Muhammad: His Life Based on the Earliest Sources

Product Information

When companions sold arms and armours, Muhammad said "a body of my people will not cease to fight for the truth until the coming forth of the Antichrist​"​ (p 329). For Muslims, the book is an eloquently written narrative of the Prophet(PBUH) which provides chronology and context for the revelation of the the Holy Qur'an and the several important hadiths. Asma Asfaruddin said the book is a rare example of "a gift of narration wedded to impeccable scholarship". Muhammad is a true work of art, as enthralling as the best novels with the difference that this is not fiction but fact. Muhammad: His Life Based to the Earliest Sources" was selected as the best biography of the Prophet in English at the National Seerat Conference in Islamabad in 1983.

Martin Lings (1909-2005) was a renowned British scholar with degrees in English and Arabic from London University and Oxford University. The reliability of sources remain a thorny question in Islam, where even the Quran is not perfectly preserved as Muslims and Allah claim.
