The term Jahiliya Period is an Islamic term that refers to the period in the Arabian Peninsula prior to Muhammad and Qur'anic Islam. The word "Jahiliya" is an Arabic word meaning "Ignorant" since, according to the Muslims who coined the term, the Arabs at that time were ignorant of the Truth of Islam. The Jahiliya Period was generally composed of a fragmented Arabian peninsula, with numerous warring tribes, some of which had brutal and repressive customs. Muslims argue that a number of tribes buried women alive. However, there was a strong element of religious pluralism and poetry contests were established as a high form of artistry. It was also during this period that much of the Arabic language became more-or-less standardized across the various tribes because of the poetry contests and developed its own unique script.

Islam fundamentally changed the power dynamics, organization, and ethnic composition of the Middle East.

In Usr al-Jahiliya (or the Age of Ignorance [before Islam]), the Arab tribes quarreled and fought with each other for control of cities and trade routes. The amount of disunity and polemics in those communities made them far from interesting in Civilized Eyes. The Levant, Egypt, and Anatolia were controlled by the declining Byzantine Empire at the time and Persia and Iraq were controlled by the Sassanids (who were also in decline).

Islam unified the Arab tribes and allowed them to take the Levant and half of Anatolia from the Byzantines and completely absorb the Sassanid Empire. Arabs moved from what is today Saudi Arabia into the Levant, Iraq, and Egypt and began to ethnically mix with the indigenous inhabitants. This produced a flowering of technology and the arts, civilizing the native inhabitants. It also led to the establishment the world's first universities and libraries with endless books in medicine, astronomy, law, philosophy, mathematics, and science.
