Paperback. Condizione: New. The sixth volume of the translation of al-?abari's History deals with the ancestors of Mu?ammad, with his own early life, and then with his prophetic mission up to the time of his Hijrah or emigration to Medina. The topics covered mean that this volume is of great importance both for the career of Muhammad himself and for the early history of Islam. Al-?abari was familiar with, and made use of, the main early source of these matters, the Sirah or life of Mu?ammad by Ibn Is?aq, a work which is still extant. Although his own treatment is briefer than that of Ibn Is?aq, it complements the latter in important ways by making use of other sources. Where Ibn Is?aq gave only the version of an event which he preferred, al-?abari includes any variants which he considered of value. Thus he mentions the dispute about the first male to become a muslim-'Ali or Abu Bakr or Zayd-and has also several variant accounts of the call to hostility toward Muhammad from many of the leading Meccans and their attempts to put pressure on his family to stop his preaching. The negotiations with the men of Medina which eventually led to the Hijrah are fully described, and there is then an account of how Mu?ammad escaped an assassination attempt and arrived safely in Medina. A concluding section discusses some chronological questions. This volume does not merely give a straightforward account of the earlier career of Mu?ammad and the beginnings of Islam, but also contains valuable source-material not easily accessible otherwise, or not accessible at all.

Wolfe, who asked them to write about home, friends and family, the war or whatever came into their minds. THe results were so moving and impressive that Wolfe had 2,000 copies printed at his own expense, while all the profits from Doubleday's edition went directly to the men ; "We cannot state too emphatically that this books is presented not as a literary effort but as a series of social documents."--foreword ; "If a foreigner should ask me what Americans were like in 1946, I would hand him this book. Naturally it is not the whole story. It is only the story of a fairly small group of young men among those most hurt in body and mind by the accidents of war. But somehow, putting down the war experiences that affected them most, these young men have uncovered a much larger segment of the reality of our time than they themselves seem to have been aware of."--John Dos Passos ; details of each serviceman and his unit included ; authors include: Joe V.
