it was amazing

I had read this some time back, and just recently purchased my own copy. Karen Armstrong provides a great source of history during the time period and brings clarity to what transpired. I recommend this book to those interested in reverting to Islam, before reading the Quran; as well as, to non-Muslims, so they would have a better understanding of whom Muhammad (pbuh) actually was. In the beginning of this book, Karen does a great job of writing how other religious groups have suffered for their beliefs. Where the lies born of imagination, were spread about them that lead to fear mongering, and simply having a different faith, meant it was acceptable to discriminate, and even kill. Sadly, the same fear mongering about Muhammad (pbuh) from the middle ages, still echoes today and I often see it reiterated time and time again, it is very sad that in this day in age how much ignorance still exists regarding Muhammad (pbuh) and Islam . I thought this book was thought provoking as well as educational. Great read!
