Book Summary

Muhammad: His Life Based on the Earliest Sources is a beautifully written biography that draws from classical Arabic sources to present a vivid, chronological account of the Prophet Muhammad’s life. From his birth in Mecca to the revelations of the Qur’an, the migration to Medina, and the establishment of a spiritual and political community, Lings narrates each event with clarity and devotion. The book captures not only the historical milestones but also the emotional and spiritual atmosphere of the time. It’s a work that blends storytelling with scholarship, making the life of the Prophet accessible to both Muslim and non-Muslim readers. Reverent yet readable, it’s often considered one of the most elegant biographies of the Prophet in English.

About the Author

He studied at Oxford and later served as Keeper of Oriental Manuscripts at the British Museum. A convert to Islam and a follower of the Sufi order, Lings brought both scholarly rigor and spiritual sensitivity to his writings. His biography of the Prophet Muhammad is widely praised for its lyrical prose, historical accuracy, and deep reverence.
