السلطان محمد الفاتح وعوامل النهوض في عصره-ابن كثير

Muhammad al-Fatih

In this book, the author discusses Sultan Muḥammad al-Fātiḥ, the conqueror of Constantinople and vanquisher of the Byzantines, as well as his illustrious forefathers. He explains their qualities, the methodology they followed, and how they engaged with the divine laws governing the building of states.

He also explains to the reader that the Ottoman rise during the era of Muḥammad al-Fātiḥ encompassed every sphere—scholarly, political, economic, media, and military—and that this culminated in the conquest of Constantinople, to which commanders, soldiers, princes, and scholars all contributed. He also discusses the repercussions of this great conquest throughout the Islamic world and its impact upon the European world.

This conquest was indeed a tremendous victory that Allah had reserved for this great sultan.
