Join Justin Marozzi, award-winning historian, travel writer, and Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, who has lived and worked extensively across the Muslim world, to talk about “Islamic Empires: Fifteen Cities that Define a Civilization”.

In this acclaimed work, he traces the rise and flourishing of Islamic civilisation through the stories of its great cities, from Mecca to Baghdad, Cordoba to Istanbul, bringing to life the cultural, political, and spiritual forces that shaped a millennium of history.

At the panel, he will share these insights in an engaging journey through the empires that defined the Islamic world.

Hosted by: Mustafa Omar, Co-founder of Islamic Travels.
