Muhammad: The Man Who Changed the World - In the Eye of the Sand Storm - Muhammad's Journey: One Man, One Book, One World #984924

Recommended reading! A true and fascinating story: how a religion, a holy book, and an empire were born from sandstorms.
Some 1,400 years after his death in the Arabian desert, the figure of Muhammad continues to exert a powerful influence on the entire world. From then until today, the echoes of his three immense creations have not subsided: a monotheistic religion – Islam; a holy book – the Quran; and a vast empire, which stretched from India in the east to the Pyrenees mountain range in southern France. In this book, the author recounts the life and deeds of Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam. He presents the reader with a broad array of information about the desert land, the Arabian Peninsula, its Bedouin inhabitants and their customs, the cities of Mecca and Medina, and the holy Kaaba, as well as the story of Muhammad’s life: the wondrous tales about him, the revelations, the dilemmas, the persecutions, the growth and consolidation, his attitude toward the Jews of the Peninsula, his death and the void he left—which threatened to extinguish the young religion—and the events that unfolded after his passing. In the book, the author lays, clearly and systematically the foundations for understanding the phenomenon of Muhammad, whose influence, it seems, does not fade with time but only continues to intensify. The book is intended for knowledge‑seekers of all ages, from every nation and religion. The author draws on dozens of diverse sources, and the result is a fascinating document written in fluent prose that sheds light on one of the most astonishing phenomena in human history.
