Editorial Reviews
Review
"Lings provides a wealth of detail on the life of Muhammad, the time and place of many Koranic revelations, and the foundation of Islam, all based exclusively on 8th- and 9th-century Arabic biographical sources and collections of the sayings attributed to Muhammad. General readers will find a well-written, straightforward chronological narrative; Muslim readers will appreciate the favorable treatment of Muhammad; while specialists will find a faithful and convenient rendering of source material."
(Joseph Gardner, California State Univ. Lib., Northridge
Library Journal )
". . . this revised edition incorporates the author's final updates made before his 2005 death and contains numerous important additions about modern Islam; so even if you have a prior volume, don't miss this."
(Diane C. Donovan, California Bookwatch, Feb 2007 )
The Islamic Quarterly
'This is easily the best biography of the Prophet in the English language.' Dr. Victor Danner (Indiana University) 'An enthralling story that combines impeccable scholarship with a rare sense of the sacred worthy of his subject.' (The Spectator) 'Muhammad is a true work of art, as enthralling as the best novels with the difference that this is not fiction but fact.'
