Islam maintained a sound relationship with early modern England, while the former shared political, diplomatic, commercial, cultural, and religious affairs with the latter. This paper aims at investigating the commercial, cultural and religious affairs encountered by Islam and Elizabethan England. This paper also focuses on the contribution of the Muslim world in building 16th century England. The findings reveal that early modern Britons enjoyed complete freedom to travel to Islamic countries and got business access. The findings also reveal that in the 16th-century Muslim world, people of different religions, including Christianity and Jews, lived harmoniously in a common geographical boundary. In conclusion, Islam played a vital role in building early modern England. Overall, the present Muslim leaders should come forward to redeeming the sweet relationship, once enjoyed by Islam with England, and contributing significantly in re-building the relationship with the West, especially Britain.
