D. in France. The plague killed everyone it touched, it was a quick death, people died so fast they ran out of places to bury the dead. Many of the people believed that the plague came from unbelievers. Some believed it came from God so they awaited death. People believed that the Jews caused the plague by poisoning the wells and started to kill off the Jews.
Jean believed that the plague was Gods will. After the plague the population grew rapidly because there were so many multiple births, but the plague left a defect on the new generation, they were missing teeth. The world came out of the plague more hostile to each other. In Germany, a group of men got together and marched around Europe, the French did not like what they stood for. Ibn al- Wardi writes of his accounts of the Black Death of 1348. He says that he is a servant to God and how he will protect him from the plague.

The Essay on The Black Plague People Death Europe
In the fourteenth century Europe was cursed by a deadly plague, which killed one third of Europe's people. This epidemic is known as the Black Death, or the Bubonic Plague. The plague was carried by rats and fleas along the trading posts, rapidly covering Europe. The plague is greatly effective when it attacks the weak and at this point in time Europe was already weakened from poor farming. The ...
The plague was named the ” Plague of An sab.” It was Islam’s sixth plague. The Prophet had warned them of this plague. Many nobles tried to use remedies, scenting and diets to keep the plague from them but were unable to. People asked what kind of sin brought this plague on and how could they fix it. They believed that the Sis caused the plague through their sins. The Muslim believed that the plague was a reward for punishing the unbelievers.
They believed this was a blessing from God because they were true believers. In the end the Muslim’s knew it was their faith that got them through the plague. Jean de Venette’s and Ibn al- Wardi’s accounts of the Black Death were very much different and similar. For instance both men had some foreseeing of this epidemic.
Venette’s was in the stars and al- Wardi’s was from prophet. They both described how the plague moved from country to country. Both societies were scared of the plague. No one would care for the sick in either society. Except for the small group of sisters in France who died of the plague. In both faiths they blamed another for causing the plague.
The Christian blamed the Jews saying they poisoned the wells and murdered them for it, while the Muslim’s blamed the Sis punishment. In De Venette’s account he wrote how the plague affected France afterwards, how it changed them. The plague had not changed them for the better but for the worst, people became more aggressive towards each other. Even the next generation was effected by the plague: they were missing teeth when they were born. In Ibn al- Wardi’s account he talks about his faith and how god was going to save them. Eventually the plague became a gift from God.
He says that the plague was martyrdom for the Muslims and a punishment for the unbelievers. Venn ete also believed it was sent from God and brought through the unbelievers. Venette felt it was brought to help change for the better, which did not happen. In Ibn al- Wardi’s eye the Muslim’s faith got stronger after the plague. To De Venette, society became more evil. Both so cities had very similar beliefs but dealt with them differently..
