The Truth about Muhammad (by Robert Spencer)

THE TRUTH ABOUT MUHAMMAD by Robert Spencer (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“Robert Spencer provides a frank and accurate picture of the Muhammad that Muslims around the world revere.” (World Net Daily.com)

Spencer offers a telling portrait of the founder of Islam, detailing Muhammad’s development from a preacher of hellfire and damnation into a political and military leader who expanded his rule by force of arms and lurid promises. He also explains the development of the Qur’an’s teachings on warfare against unbelievers.

In The Truth about Muhammad, New York Times bestselling author and Islam expert Robert Spencer offers a 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 teachings on warfare against unbelievers developed, with constant war to establish the hegemony of Islamic law as the last stage.
