What are the dates of important and contemporary Islamic events?

History is an important school for a Muslim. The Qur’an and the Sunnah have narrated the stories of past peoples for us to derive lessons and admonitions, as Allah Almighty says: "There was certainly in their stories a lesson for those of understanding." To learn about Islamic historical events, you can refer to theikh.com's History and Geography section, or the Islamic History and Civilization Library cassette series.
