Muhammad

Muhammad (c. 570–632), the prophet of Islam, is represented here through Selections from the Koran — passages from the scripture Muslims regard as revelation. Born in Mecca and later the leader of a community at Medina, he is understood in Islam as the Seal of the Prophets. These selections offer English-language readers a way into a text that is at once poetry, guidance, and the foundation of a world faith.
