The Origin of Islam invites readers into one of history's most transformative moments: the emergence of a faith that reshaped civilizations and continues to shape the modern world. Moving beyond simple timelines, the book explores the cultural, religious, and philosophical currents that converged in seventh-century Arabia. It traces how the message of the Prophet Muhammad arose in dialogue with Jewish, Christian, and indigenous traditions, and how this new community forged a vision of justice, devotion, and unity that would spread across continents.
Written with clarity and depth, the book balances rigorous scholarship with an accessible narrative style. It highlights not only the historical foundations of Islam but also the enduring questions it raises about revelation, authority, and the human search for meaning. Whether readers are approaching the subject for the first time or seeking a fresh perspective on familiar debates, The Origin of Islam offers a thoughtful, nuanced account that bridges past and present.
