About This Book

A popular essay offers a critical biographical study of the prophet of Islam, outlining his early life, claimed revelations, establishment and expansion of the Islamic community, and the shaping influence of oral tradition. It questions the reliability of later reports that sanctify his person, examines moral controversies—particularly marital practices and women's status—and considers how claimed revelations affected authority and law. The narrative is presented from a Christian missionary perspective and connects historical analysis to contemporary concerns about missionary engagement with Muslim societies.
