Muhammad: What can we really know about him?
We know a great deal about Muhammad—or so it seems. Islamic tradition contains an astonishing wealth of information about the founding figure of the Islamic faith, and most historians take for granted that this material is generally reliable.
A Critical Examination of Muhammad's Life
In his latest book, historian and Islamic scholar Robert Spencer reveals that there is no agreement in the earliest Islamic sources about the most fundamental details of this towering figure’s life. Among the conflicting accounts are:
- The circumstances and contents of the first revelation he claimed to have received from Allah.
- The year of his birth.
- The length of his prophetic career.
- The name of the angel who supposedly appeared to him.
- Even his own name.
Exposing Contradictions and Inconsistencies
Muhammad: A Critical Biography takes a detailed look at the Islamic traditions regarding Muhammad and lays bare their contradictions, inconsistencies, and incoherence. Spencer continues the groundbreaking research he began in The Truth About Muhammad and Did Muhammad Exist?, exposing the shocking reality of how shaky Islam’s foundations really are.
- He meticulously explains why competing traditions may have been invented.
- He definitively demonstrates that, contrary to the complacency of establishment historians, the Muhammad of Islam is more legend than history, more fable than fact.
A Bold and Unflinching Work
Muhammad: A Critical Biography does the work that mainstream academics—who are either bought by Saudi Arabia or Qatar, or too afraid to depart from the herd—should have done long ago.
Not for the faint-hearted, this book will do nothing less than rock the Islamic world to its very core.
