Requests:  0 Summary:  "[This book] offers a distinct and nuanced take on the life and teachings of the prophet Muhammad, using a traditional genre of Islamic literature called the forty hadiths collection. Hadiths are the reported sayings and actions of Muhammad that have been collected by the tens of thousands throughout Islamic history. There is a tradition in which Muslim scholars take from this vast textual ocean to compile their own smaller collections of forty hadiths, an act of curation that allows them to present their particular understanding of Muhammad's legacy and the essential points of Islam. Here, Michael Muhammad Knight offers forty narrations that provide windows into the diverse ways in which Muslims envision Muhammad. He also examines his own relationship to Muslim traditions while exploring such topics as law, mysticism, sectarianism, gender, and sexuality."--Page 4 of cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 297.63 Kn Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 297.63 Kn Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 297.63 Kn Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 297.63 Kn Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 297.63 Kn Checked In Add Copy to MyList
