Bilden av profeten. Berättelserna om Muhammed förr och nu
Bilden av Muhammed är inte bara kontroversiell i västerlandet. Även inom islam finns det hundratals berättelser om profeten Muhammeds utseende och karaktär. Jan Hjärpe diskuterar olika perspektiv på bilden av profeten som den växer fram i koranens texter och i den muslimska traditionens olika berättelser.
