Despite achieving and sustaining global measles vaccination coverage of about 80% over the past decade, worldwide measles remains the fifth leading cause of mortality among children aged <5 years. In May 2002, the United Nations Special Session on Children endorsed the goal of reducing measles deaths by half by 2005. Countries and World Health Organization (WHO) regions that adopted aggressive measles control or elimination strategies have shown excellent results. In 2001, countries in the Americas reported an all time low of 537 confirmed measles cases. Substantial progress in measles control has also been achieved in the WHO Western Pacific Region, in seven southern African countries, and in selected countries in WHO European, Eastern Mediterranean, and Southeast Asian regions. The ongoing measles disease burden and availability of safe and effective measles mortality reduction strategies make a compelling case to complete the unfinished agenda of measles immunization.

To understand the history of Islam correctly and comprehensively, it is essential to turn to the original sources and meticulously examine the scientific material scattered across hundreds of texts compiled by ancient scholars in various genres. This involves unraveling their contents, subjecting their chapters to criticism and analysis, and reconstructing the dispersed and decomposed components over time. It is no secret that the keys to the history of Al-Andalus have been neglected by both Arab scholars and Orientalists, who have preferred to interpret its history through European medievalism.
