From its roots in the Arabian Peninsula, the Islamic religion has spread around the world, transforming human civilization, inspiring art, intellect, and invention. 00:00:10
Through its unique blend of social, spiritual, and intellectual guidance, Islam is today one of the great cultural forces on earth. 00:00:45
The rapid spread of Islam is one of the most extraordinary events in human history. 00:00:55
In just 100 years, the new religion was carried from the Arabian Peninsula to Central Asia in the east 00:01:11
and to the Atlantic coast of Africa and Spain in the west. 00:01:17
Throughout its history, Islam has reached across cultural, political and geographic boundaries 00:01:40
to create a coherent artistic heritage. 00:01:46
The heartland of the Islamic world have been pivots of transcontinental trade and cultural exchange. 00:01:49
Islamic artists and scholars have found themselves truly at the center of the world. 00:02:06
Today, the truth and power of Islam reaches into the souls of more than a billion believers around the world. 00:02:16
The written word is at the very heart of Islam. 00:02:43
The Quran has inspired works of astonishing beauty. 00:02:46
and the skill of the calligrapher has become one of the highest and most refined of art forms. 00:02:51
As Islam spread around the world, Arabic replaced ancient Greek and Latin 00:03:02
to become the language of religion, government, commerce, science and literature. 00:03:07
Calligraphers, poets and painters all enjoyed special status alongside scientists and scholars. 00:03:18
Over the centuries, they all worked together to create a range of exquisite books and manuscripts 00:03:30
which reflects the status of scholarship and the written word in Islam. 00:03:36
Throughout Islamic art, the use of color, decoration, pattern, and design is highly distinct. 00:04:04
Complex geometric or arabesque patterns create the impression of unending repetition, 00:04:18
summoning a sense of the infinite. 00:04:25
Similar styles, range across the centuries, 00:04:41
used to decorate everything from the largest monumental building 00:04:45
to the smallest of everyday objects. 00:04:49
Islamic rulers lived in great luxury, 00:05:04
commissioning superbly crafted goods to show their status and power. 00:05:06
Sumptuous textiles created an earthly paradise in their homes. 00:05:14
From the finest gauzes to the thickest knotted carpets 00:05:19
with rich colors, complex patterns, and precious metal threads. 00:05:25
Glass and ceramics have also developed instantly recognizable Islamic styles, 00:05:50
reflecting the delicate skills of craftsmen. 00:05:56
Islamic artisans led technological and artistic advances 00:06:03
in glassmaking and ceramic techniques. 00:06:06
The copper souk, which is still a fixture of the Islamic bazaar, 00:06:23
is a testament to the durability and adaptability of metalwares. 00:06:27
A fondness for elaborate decoration remains a dominant characteristic. 00:06:40
Recurring motifs can be found decorating everything 00:06:46
from the smallest coins to the most complex ceramic tilework. 00:06:49
The distinctive skyline of an Islamic city, 00:07:26
punctuated by domes and minarets, 00:07:30
instantly identifies the presence of Islam 00:07:32
to all who see it perhaps the greatest of all Islamic arts is architecture the 00:07:35
mosque above all buildings is the center of all Islamic communities regional 00:07:54
styles and variations abound but the central principles are the same from the 00:08:00
Umayyad mosque in Damascus to the Jama'a Masjid in Delhi mosques all over the 00:08:05
world share a similar simple design of a central courtyard surrounded by columned porches. 00:08:18
Within the United Arab Emirates, examples range from Sharjah's al-Qasaba and al-Makfara 00:08:28
mosques to the tiny mosque at Badia, which is the oldest in the country. The rulers of 00:08:34
Islam's huge empires accumulated vast wealth and commissioned great palaces to demonstrate 00:08:48
their power and authority. Palaces such as Alhambra in Granada and the Topkapi in Istanbul 00:08:55
were built to house tens of thousands of soldiers, servants, eunuchs and officials. 00:09:09
Great empires also fostered trade and the development of the bazaar, which remain at 00:09:20
the very heart of the Islamic city. An extensive network of spectacular caravanserai, roads 00:09:25
and bridges were constructed to ease the flow of people and goods. 00:09:35
Commemorative buildings were also important, such as the great Taj Mahal in Agra, created 00:09:47
by the Mughal emperors who were an Islamic superpower and eloquently demonstrated this 00:09:53
through their incredible architecture. 00:09:58
The beauty of Islamic art and architecture transcends time and space. 00:10:31
It reaches across the boundaries of language and culture. 00:10:39
At its very heart are a set of common beliefs, ideas and aesthetics which give it a remarkable 00:10:45
coherence. 00:10:52
The collection in this museum demonstrates the breadth and depth of this tradition, from 00:11:07
the harsh beauty of the art of warfare to the delicate intricacy of textiles, ceramics 00:11:15
and glass. 00:11:24
Through all these objects, the unique qualities of Islam find a powerful expression. 00:11:27
