Understanding Muslim Teachings and Traditions

Description:

The traditions (Hadith) of Islam is a record of the words and deeds of Muhammad that overwhelmingly affects Muslim actions, morals, and attitudes. Though only a minority of Muslims have ever directly encountered a book of Hadith, the information is filtered through Islamic teachers and oral tradition. In this unique book, Phil Parshall explores and explains the Hadith's teachings on such issues as salvation, prayer, jihad and violence, women, and Jesus. He bases his book on the research of Abu 'Abd Allah Muhammad Al-Bukhari, which is universally regarded as the most authoritative collection of Traditions. Understanding Muslim Teachings and Traditions highlights the essence of this highly significant body of Muslim literature and will lead you to a greater awareness of Muhammad's influence in the lives of one billion people. - Back cover.
