You are attending a community event, where a Muslim scholar (sometimes referred to by an honorary title 'shaykh') gives a public lecture about the origins of Islam. Citing Kitab al-Asnam (The Book of Idols), the shaykh outlines how 7th-century Arabs worshipped idols before Islam. With references to Quranic messages and the roles of the Prophet Muhammad as a trader and religious leader, he explains how Islam emerged and how early Muslims transcended their desert environment to establish the Islamic civilization we know today. At the end of the event, the organizers solicit feedback from all attendees, both Muslims and non-Muslims, to gauge the effectiveness of the presentation in enhancing understanding of Islam and its historical development.
