Actually Islam makes a great case study because it is a relatively "recent" religion. As a result there is a wealth of Islamic writings over the ages and from different nations, many of which have vastly diverging perspectives.

Most Muslims do not realize that much of their edicts and traditions were present before Islam or that they were in direct response to Jewish and Christian traditions.
