Muhammad: Man and Prophet: A Complete Study of the Life of the Prophet of Islam

Visionary, warrior, founder of Islam and of the unified Arab empire - the prophet Muhammad initiated religious and cultural developments of monumental significance in the history of mankind. This biography covers his eventful life from his birth in Mecca in AD 570, in an era of change and political unrest amongst the feuding Arab clans. It tells of his childhood in the desert, his divine revelation in 610, his early preaching and wrangles with the Meccan clans, his first military victory at Badr (which he interpreted as divine intervention), and his eventual triumphant march into Mecca with 10,000 warriors behind him.
