The current rhetoric surrounding the War on Terror is that a resurgence of Islam and the Caliphate marks a return to the 7th century society. This argument has emanated from the West, especially britain and America. This documentary looks at the civilisation that was established in Spain under Muslim rule and how this society, inspired by Islam, was far advanced from any European society, that was going through the 'Dark Ages'. It also establishes a fact that is rarely acredited to Muslim history, that the basis of intellectual and cultural revival in Europe known as the Renaissance came about only because of the intellectual advancement of Muslim Spain and its willingness to share knowledge and wisdom with wider Europe.
