What reading level is The Spirit of Islm a History of the Evolution And Ideals of Islm book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . The sovereign exists for the good of his people. " " The necessity of a ruler, " continues this remarkable writer, whose keenness of observation was equalled by his versatility, " arises from the fact that human beings have to live together, and unless there is some one to maintain order, society would break to pieces. A temporal sovereign only enforces such orders as are promulgated by man, but the laws framed by a divinely- inspired legislator have two objects in view — the moral as well ...as social well-being of mankind. The Caliph is the Vicar and Lieutenant of the Prophet. He is more than a temporal ruler, he is a spiritual chief as well. The Caliph is thus designated the Imam, his position being similar to that of the leader of the congregation at the public prayers. " " This establishment of an Imam, " continues Ibn-Khaldun, " is a matter of obligation. The law which declares its necessity is founded on the general accord of the Companions of the Prophet. The Imam is the spiritual head, whilst the Caliph or Sultan represents the temporal power.
