Irish writer Karen Armstrong confirmed that writing her book “Muhammad: Biography of the Prophet of Islam” aims to present a realistic and true image of Islam and the Messenger of God, peace be upon him and his family.
In one of her most famous books, Armstrong touched on the life of the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, which became the best-selling book in the United States.
In the book, Armstrong narrates the prophetic biography in a way that claims to reveal the truth of the Messenger, peace be upon him and his progeny, and corrects the false image presented by Salman Rushdie to the West.
The book includes a comparative study of the three Abrahamic religions, in which the writer talked about the influence of the West on Muslims and correcting the distorted image of Islam among Westerners.
In this context, Karen Armstrong also published the book “Muhammad: A Messenger for Our Time” in 2006, in which she discussed the life of the Prophet and his honorable biography.
This book is her second book about the Messenger, peace be upon him and his progeny, and it narrates the way Muslims understood their Prophet and how they believed in and sanctified him.
Karen Armstrong described the Prophet as an ascetic and a political and social reformer.
