Seerah [Based on the Earliest Sources] - Martin Lings - Kostenlose Archiv-Audioinhalte

Martin Lings' biography of Muhammad, unlike any other, is based on Arabic sources of the eighth and ninth centuries (of which some important passages are translated here for the first time). It owes its freshness and directness of approach to the words of the men and women who heard Muhammad speak and witnessed the events of his life. With an unusual gift for the narrative, Lings has adopted a style that reflects both the simplicity and the grandeur of the story he tells. His book will be appreciated and enjoyed by those already familiar with Muhammad's life as well as those approaching it for the first time.
