This book sheds new light on Jerusalem's status in early Islam. The sanctity of the city is already discerned in the Qurʾān. The vision of redemption that the Qurʾān displays coincides with the messianic expectations that have swept throughout the entire region, especially among the Jews, due to the attempted renewal of Jewish liturgy in Jerusalem following the Persian victory over Byzantium in 614. On the other hand, the Qurʾān also portrays the holiness of Mecca and the Kaʿba. This book shows how it promotes their pre-Islamic holiness around the image of Abraham and Ishmael. The changing balance between the sanctity of Jerusalem and the sanctity of Mecca, in favor of the latter, is noticeable in the Qurʾān as one proceeds from the Meccan sūras to the Medinan ones. The change occurs against the background of the twist in relations between Muḥammad and the Jews. This book also points out the correlation between Muḥammad's situation in Medina and events in Palestine involving the victory of the Byzantines over the Persians in 628, as alluded to in the opening passage of Sūrat al-Rūm (30). Thie work illuminates the growing sanctity of Jerusalem following the arrival of the first Muslims to Palestine. As in the Qurʾān, Mecca continued to struggle to preserve its status as a holy city vis-à-vis that of Jerusalem. Key aspects of this struggle are reflected in traditions in which patterns of sanctity move from Jerusalem to Mecca, and which this book also scrutinizes.

The founders of this great nation were learned men and women; whereas, their words in the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution as applicable today as they were in 1776. EQUALITY, LIFE. LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS "Whenever any from of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government." Thomas Jefferson "I am mortified to be told that, in the United States of America, the sale of a book can become a subject of inquiry, and of criminal inquiry too." Thomas Jefferson RELIGION "All national institutes of churches, whether Jewish, Christian, or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions set up to terrify and enslave manking, and monopolize power and profit." Thomas Paine "The Christian religion is a paradoy on the worship of the sun, which they put a man whom they call Christ, in place of the sun, and pay him the same adoration which was originally paid to the sun." Thomas Paine Every American has the right or not to worship anything they choose as their religious entity, however, when that entity become superior in loyalty to the United States of American, then the people must rise up and restablish the dictates of the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.

Marine General Butlers enlightenment to the American people back in the 1930s was discarded just as the many publications, Internet, and books regarding the September 11, 2001 aerial attack on the United States of America. After General Butler, President Dwight David Eisenhower told the nation of the continuous dangers of the military-industrial complex; however, individuals like former Vice President Richard Cheney took us to war in Afghanistan and Iraq under the false threat of international terrorism. On or about September 20, 2016, a National Geographic documentary reported the questioning of President Saddam Hussein by a designated Federal Bureau of Investigations agent. From the interview, we learned President Hussein did not have any weapons of mass destruction nor was there an association with the religious zealot Osama bin Laden. Moreover, an Internet report, allegedly written by a minister of the British Government, cited a Pentagon PDAS stand policy for US Air Defense aircraft; whereas, allowing the hijacked airliners to proceed to their targets. Lastly, the Royal Saudi Government was not complicit in the 9/11 attack but individuals in our own government for the sale of military logistics and removing Saddam Hussein from power, at the behest of Israel. President George W. Bush is on tape confirming how Israel demanded the removal of Saddam Hussein and the 1998 Congress passed the 1998 Iraq Liberation Act to assure said action.

The oldest Islamic biography of Muhammad, written in the mid-eighth century, relates that the prophet died at Medina in 632, while earlier and more numerous Jewish, Christian, Samaritan, and even Islamic sources indicate that Muhammad survived to lead the conquest of Palestine, beginning in 634-35. Although this discrepancy has been known for several decades, Stephen J. Shoemaker here writes the first systematic study of the various traditions. Using methods and perspectives borrowed from biblical studies, Shoemaker concludes that these reports of Muhammad's leadership during the Palestinian invasion likely preserve an early Islamic tradition that was later revised to meet the needs of a changing Islamic self-identity. Muhammad and his followers appear to have expected the world to end in the immediate future, perhaps even in their own lifetimes, Shoemaker contends. When the eschatological Hour failed to arrive on schedule and continued to be deferred to an ever more distant point, the meaning of Muhammad's message and the faith that he established needed to be fundamentally rethought by his early followers. The larger purpose of The Death of a Prophet exceeds the mere possibility of adjusting the date of Muhammad's death by a few years; far more important to Shoemaker are questions about the manner in which Islamic origins should be studied. The difference in the early sources affords an important opening through which to explore the nature of primitive Islam more broadly. Arguing for greater methodological unity between the study of Christian and Islamic origins, Shoemaker emphasizes the potential value of non-Islamic sources for reconstructing the history of formative Islam.

The contents of this volume are extremely significant: The specific events in this earliest period set precedents for what later became established Islamic practice. The book deals with the history of the Islamic community at Medina during the first four years of the Islamic period--a time of critical importance for Islam, both as a religion and as a political community. The main events recounted by Ṭabarī are the battles between Muḥammad's supporters in Medina and their adversaries in Mecca. Ṭabarī also describes the rivalries and infighting among Muḥammad's early supporters, including their early relations with the Jewish community in Medina.
