Abstract

Analytical Review of Craig Considines, The Humanity of Muhammad: A Christian View (December 2020) This book, in particular, published in 2020, aims to create stronger bonds of understanding and peace between Christians and Muslims whose common human values continue to be promoted and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is protected. The author discusses several aspects of the Prophet’s life, religious pluralism, social justice, women’s rights, and the importance of knowledge, explaining these as remedies for our contemporary challenges. It references Quranic verses, Hadith, historical events and Sufi poetry as supplementary evidence in order to support its main arguments, that the basis of Islam is founded atop compassion and justice. It gained widespread acclaim but faced criticism for deviations from traditional Islamic teachings, including its unique interpretation of the finality of Prophethood. This review investigates where the book contributes to interfaith harmony as well as academic discourse in the field while also accounting for its limits.
