It is a modern state driven by contemporary technology & yet its powerful religious establishment would have its customs & practices rolled back to match those of the Prophet Muhammed over a thousand years ago. In a world where events in the Middle East continue to have geopolitical consequences far beyond the region's boundaries an understanding of this complex nation is essential.
