A title that jumps out and connects modernity to the ancient prophet.

Muhammad: Son of Abraham, Brother of Moses, Successor of Jesus

EKRAM HAQUE

A former journalist-turned-author of four books.

This is a biography of the Prophet Muḥammad, God’s last messenger preaching the same message as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Muslims, Christians, and Jews make up more than half of the world’s population. The world would immensely benefit if these three Abrahamic faiths could unite on basic principles. If Christians and Jews delve into their scriptures and history and do so with open minds, they will realize that they have so much in common with Muslims and one another. Muslims believe that the Prophet Muḥammad, like the prophets Moses and Jesus, came to unite the believers under God’s divine laws. Part of Islam’s mission is to confirm and complement the message of Moses and Jesus. The Qur’ān tells us that the Prophet Muḥammad preached the religion of his forefathers: Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, and other messengers who followed them. May God’s peace be upon them all! From the Qur’ān, we learn that Jesus foretold the coming of the Prophet Muḥammad. In conclusion, I invite our brethren from the Jewish and Christian faiths to read this biography of the Prophet Muḥammad with open minds and decide for themselves if the noble life described herein could be that of a true prophet of God. His triumphs and tragedies, prophecies and conduct, miracles and spirituality, his public and private life, and the revelations he recited deserve an open exploration. The truth emancipates us from irrational fear. Therefore, let us seek our religious creed with due diligence and without self-imposed constraints.

Primarily Muslims, secondarily Christians, Jews, and some curious folks.
