Publisher's Summary

The Life of Mohammed: The Sira is a condensed version of the biography of Mohammed, a man who became the first ruler of a united Arabia and laid the foundation for the empire of Islam. The Sira is not just a biography but it is also a sacred Islamic text of how devout Muslims should conduct their life. 

Mohammed's life is an epic story. He was an orphan who rose from poverty to become the first ruler of all of Arabia. He created a new religion, new methods of war, and a new political system, including a legal code, the Sharia. 

Mohammed was the world's greatest warrior. Today no one wages war in the name of Caesar, Alexander the Great, Napoleon, or any other military leader. However, every year many people die because of Mohammed. After 1400 years, Islam is still a powerful force in our world. Mohammed said that one day all of the world would live under his rule of law, the Sharia. 

To understand Islam, you must know the life of Mohammed. The Koran commands that every Muslim is to live a life identical to his. The religion of Islam is about worshiping Allah exactly as Mohammed did. 

The Life of Mohammed: The Sira is a unique book that provides a concise taste of Islam and is completely authoritative. The reference system allows you to verify all information in the source texts.

Misleading

The narrator spends the first quarter of the narration trying to convince you that he has done this with no bias only to go on a bias rant of his opinion with the hope that you will be swayed by his opening rant that he is doing this with an open mind and no bias. Epic fail. He excludes far to much commentary that puts everything into context and in doing this presents his opinion that is not based on any true context. His disclaimer at the start that says he will be excluding many elements and parts of what makes up Islam is enough to show that you were never going to be presented with anything less than his opinion and thoughts. This is nothing but an attempt to paint Islam and the prophet in a bad light disguised as a non biased commentary based on facts!!!! Yeh right

Excellent entry level text

This is an excellent entry level text for anyone who wants to understand Islam. Many will find Islam confronting because of the barbarity that accompanied its rise, has been preserved in the three doctrines of the Sharia, and is still in practice today.

I recommend all the work of Dr Bill Warner.
