Paperback. One of the earliest surviving biographies of Prophet Muammad, translated into readable, modern English for the first time The Expeditions is one of the oldest biographies of the Prophet Muammad to survive into the modern era. Its primary author, Mamar ibn Rashid (96-153/714-770), was a prominent scholar from Basra in southern Iraq who was revered for his learning in prophetic traditions, Islamic law, and the interpretation of the Quran. This fascinating foundational seminal work contains stories handed down by Mamar to his most prominent pupil, Abd al-Razzaq of Sanaa, relating Muammad's early life and prophetic career as well as the adventures and tribulations of his earliest followers during their conquest of the Near East. This new translation, which renders the original text into readable, modern English for the first time, is accompanied by numerous annotations elucidating the cultural, religious, and historical contexts of the events and individuals described within its pages.
