Hello I am a non Muslim looking for recommendations for non orientalist works on Muslim history and philosophy. I have a large collection of Islamic works but they are from orientalist sources and I need to expand my knowledge. I am particularly fond of Destiny Disrupted by Tamim Ansary and History of the Muslim World by Michael Cook. I have also recently bought Islam and Secularism by Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas. I can read Turkish and English and I have some knowledge in Arabic too so anything like that please recommend.

Thank you

My pastor is retiring so my Bible study group has been officially canceled. I want to try to self study but I don't know where to start and what to do.
