I am excited to launch my speaking tour for “People of the Book - Prophet Muhammad’s Encounters with Christians,” my newest book. The first stop is Salt Lake City, Utah, where I will be speaking at the Utah Islamic Center, the First Baptist Church, BYU, & UVU on Friday Oct. 22nd.
Prophet Muhammad’s covenant with the Christians of Najran is key. He agreed to protect their land, livelihood, & property, & made it clear that he’d assist them in their social & economic progress. Muhammad became an ally of the Christians, just as King Ibn Abjar of Christian Abyssinia became an ally to the Believers/Muslims during the first Hijra in 615. This is an excerpt from Chapter 5 (“Guests & Hosts”) of “People of the Book - Prophet Muhammad’s Encounters with Christians,” my latest book.
