Islam has enormous potential as a faith, a system of thought, a group of institutions that are part of history. The extraordinary richness of Islamic culture is such that it can be described as a 'superculture'. Indeed, has it not left its mark permanently on extremely different societies and set its lasting seal on periods of time so long that there, too, an aspect of the 'Islamic miracle' may be discerned? The Islamic miracle is also the fact of having preserved the living message and carried it to the peasants of the Indian sub-continent as well as the bourgeois of Córdoba, of managing to get itself accepted equally by African tribes and Sassanid villages, and of being able to speak of the same principles for fourteen unbroken centuries
