Mohammed and the Rise of Islam
This classic biography is not a religious text designed to either celebrate or denigrate Islam. It looks at Mohammed as a towering figure of culture and politics, a man who achieved the extraordinary: uniting disparate Arab tribes into a more cohesive whole. This book remains an important work for anyone wishing to understand the roots of one of the most intractable sociopolitical divides-between East and West, Muslim and Christian-still haunting the world today. Author David S. Margoliouth (1858-1940), a professor of Arabic at Oxford University, worked from primary Arabic texts and omitted "all anecdotes that are obviously or most probably fabulous," resulting in a clear-headed history of a highly contentious moment in time.
LIFE OF THE PROPHET (A BIOGRAPHY OF THE PROPHET MOHAMMED)
The Prophet Muhammad brought into the world the religion of Islam in its final form. His life continues to inspire millions and millions of people around the world. The Biography of Prophet Mohammed is the first to be written by a Muslim Woman and modern creative writer. The author wrote it in English without adding personal interpretations or comments. She wants the audience to do their own reading and find their own interpretations. Why a Muslim woman biographer of Prophet Mohammed? A simple answer is why not? Many modern Muslim women have the education and, hence, the authority to tackle suck projects. But the author did not have gender in mind when she first thought of writing this biography. The idea simply came to her as it would to any writer, reflecting the current prominence of Islam on the international scene and the resulting ignorance and prejudice of islamophobia. -- from publishers.
Mohammed
Originally published in 1936. This volume discusses the Islamic faith in the perspective of the ancient Arabian monotheism and its similarities with Christianity and Judaism. The similarities not only in dogma, but also in the ritual of Nestorian Christianity are discussed as well as an interpretation of Mohammed’s religious personality.

The Silence of Mohammed
Before becoming the prophet of Islam, Mohammed was a simple man of flesh and blood who started life as a poor orphan in the Arabian city of Mecca. Through his union with Khadija, he became a prosperous merchant and caravaneer. He was visited by God at the age of forty to become a prophet and visionary statesman. 'The Silence of Mohammed' is the story of "this exceptional man" (Bachi). Based on historical fact and legends, the novel presents a fictionalised account of the life of Mohammed told by four key characters: his first wife, Khadija his closest friend, Caliph Abu Bakr the fiery warrior, General Khalid and, his last love Aisha, who became his wife at the age of nine.
