#156 – Understanding Islam – The life and work of Muhammad 🗓
With Dr Jay Smith
This is the second in a series of three webinars this month on Understanding Islam with renowned Christian apologist Dr Jay Smith.
Muslim tradition teaches that Muhammad was born in Mecca, and then moved to Medina (both in central Arabia) in 622 A.D., and that during this period he received the Qur’an and became the paradigm for the Islamic religion practiced today.
But what do other historical sources reveal? This webinar will evaluate the historical record of Muhammad using evidence from the 7th century and before and comparing it with traditional teaching.
