The author builds his narrative fully depending on the eighth and ninth century Arabic sources, particularly the sayings of the men and women who witnessed the Prophet’s life. The beauty of the language he employs to reflect the grandeur and simplicity of the Prophet’s life is highly engaging and impressive. I read it straight through, then re-read it, almost in its entirety, fascinated. - Titus Burckhardt An excellent introduction to the subject and very well written - Annemarie Schimmel ER -
