As the Messenger of God, Muhammad stands at the heart of the
Islamic religion, revered by Muslims throughout the world. The
Cambridge Companion to Muhammad comprises a collection of essays by
some of the most accomplished scholars in the field exploring the
life and legacy of the Prophet. The book is divided into three
sections, the first charting his biography and the milieu into
which he was born, the revelation of the Qur'ān, and his role
within the early Muslim community. The second part assesses his
legacy as a law-maker, philosopher, and politician and, finally, in
the third part, chapters examine how Muhammad has been remembered
across history in biography, prose, poetry, and, most recently, in
film and fiction. Essays are written to engage and inform students,
teachers, and readers coming to the subject for the first time.
They will come away with a deeper appreciation of the breadth of
the Islamic tradition, of the centrality of the role of the Prophet
in that tradition, and, indeed, of what it means to be a Muslim
today.
