Abstract | ||||
Islam appeared in the territory of Central Europe over a thousand years ago; its historical presence, however, was not continuous. Muslims were present in the territory of Hungarian Kingdom two times: in medieval times, essentially since foundation of Hungarian state to half of 13th century, and in early modern period, during the Ottoman invasion to Central Europe. The presence of Muslims in medieval Hungary is the least known. This paper tries to find answers to questions about the emergence, duration and destruction of Islamic community in Hungary in pre-Ottoman period according to the synthesis of Arabic and Latin sources. | ||||
