Historical context

More should be written about the parallel histories of other civilizations and what happened exactly during the time period immediately preceding and following the introduction of Islam as a religion. I for one would love to learn more about this era and what events historically occurred that facilitated the advent of Islam in the region. It would be wonderful to see a film that accurately depicted the events of that time.
