Robert Bruce Spencer Bücher

In The Truth about Muhammad, Robert Spencer revealed the shocking contents of the earliest Islamic biographical material about the prophet of Islam. Now, in Did Muhammad Exist?, he uncovers that material's surprisingly shaky historical foundations. Spencer examines historical records, archaeological findings, and new scholarship to reconstruct what we can know about Muhammad, the Qur'an, and the early days of Islam.

Best-selling author Robert Spencer compares Islam with Christianity and shows that, far from being "sister religions" with similar core doctrines and morals, they're actually separated by "a great chasm" of belief and practice. A much-needed rejoinder to those who dream of an easy alliance between the two faiths.

This comprehensive history examines the role of war and terror in the spread of Islam, challenging the common belief that Islam is fundamentally peaceful and that jihad terrorism is a recent phenomenon. Islamic scholar Robert Spencer asserts that Islamic terror has existed since the inception of Islam, tracing its roots back to Muhammad, who claimed, "I have been made victorious through terror." The narrative spans 1,400 years, detailing the jihad against Europe, including the 700-year effort to conquer Constantinople, the prolonged struggle in Spain where non-Muslims resisted invaders, and the devastating jihad in India. The account is enriched by contemporary chroniclers, both Muslim and non-Muslim, illustrating that jihad warfare has been a consistent aspect of Islam from its beginnings. Present-day jihad terrorism is shown to be rooted in the same ideological and theological foundations as historical Islamic warrior states. This work is the first comprehensive English-language history of jihad, revealing the brutal aspects of Islam's past at a time when Islamic jihadis are increasingly assertive in the West. It is essential for understanding the current geopolitical landscape and for developing strategies to reform Islam and combat radical terror.

"This collection of essays by some of the world's leading authorities on Islamic social history focuses on the pervasive legal and cultural oppression of non-Muslims in Islamic societies. The authors of these in-depth but accessible articles explode the widely diffused myth, promulgated by Muslim advocacy groups, of a largely tolerant, pluralistic Islam. In fact, the contributors lay bare the tyrannical legal superstructure that has treated non-Muslims in Muslim societies as oppressed and humiliated tributaries, and they show the devastating effects of these discriminatory attitudes and practices in both past and contemporary global conflicts." "This hard-hitting and absorbing assessment of Islamic teachings and practices regarding non-Muslim minorities uncovers a significant human rights scandal that rarely receives any mention either in academic circles or in the mainstream press."--Jacket
