As a person who knew very little of Muhammad, this book was very informative and gave a spectacular narrative of the prophet's life.

Well written and narrated

I first attempted to listen to the copy of ibn Ishaq within the first few minutes it was painfully obvious that the translation had been undertaken and the reading sponsored by someone who had a personal grudge against Islam so looking for more reputable and unbiased source I picked this book covers all the necessary basis

better than ibn Ishaq

Very enjoyable book, balanced and informative. The narrator is compelling. No imposition of opinions or explanations.

Storytelling without imposing opinion

I enjoyed learning about the prophet peace be upon him. showcasing different passages of his life, his early childhood, his marriages, and the way he interacts with people truly shows him as a great leader, husband and overall role model.

The authors archaic Shakespearean way of writing truly gave this book its own artistic taste.

Beautiful Narration, Story is nice
