Description

No view of the modern world is complete without an understanding of Islam. To understand Islam, we must understand Muhammad as a Prophet and Man. British author Karen Armstrong explains the "western shallow understanding" of Muslims’ prophet Muhammad and presents a clear and solid account of His biography. She clears up a huge amount of western fallacies about the Prophet, presenting credible justifications and rich referencing. Armstrong emphasizes the importance of approaching his life in a balanced way to appreciate his considerable achievements. She affirms that Muhammad’s struggle was not driven by a hope to impose religious orthodoxy but to change people’s hearts and minds. He was entrusted to convey and disseminate Allah’s final religion and extricate people from the darkness of ignorance and despotism. Armstrong highlights the long history of Islamophobia in Western culture and calls for a balanced appreciation of Muhammad's life and achievements. Misconceptions about Muhammad and His religion cultivate inaccurate prejudice, which harms human values of tolerance, liberality, and compassion.
