Customer Reviews
a convincing book - essential reading not only for casual - Rated A short account of the life and achievements of one of the great figures in history, this volume also serves as an excellent introduction to one of the world's major religions. Written with objectivity, the book opens with a background chapter on the birth and early life of the Prophet in Mecca. Dr. Watt tells of Muhammad's struggle to make his way as an untrained orphan in the city's commercial world, and his call to prophethood as a result of visions. He recounts the writing down of the Prophet's revelations in teh Qua'an (with an explanation of its passages); Muhammad's betrayal, expulsion from Mecca, and migration to Medina; and his rise to politcal power in Arabia. Throughout Dr. Watt makes clear the social and political background out of which Islam was born, expecially the influence of Judaism and Christianity.
