An address delivered in 1989 in the UK by the Head of the Worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim community providing an insight into the character of Muhammad, the Holy Prophet of Islam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

It highlights the salient characteristics of the Holy Prophet of Islam aptly described in the Holy Qur’an as the Seal of the Prophets. Replete with the views about Muhammad from both Orientalists and Western writers, the author reviews the Holy Prophet’s life, analyses his views on justice and racism, the Prophet’s treatment of animals and provides a mature Islamic viewpoint on the controversy over blasphemy, a topical issue in 1989 and today.

This is a unique lecture by a speaker whose narration of the life of the Holy Prophet was already renowned within the Muslim community and this brief introduction has set unassailable standards. No man feels so much affection for his mentor the way the speaker does and none can do better justice than him in providing an exciting insight to a personality that changed the entire course of history.
