No view of the modern world is complete without an understanding of Islam. To understand Islam, we must understand Muhammad – as prophet and man. More is known about Muhammad’s life than that of the founder of any other major faith, yet his story is frequently misunderstood, even deliberately distorted.
Now Karen Armstrong, author of the bestselling A History of God, has written a concise, balanced and illuminating portrait of this revered figure. Through comparison with other prophets and mystics she examines Muhammad’s spiritual ideas, and uses the facts of his life – from which Muslims have drawn instruction for centuries- to make the tenets of Islam clear and accessible for readers of all faiths.
