Product Information

Ketika membaca Muhammad karya Lings ini, kita akan merasakan semacam efek kimia pada narasi dan komposisi bahasa yang terombinasi dengan keakuratan serta gairah sastrawi. Lings adalah cendekiawan-penyair,” Profesor Hamid Dabashi, Columbia University. It can be a delicate matter reviewing books that involve sacred texts and holy people. Let me be clear: this is a review of Muhammad the biography. It is not a review of Muhammad the Prophet. Aku seperti terhipnotis, tangan bergerak mengambil buku dengan tebal 555 hal hard cover di sebuah rak toko buku di Kota Malang. Membaca sampulnya, dan beberapa bab awal.

Muhammad - Martin Lings : Martin Lings, Abu Bakr Sirajuddin

In the end it might not be so important that this or that prophet did not actually do something that religious traditions mention. The simple fact that these traditions have an influence on how humanity views its position in this world is a worthwhileAlthough Muhammad is now out of Mecca, the Quraysh are still concerned about Muhammad's power in the region and they continue the oppression of Muslims. Muhammad receives a revelation that gives permission for the Muslims to fight. Muhammad recognizes that the Quraysh are most vulnerable in the caravans that pass between Mecca and the north. He plans to raid the caravans as they pass nearby, but the information isn't always accurate about the caravans' positions and they are missed sometimes. As Muhammad targets a wealthy caravan, word reaches the Quraysh about his plans and they gather an army to protect the caravan. The Muslim and Quraysh armies fight, even though the Quraysh have many more men. However, angels help the Muslims and they force the Quraysh to retreat. A writer throughout this period, Lings' output increased in the last quarter of his life. While his thesis work on Ahmad al-Alawi had been well-regarded, his most famous work was a biography of Muhammad, written in 1983, which earned him acclaim in the Muslim world and prizes from the governments of Pakistan and Egypt. His work was hailed as the "best biography of the prophet in English" at the National Seerat Conference in Islamabad.[2] He also continued travelling extensively, although he made his home in Kent. He died in 2005. Sangat digalakkan buat mereka yang mahu menyegarkan semula kefahaman sirah yang kita belajar sewaktu kecil dulu. Sollu 'ala nabi Agak lama ambil masa nak tamatkan bacaan sebab sambung baca antara senggang bacaan lain. Jarang nak baca naskhah bukan fiksyen tapi tertarik nak hadam jalan cerita kehidupan Rasullah dari awal kelahiran hingga wafat dan kebetulan ada cabaran bacaan Ramadan.

Buku Muhammad Karya Martin Lings: Membuatku Tersadar Tuk Pelajari Lebih Lanjut Tentang Nabi Muhammad SAW — Minggu lalu, sikap sombong, dingin, atau mungkin ketidakpedulian pada kekasih Allah sirna. Entah bagaimana aku mendeskripsikan tentang sikap dan tindakanku ini. It uses anachronistic English quoting people of the period; thee, thou and the smiting of thine foes abound H]e did us injury and wrote poetry against us; and none of you shall do this but he shall be put to the sword — Muhammad, in reply to complains about Ashraf's murder.Before you read more about Muhammad though, I want you to remember some things that I'm thinking about this book as I write this review. I have already read couple of books on Islam and Muhammad and have a better understand of it than I had had about two years ago—that pivotal time of my life when I left this faith. But most of those works were from nonbelievers. So I could not get rid of the idea that I haven't read works from the Islamic perspective. You, dear future me, then read this book, which was positively reviewed by Muslims. Also remember that the author, Martin Lings, had converted to Islam while writing this book. From his writing, you could easily discern why he had done so. You were sure therefore, that this writing by a converted Muslim would make you better understand the faith and its prophet. Made you better understand, it did. But made you think of it in a positive light, it did not. Hebatnya sang penulis yaitu Martin Lings, menulis biografi nabi tidak seperti menulis sebuah catatan sejarah yang membosankan. Martin menulis dengan sangat apik. Medina and jews' treachery. Richest spoils so far. Three Jewish regions agreed to pay tribute to Muhammad every year. What he needs of earthly goods, that scoundrel? Muhammad marries Safiyyah, widow of the leader of the clan (p 269)
