Do we really know what happened in 7th-century Arabia?The early history of Islam is one of the most influential chapters in human history. But what are the sources on which our understanding is based? When were they written? Where do they agree with one another, and where do they fall silent?Witness to the 7th Century presents a historical reconstruction of early Islam based on the Qur'an, Hadith, S¿rah literature, and contemporary non-Muslim sources.This book neither defends nor attacks any religious belief. Its sole purpose is to let the sources speak for themselves, allowing readers to reach their own conclusions.From the trade routes of Mecca to the Hijrah, the Battles of Badr, Uhud, the Trench, and Khaybar, and the emergence of the early Islamic state, this book offers an impartial examination of the available sources, archaeological evidence, and the debates of modern historiography.If you want to understand where history, tradition, and collective memory converge-and where they diverge-this book is for you."When history asks questions, we must have the courage to seek the answers."- Suryavansh
