Gibson also looks at the people of Midian mentioned in both the Bible and the Qur’an. The Qur’anic people of Thamud are examined next. Gibson looks at pre-Islamic Arabia, and ends with a look at Islam’s Holy City. He located the first holy city of Islam, by following the Qibla direction of early mosques.
