Excerpt from Mahometanism Unveiled, Vol. 1 of 2: An Inquiry, in Which That Arch-Heresy, Its Diffusion and Continuance, Are Examined on a New Principle, Tending to Confirm the Evidences, and Aid the Propagation, of the Christian Faith

As my argument will consist of a series of separate inductions, at the same time corroborative and independent Of each other, I would ask, in this respect, similar candour and indulgence to that which Dr. Paley has Claimed from the readers of his inimitable Home pauline: in his words, I desire, once for all, to intimate, that the instances are indep endent of one another. I have advanced nothing, which I did not think probable; but the degree of pro bability, by which different instances are supported, is undoubtedly very different. If the reader, therefore, meets with an in stance that appears to him unsatisfactory, or founded in mistake, he will dismiss that instance from the argument, but without prejudice to any other.

The plan of the work may be stated in few words. The principle on which the whole argument rests, is first presented in general terms; and then confirmed and elucidated through a series of inductive proofs. The Introduction contains the announcement of that fundamental prin ciple; the proofs of it will be found in the succeeding sections. With a view to the preservation of order, several topics of im portance have been transferred to the Ap pendix, at the close of the second volume.

But Your Lordship will not take the confession amiss, that I have another object in view; that I trespass on your indulgence a little further, as it may seem of some preliminary advantage, to notice briefly the circumstances, which led, first, to the conception, and, gradually, to the design and execution, of this inquiry into the rise of Mahometanism, and the real causes of its success.

These circumstances I can communicate to no living friend with so much propriety as to Your Lordship; since it was under your roof, and early in the period of that domestic intercourse, which, through a course of years, it has been the privilege and happiness of my life to enjoy, that the subject of the present work engaged my serious attention.

For a considerable time, I had read and thought on the Mahometan apostasy, purely for my own satisfaction.
