The Life of Muhammad
In THE LlFE OF MUHAMMAD, Haykal achieves two objectives admirably: first, a biography which reveals the career of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the full light of historic reality; second, bringing out the essence of Islam, as exemplified in the life of the greatest Muslim. It includes complete coverage of the Prophet's life, a detailed analysis of pre-Islamic Arabia, the situational context of revelation, and a comparative study of the basics of lslamic and western civilizations. It is based upon a scholarly examination of all of the extant Sirah and Hadith literature (the Prophet's life, his sayings and narrations of his teachings by his contemporaries) with the eye of an objective, scientific and critical scholar who is well-versed in modern historical critical methodology. THE LlFE OF MUHAMMAD is an essential book for all English-speaking Muslims, as well as non-Muslims. This English version has been approved by the Supreme Council for lslamic Affairs, Cairo.
The Generalship of Muhammad
His campaigns, military thought, and insurgent strategy There are many biographies of the Prophet, and they tend to fall into three categories: pious works that emphasize the virtues of the early Islamic community, general works for non-Muslim or non-specialist readers, and source-critical works that grapple with historiographical problems inherent in early Islamic history.

The Development of Trans-Jordan 1929-1939
Very little has been written about the 1929-1939 history of Trans-Jordan-a decade of importance in the history of its struggle for independence and sovereignty, its progress and development, its relations with Palestine and the neighboring Arab countries, and the new awakening of Arab nationalism. During the 1930s, although still under the mandate of the League of Nations (which was entrusted to Great Britain), Trans-Jordan began to develop an international presence. The people remained very poor however, and the government was supported by a grant-in-aid from the British government. The British Resident in Amman, Col. Henry Cox, used that grant-in-aid as a justification for his financial an...

Sirah Nabawiyah
Menurut Syekh Shafiyurahman al-Mubarakfuri bahwa pada hakikatnya Sirah Nabi adalah gambaran risalah (misi) yang dibawa oleh Rasulullah saw. kepada umat manusia, untuk mengeluarkan mereka dari kegelapan menuju cahaya, dari ibadah kepada hamba menuju ibadah kepada Allah. Gambaran risalah yang menawan dan sempurna ini tidak mungkin dapat dihadirkan kecuali setelah melakukan komparasi antara latar belakang risalah ini dan implikasi-implikasinya. Oleh karena itu, Syekh Shafiyurahman menulis sejarah Nabi saw. dengan model pembahasan secara detail, baik dari segi bahasan per bahasan maupun kisah per kisah. Antara lain, pembahasan seputar kaum-kaum Arab dan perkembangannya sebelum Islam, juga tentang situasi dan kondisi saat Nabi Muhammad saw. diutus, dan bahasan lain sebagainya. Buku Sirah Nabawiyah ini adalah Juara ke-1 pemenang lomba penulisan sirah Nabi yang diadakan oleh Rabithah al-Alam al-Islami Arab Saudi. Karya ini merupakan karya yang sangat lengkap dan komprehensif tentang penulisan sejarah perjalanan hidup Rasulullah saw.. [Gema Insani]
