emphasize Allah at work in the Muslim community and to convey the unique qualities of Muhammad and the Qu'ran. In these texts, historians not only revealed the diverse nature of conversion and perceptions of it, but also illuminated their own religious debates, social concerns, political orientations, and ideological.
