Book excerpt: Prophet Muhammad (SAW) started his mission of conveying the Divine Message and preaching the religion of truth to mankind, at the age of forty (40). At the age of sixty-three (63), he left his mortal remains in this world with an end of a life, which consecrated throughout to the service of Allah [SWT] and humanity. During this period of twenty-three (23) years of his Prophethood, he not only taught and lived by the religion of truth, which is the embodiment of the code of life revealed by Allah [SWT], for the guidance of mankind.Muhammad (SAW) was appointed by Allah [SWT] the final Prophet as the seal of the Prophethood with Quran, the completion of revelation i.e. the last and final of the Divine Books. With Muhammad (SAW), the seal of Prophets) and the Quran, the final Divine Book, has come the culmination of the Prophethood and religious evolution. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) revolutionized the complete Arabian Peninsula from paganism and idolatry to worship of Allah [SWT]. He transformed almost the whole of Arabian Peninsula from debaucher/drunkenness to piety/sobriety, from wars/ tribal quarrels to social cohesion/ solidarity, from lawlessness/ anarchy to organized/ disciplined living, and from moral bankruptcy to moral excellence of the highest standard. Entire human history has never known such an unmatched and complete transformation of people or place ever before or ever since. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was indeed by far the most remarkable personality that ever existed on this earth who not only revolutionized the worlds of human thought and behavior for all ages to come but also left with us the permanent, universal and eternal code of conduct & source of guidance for the benefit of all mankind. The purpose of this research study is to gain understanding of the life and work of Muhammad (SAW) to whom Allah [SWT] bestowed honor of representation of all the prophets and seal of the prophets with Quran as the final and permanent message for whole mankind and how against all odds he founded Islamic State and set the pace for early Islamic history to which billions of Muslim look with pride. This study is evidenced based from authentic sources of Quran and Sunah of the Prophet (SAW) and the great writers on the Serah.

Book Synopsis The History of Islam, Volume 1 by : S. E. Al-Djazairi
Download or read book The History of Islam, Volume 1 written by S. E. Al-Djazairi and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of The History of Islam focuses on the period elapsing from around the mid 6th century CE until the final years of the 9th.It begins, however, with a lengthy chapter dealing with modern narrative of Islamic history, and how this narrative, rather than improving with time, has simply deteriorated so much that Muslim history written in our day is largely incomprehensible.The work, then, relying on both Western and Muslim sources, old and new, deals with the more salient events of Islamic history. Its focus in this volume is on the rise and expansion of Islam and the early caliphate. The vast expansion under the first three caliphs of Islam and the Umayyad dynasty is dealt with in detail. The work includes maps that sum up different events taking place in different parts of the realm in order to provide an overview of Islamic history at a glance.
Book Synopsis Diplomacy in the Early Islamic World by : Maria Vaiou
Download or read book Diplomacy in the Early Islamic World written by Maria Vaiou and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-30 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arab messengers played a vital role in the medieval Islamic world and its diplomatic relations with foreign powers. An innovative treatise from the 10th Century ("Rusul al-Muluk", "Messengers of Kings") is perhaps the most important account of the diplomacy of the period, and it is here translated into English for the first time. "Rusul al-Muluk" draws on examples from the Qur'an and other sources which extend from the period of al-jahiliyya to the time of the 'Abbasid caliph al-Mu'tasim (218-227/833-842). In the only medieval Arabic work which exists on the conduct of messengers and their qualifications, the author Ibn al-Farr rejects jihadist policies in favor of quiet diplomacy and a pragmatic outlook of constructive realpolitik. "Rusul al-Muluk" is an extraordinarily important and original contribution to our understanding of the early Islamic world and the field of International Relations and Diplomatic History.
Book Synopsis The First Muslims by : Asma Afsaruddin
Download or read book The First Muslims written by Asma Afsaruddin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh look at the origins and development of Islam, this is a fascinating reconstruction of the era of the first three generations of Muslims. Using a wealth of classical Arabic sources, it chronicles the lives of the Prophet Muhammad, his Companions, and the subsequent two generations of Muslims, together known as the "the Pious Forebears". Examining the adoption in contemporary times of these early Muslims as legitimizing figureheads for a variety of causes, both religious and political, Afsaruddin tries to establish where their sympathies really lay. Essential reading for anyone interested in the inception of the Islam, this important book will captivate the general reader and student alike.

Book Synopsis The Venture of Islam, Volume 1 by : Marshall G. S. Hodgson
Download or read book The Venture of Islam, Volume 1 written by Marshall G. S. Hodgson and published by Chicago : University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1974-10-01 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Venture of Islam has been honored as a magisterial work of the mind since its publication in early 1975. In this three-volume study, illustrated with charts and maps, Hodgson traces and interprets the historical development of Islamic civilization from before the birth of Muhammad to the middle of the twentieth century. This work grew out of the famous course on Islamic civilization that Hodgson created and taught for many years at the University of Chicago. "This is a nonpareil work, not only because of its command of its subject but also because it demonstrates how, ideally, history should be written."—The New Yorker Volume 1, The Classical Age of Islam, analyzes the world before Islam, Muhammad's challenge, and the early Muslim state between 625 and 692. Hodgson then discusses the classical civilization of the High Caliphate. The volume also contains a general introduction to the complete work and a foreword by Reuben Smith, who, as Hodgson's colleague and friend, finished the Venture of Islam after the author's death and saw it through to publication.
Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook on Early Islam by : Herbert Berg
Download or read book Routledge Handbook on Early Islam written by Herbert Berg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-10 with total page 795 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formative period of Islam remains highly contested. From the beginning of modern scholarship on this formative period, scholars have questioned traditional Muslim accounts on early Islam. The scholarly fixation is mirrored by sectarian groups and movements within Islam, most of which trace their origins to this period. Moreover, contemporary movements from Salafists to modernists continue to point to Islam’s origins to justify their positions. This Handbook provides a definitive overview of early Islam and how this period was understood and deployed by later Muslims. It is split into four main parts, the first of which explores the debates and positions on the critical texts and figures of early Islam. The second part turns to the communities that identified their origins with the Qurʾān and Muḥammad. In addition to the development of Muslim identities and polities, of particular focus is the relationship with groups outside or movements inside of the umma (the collective community of Muslims). The third part looks beyond what happened from the 7th to the 9th centuries CE and explores what that period, the events, figures, and texts have meant for Muslims in the past and what they mean for Muslims today. Not all Muslims or scholars are willing to merely reinterpret early Islam and its sources, though; some are willing to jettison parts, or even all, of the edifice that has been constructed over almost a millennium and a half. The Handbook therefore concludes with discussions of re-imaginations and revisions of early Islam and its sources. Almost every major debate in the study of Islam and among Muslims looks to the formative period of Islam. The wide range of contributions from many of the leading academic experts on the subject therefore means that this book will be a valuable resource for all students and scholars of Islamic studies, as well as for anyone with an interest in early Islam.

Download or read book Narratives of Islamic Origins written by Fred McGraw Donner and published by Darwin Press, Incorporated. This book was released on 1998 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donner (Near Eastern history, Oriental Institute and U. of Chicago) challenges the scholarly assumption that the earliest Muslim believers wanted to write history out of "idle curiosity" and suggests that Islamic historical tradition resulted from a variety of challenges facing the community during the seventh to tenth centuries, C.E. He identifies the intellectual context in which Muslims began to think and write historically; sketches the issues, themes, and forms of the early Islamic historiographical tradition; considers the value of some radically revisionist interpretations of early Islam that have appeared in the past 20 years; and discusses the problem of sources in studying Islamic origins.

Book Synopsis The Book in the Islamic World by : George N. Atiyeh
Download or read book The Book in the Islamic World written by George N. Atiyeh and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1995-07-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book in the Islamic World brings together serious studies on the book as an intellectual entity and as a vehicle of cultural development. Written by a group of distinguished scholars, it examines and reflects upon this unique tool of communication not as a physical artifact but as a manifestation of the aspirations, values, and wisdom of Arabs and Muslims in general. The Islamic system of book production differed from that of the West. This volume shows the peculiarities of book making and the intellectual principles that governed a book's inner structure, mysteries, and impact on culture. Investigated and explained are the issues involved in printing; the compilation of the Koran, the most important book in Islam; attitudes toward books; the oral versus the written tradition; metaphors of the book in literature; biographical dictionaries, an important genre of Islamic books; the grammatical tradition; women's contribution to calligraphy; scientific manuscripts; the transition from scribal to print culture; publishing in the modern Arab World; and the new electronic media, a non-book vehicle of communication, and its impact on education.
