The first step to knowledge is purity of purpose. My purpose is to learn, and to share as I learn. This podcast is an invitation to join me on my journey deeper into Islam, its history and its place in the world we live in today.
As in all things, we start from the beginning. The first book I will be reading is Adil Salahi's masterful biography of the Prophet of Islam 'Muhammad: Man and Prophet.' This tells the story not only of the prophet, but also the religious and cultural development of the religion that is followed by a quarter of the global population.

Chapter 4 - The Makkan Scene at the Start of Prophethood
Although this chapter doesn't discuss events specific to Muhammad (PBUH)'s life, it is useful to understand a little more about the society around him before he received the first revelation. From this, we can understand how radical his message was, and the strength of reaction to it.

Introduction to 'Muhammad: Man and Prophet'
Join me as I begin reading the story of the Prophet that brought the religion of Islam to the world, over 1440 years ago. There is so much written and said about the man, but who was he? What do we know about his personality and character? What did he teach, and to whom? How did he live his life and what can we learn from him? These are all questions I want to know the answers to. I invite you to find the answers with me, by reading this masterful biography authored by Adil Salahi (Islamic Foundation, Kube Publishing).
