Pan-Islam

"Pan-Islam" by G. Wyman Bury is an examination of the pan-Islamic movement, viewing it as a reaction against external exploitation experienced by Muslims. Written in the early 20th century, the book aims to clarify the complexities of Islam for a wide viewership, explaining that pan-Islam is more than just a religious phenomenon; it is a call for solidarity among Muslims aimed at resisting threats posed by non-Muslim nations. Using Bury's knowledge acquired through his time in the Muslim world, the book explores the movement's historical background, global relevance, and potential impacts on political dynamics and international relations, specifically during times marked by conflict and colonial ambition.
