Compassionate and clear...a courageous undertaking. --Greg Mortenson, New York Times bestselling author of Three Cups of Tea and Stones into Schools
As a scholar and storyteller extraordinaire, Deepak Chopra portrays a morally courageous yet highly human messenger of God. --Irshad Manji, Director, Moral Courage Project, New York University
From the New York Times bestselling author of Buddha and Jesus comes the page-turning and soul-stirring story of Muhammad. Deepak Chopra--easily one of the most influential spiritual leaders in the world today--delivers this stunning, sincere, and highly accessible portrait of the Prophet of Islam. Chopra's Muhammad is an outstanding resource for everyone who thinks they should know more about the man who inspired the world's fastest-growing religion.
Chopra reimagines the Prophet's journey not as scripture, but as a deeply human story told by those who knew him best.
- A Man Among Men: Follow Muhammad from his origins as an ordinary merchant and father to the astonishing moment in a mountain cave when the angel Gabriel commands him to recite.
- Multiple Viewpoints: Experience the story through the eyes of those who walked beside him--his wife Khadijah, his cousin Ali, believers, skeptics, and even his enemies.
- 7th-Century Arabia: Immerse yourself in the harsh, vibrant world of Mecca, a city of tribal conflict, caravan traders, and pagan gods on the brink of a spiritual revolution.
- A Spiritual Biography: From the bestselling author of Buddha and Jesus, this novel explores the internal struggles and unwavering faith that forged one of history's most influential figures.
