This book serves as a cyclopedia of the doctrines, rites, ceremonies, and customs of the Muhammadan religion, aimed at providing a systematic exposition to the English-speaking audience. As a dictionary, it encapsulates various technical and theological terms associated with Islam, reflecting the growing interest in comparative religion during that time. The content of this dictionary methodically outlines the key principles of Islam, focusing primarily on the Sunni sect while also noting significant distinctions from Shiah and Wahhabi perspectives. It encompasses explanations of important doctrines and practices, alongside brief biographical entries for key figures in early Islamic history, such as Muhammad and other prominent personalities. Hughes meticulously integrates insights from his extensive missionary experience and scholarly research, including contributions from native scholars. The work not only serves scholars and missionaries but is also aimed at anyone wishing to understand the core teachings and cultural elements that influence the lives of millions of Muslims around the world.
