Books with title Muhammad of Mecca: Prophet of Islam

This important book is a biographical account of Prophet Muhammad's life, written in narrative style. It differs from other books on the subject of the Prophet Muhammad, as it touches on the Sufic aspects of his life. In this book, Farzana Moon sets out to portray the true spirit of Islam as a religion of peace and reconciliation, as practiced by the Prophet, and to correct contemporary misconceptions about this. The reader travels with Muhammad through his life and shares his most intense experiences: his love for his wife Khadijah, his passion for establishing peace in Arabia, his visions and ecstatic experiences, and his character as one of the most successful military commanders, leaders and social reformers of all time.

Islam, the religion of peace and reconciliation, as taught and practiced by the Prophet, comes alive in this book, preserving the pearl of truth from the heart of Qur'an and Prophet. Adeptly researched facts, free from the rust of lies and distortions are a fresh challenge to the reader; to discover lies about truth, if not truth blackened by lies. The message of his prophetic vision delineates the agony and ecstasy of his passion, which made him not only the Messenger of God, but the lover of the beloved. Many books have been written about the Prophet of Islam, but none so candid as to explore his spiritual heart filled with the light of love, compassion and understanding. The example of his life, as lived in loving-kindness and in perfect harmony with nature and mankind, are the living emblem of his message in this book. Prophet Muhammad: The First Sufi of Islam strives to fill a gap within the historic arena of Islam by touching the fabric of Prophet’s life as a family man, a loving father and husband.
