About this audiobook
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.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Please do proper research before acting up like you know everything. I am a Muslim and I study Islamic psychology and actually know the history of Islam and it’s origin. Everything he talks about in this book is complete bias if you don’t believe me dig deeper yourself.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I found this book extremely biased and a poor representation of Islam and prophet Mohammed. What worries me more is that because it's concise non Muslims would read and listen to it and make wrong judgment. The Quran has been quoted out of context. I'm truly surprised that his book actually got published. One can just look up Wikipedia and see the disparities.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Islamaphobic nonsense from a self acclaimed expert. Wrongly titled. Not much critical thought; misuses words such as 'fact' and 'scientific' over and over again. Author uses their own personal view in contrast to what they say they will do. Avoid.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Totally irrelevant to the subject... The title is absolutely misleading... This is nothing but a hate book, by cherry picking verses and other sayings out of context. It can be well said that its the other extreme version of people we have. Unfortunately there is no other way to give negative rating, otherwise i would have done so... I am wondering if the author is still alive ;)

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The bad reviews prove his point entirely. Almost everything he says is objectively true and I highly recommend this book to everyone who thinks Islam is a "religion of peace".
