In The Truth about Muhammad, New York Times best-selling author and Islam expert Robert Spencer offers an honest and telling portrait of the founder of Islam - perhaps the first such portrait in half a century - unbounded by fear and political correctness, unflinching, and willing to face the hard facts about Muhammad's life that continue to affect our world today. Spencer details Muhammad's development from a preacher of hellfire and damnation into a political and military leader who expanded his rule by force of arms, promising his warriors luridly physical delights in Paradise if they were killed in his cause. He explains how the Qur'an's teaching on warfare against unbelievers developed, with constant war to establish the hegemony of Islamic law as the last stage.

It is really fantastic that Audible.co.uk offers such a diverse range of literature on it's website. "The Truth about Muhammad" adds an interesting and balanced account which is more topical today than ever before. Although I am against established religions per se, so have no "angle" (or loyalty to the religion of my ancestors!) It is clear from just browsing Audible.co.uk that there are plenty of books criticising Christianity and the other religions, far more than criticise Islam, but I don't hear people whining about them. That's because people still (at the moment) have a right to write books on topics that they choose to write about and have an expertise and interest in. Most civilised people respect that. It is therefore ridiculous to hysterically demand that someone writes sequels on other religions! My ancestors fought Hitler to ensure that EVERYONE could have an opinion without fear and intimidation. This book is well researched, interesting and fair. Buy it now!

I have passed over this author on several occasions as I did not want to read a one sided polemic against the father of Islam, but then finally downloaded this book and held my breath. Not only was I very surprised at the scholarly approach of the book but was very encouraged by the depth of Spencer's knowledge on the subject. It is encouraging in the sense that he adds credibility to his thesis by avoiding an over-interpretation of the subject matter, and simply lets the Koran/Hadith speak for itself. This is not an attack on Islam or Mohammad or a tyraid by an uninformed blogger spouting a 'western slant' on the patron of Islam, to satisfy some conspiratorial bias against Islam, but simply a well documented and researched collection of written evidence to answer the question 'Is Islam a religeon of peace?'. He is also not suggesting Muslims are not peaceful, but simply if Mohammads actions are to be held in such high esteem as to be considered virtuous above all others, the world is in for a very rough ride. I recommend it for dedicated truth seekers...enjoy!
