(14)Muhammad is the messenger of Islam. Born in Mecca in the year 570, Muhammad grew into a sensitive and thoughtful man who believed deeply in the worship of one true god. In his fortieth year, Muhammad experienced a revelation from the angel Gabriel that he, Muhammad, was the messenger of God. Over the next twenty-three years, he received many such revelations, all of which were written down by scribes at the time of revelation to become the Koran, the sacred scripture of Islam, a religion that is practiced by nearly one-quarter of the world's population and holds as its most sacred tenet that there is no god but God. Through a clear text and stunning illustrations based upon those of traditional Islamic expression, the award-winning artist Demi here introduces the remarkable life of the Prophet Muhammad for young readers.
Islamic tradition praises Asiyah, Mary, Khadijah, and Fatimah as the four women who showed monumental examples of excellence in faith. While Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the only woman mentioned by name in the Qur’an, the other three are mentioned in the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. Asiyah was the wife of Pharaoh and she was the one who protected Moses in the palace from the wrath of her furious husband. Mary is the epitome of purity and submission, who was miraculously blessed with Jesus, and she stood firm against all kinds of slanders and accusations. Khadijah was the first believer to the Prophet Muhammad. She spent all her fortune in her husband’s cause, including her life. Fatimah, the Prophet’s daughter, is the person through whom the Prophet’s generation still continues. This book depicts the lives of these four remarkable women of the human history.
