This book is about the lives of those noble Companions and Commanders who led the Islamic forces in the violent and strife-tom arenas of conflict against the Kuffar (disbelievers). They struck terror in the hearts of the enemy and the strong forts and palaces of Caesar and Chosroes trembled before their might. However, in this compilation, there are not only the stories of the battlefields but also the stories of bravery and courage, valor and piety, austerity and simplicity. These stories describe the true circumstances that led the Muslims to fight more powerful enemies than they were at that time.

During the early modern times (roughly the so-called Renaissance Period) (began late 15th century), Western Christendom attained much higher levels of power and sophistication including militarily. Its medieval crusading fervour had hardly abated, though. In the vast conflict which opposed Islam and Christendom by land and sea, some territories in particular: North Africa and the Holy Sites of Makkah and Madinah became particularly threatened.It was at this particular junction that arose a number of Muslim army leaders of incomparable stature: Kheir Eddin Barbarossa, Selim I, and Sultan Abd al Malek are amongst such figures. To them and others this volume is dedicated.

The Sole Objective Of This Book Prophet Muhammad And His Companions Is To Focus On The Life And Mission Of Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) And His Fiftynine Companions Who Devoted Their Lives In Protection And Propagation Of Islam. This Book Has Been Classified Into Two Parts: First Part Deals With Prophet S Life And Mission; Second Part Throws Light On The Services Of His Devoted Companions. Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) Set A Noble Example Of Practicing All That He Taught To Others. When His Wife, Aishah, Was Asked By A Companion About The Prophet S (Pbuh) Daily Conduct, Aishah Replied That The Conduct Of The Prophet Was The Qur Ân Which Is The Guidance From Allâh And Muhammad (Pbuh) Was Given Authority By Allâh To Interpret It. That Is Why His Conduct Was The Exemplary Of Human Conduct.

Military Management of the Battles of Prophet (s) provides in-depth account of Military Leadership of Prophet Muhammad (s) - an entirely new aspect of his life commonly unknown. Besides being divinely guided leader and intelligent military commander par excellence who used novel and innovative military techniques and tactics at that time, Prophet Muhammad (s) exhibited utmost mercy and compassion to the civilians on enemy side, injured and disabled enemy soldiers and prisoners of war. The level of humanity displayed by the Prophet (s) and his army is unparalleled in the history of mankind. The soldiers were also ordered by the Prophet not to burn trees and crops, harm anaimals and damage property. The author, Muhammad Dhahir Watr provides thorough and well-referenced description of various aspects of the military warfare of Arabs before Islam, the background and reasons for which Prophetic battles were fought, qualities of a military commander in Islam, principles, rules and practice of different types of warfare including defensive, sudden, revolutionary, preemptive, offensive, and psychological warfare used by Prophet Muhammad (s). Structure and functioning of different military departments established by the Prophet (s) such as planning, operations, training, armament, consultation, munitions and relief support, booty, medical services, spiritual guidance and intelligence and security is mentioned in detail. In addition, the role of women in war is also mentioned. This book scholastically refutes the commonly propagated myth that Islam was propagated on the basis of sword.
