A new translation directly from the original French manuscript of Voltaire's 1741 "Fanaticism, or Mohammed the prophet". This edition also contains supplemental material on Voltaire including an afterword by the translator, a timeline of Voltaire's life and works, summaries of each of the works in his corpus, and a glossary of Philosophic Terminology used by Voltaire. This tragedy was a favorite of Nietzsche who wrote in Human, All Too Human: "One only has to read Voltaire's Mahomet [Fanaticism] from time to time to see clearly in one's mind what has been lost once and for all to European culture through that breaking off of tradition. Voltaire was the last of the great dramatists who tamed his many-faceted soul, which was also able to withstand the greatest tragic storms, by means of Greek measures".

Mahomet is a play by the French Enlightenment thinker Voltaire. The play is a critique of religious fanaticism and intolerance, and features a portrayal of the founder of Islam, Muhammad. Despite being a work of fiction written in the 18th century, the play raises important questions about the nature of religious belief and its relation to violence and conflict. This book will appeal to anyone interested in the history of ideas, religion, and the Enlightenment.

Heretic and impostor or reformer and statesman? The contradictory Western visions of Muhammad In European culture, Muhammad has been vilified as a heretic, an impostor, and a pagan idol. But these aren’t the only images of the Prophet of Islam that emerge from Western history. Commentators have also portrayed Muhammad as a visionary reformer and an inspirational leader, statesman, and lawgiver. In Faces of Muhammad, John Tolan provides a comprehensive history of these changing, complex, and contradictory visions. Starting from the earliest calls to the faithful to join the Crusades against the “Saracens,” he traces the evolution of Western conceptions of Muhammad through the Reformation, the Enlightenment, and the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and up to the present day. Faces of Muhammad reveals a lengthy tradition of positive portrayals of Muhammad that many will find surprising. To Reformation polemicists, the spread of Islam attested to the corruption of the established Church, and prompted them to depict Muhammad as a champion of reform. In revolutionary England, writers on both sides of the conflict drew parallels between Muhammad and Oliver Cromwell, asking whether the prophet was a rebel against legitimate authority or the bringer of a new and just order. Voltaire first saw Muhammad as an archetypal religious fanatic but later claimed him as an enemy of superstition. To Napoleon, he was simply a role model: a brilliant general, orator, and leader. The book shows that Muhammad wears so many faces in the West because he has always acted as a mirror for its writers, their portrayals revealing more about their own concerns than the historical realities of the founder of Islam.

The All-Embracing Message of Islam reflects a glimpse of the message of all prophets, from Adam till Muhammad, clarifying that its nature is mercy, its aim is morality, and its purpose is happiness of people in this world and the one after. This compelling insight emphasizes that the context of interpretation and practice of this message should be its nature, aim, and purpose. It also pointed out that the Prophet Muhammad was sent as the exemplar of this message to all humanity to renounce religious fanaticism and enjoy compassion, love, and peaceful coexistence, which are most welcome in todays turbulent world.

Fanaticism turns the world on its head. It transforms the healing prescription of a messenger of God into noxious poison. In the middle of the 19th century in Persia, the founder of the Baha'I Faith described fanaticism as a world-devouring fire. He revealed a system for overcoming fanaticism which summons us to look beyond race, gender, religion, ethnicity and nationality and see ourselves as citizens of a unified world, owing our existence to a common Creator. This declaration produced a fierce fanatical reaction in Persia, where over 20,000 people who answered the call were brutally murdered in a wave of state-sanctioned persecution. Now over a century later, millions have embraced this unifying vision. This book will help you to understand why. Especially for those concerned with the outwardly intractable conflict between Muslims, Jews, and Christians, this book offers a beacon of light in these seemingly dark and hopeless times.

This book explores how the figure of the Prophet Muhammad was misrepresented in English and wider Christian culture between 1480 and 1735. By tracing the ways in which 'Mahomet' was written and rewritten, contested and celebrated, this study explores notions of identity and religion, and the resonances of this history today.
