War and Peace in the Life of the Prophet Muhammad

This book explores the Islamic ideals of peaceful coexistence and freedom of faith through the life of the Prophet Muhammad.

Summary

By analyzing the Prophet's conduct in war and his measures for ensuring peace the misperception that Islam is inextricably linked with violence can be allayed. The major battles in the early history of Islam are studied in the wider context of Islamic teachings on war and peace, as are the Qur'anic verses which allow Muslims to wage war, if necessary.
