Description:

Co-sponsorship: Muslim Societies, Global Perspectives, School of Religion, Department of History, Office of Faith and Spiritual Life.

In the midst of the dramatic seventh-century war between two empires, Muhammad was a spiritual seeker in search of community and sanctuary. Many observers stereotype Islam and its scripture as inherently extreme or violent-a narrative that has overshadowed the truth of its roots. In this masterfully told account, Dr. Cole takes us back to Islam's-and the Prophet Muhammad's-origin story.
