He is now two oceans away from his ordinary life in Pakistan. As Mohammad makes his way through immigration and then on to a plane destined for Dallas, Texas, he realizes his life will never be the same again.

"Mohammad Mohabbat chronicles his harrowing and inspiring life story in an attempt to spread peace, insight, and unity among humans. From his secret birth in a deserted military barracks in primitive 1940s Afghanistan, to becoming the first Afghan foreign exchange student to the U.S. at the age of 16, Mohammad found his moral ground early in life. After a year in the States, he returned to his homeland. When the Soviet tanks rolled into the streets of Kabul, Mohammad stood against their critical swipes at the U.S. ... Taken for an American spy because of his vocal protection of a country that was not even his, Mohammad endured imprisonment and ... torture. After a narrow ... escape from certain execution, with wife and small children in tow, Mohammad made it back to the U.S. Putting his engineering degree to use, he created a comfortable life... Mohammad had finally achieved the American dream...until the fateful day of September 11, 2001. Friends, colleagues and even neighbors turned against him overnight, because of his Afghan and Muslim heritage. These events eventually forced him to change his very identity in order to regain a foothold in his community."--P. [4] of cover.

"An accessible biography of Muhammad, Islam’s founding prophet, tracing his development from orphan to political leader and providing insights into his personal life and tastes." —New York Times Book Review "A joyous read, presenting the Prophet Muhammad both as human and humane. Insightful, thoughtful and thought provoking! " —Azar Nafisi, New York Times bestselling author of Reading Lolita in Tehran “A beautifully written, immaculately researched meditation on the impact of the Prophet Muhammad on the modern world. I loved this book!” —Reza Aslan, author of No God but God and Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth A six-year-old cries in his mother’s arms as she draws her last breaths to urge him: “Muhammad, be a world-changer!” The boy, suddenly orphaned in a tribal society that fears any change, must overcome enormous obstacles to unleash his own potential and inspire others to do the same. Fusing details long known to Muslim scholars but inaccessible to popular audiences, Mohamad Jebara brings to life the gripping personal story of Islam’s founding prophet. From his dramatic birth to nearly being abducted into slavery to escaping assassination, Muhammad emerges as an unrelenting man on a mission. Surrounding the protagonist are dynamic women who nurture Muhammad; Jewish and Christian mentors who inspire him; and the enslaved individuals he helps liberate who propel his movement. Jebara places Muhammad’s life in a broader historical context, vividly evoking the Meccan society he was born into and arguing that his innovative vision helped shape our modern world.

One of the most recognisable, respected and inspirational men on earth, Muhammad Ali is the world's most famous boxing hero. Ali brought unprecedented speed and grace to the sport, and his charm and wit changed forever what the world expects of a champion athlete. In the words of over two hundred of Ali's family members, associates, opponents, friends and enemies, this comprehensive and honest portrait relates his legendary sporting accomplishments, as well as the high drama of life outside the boxing ring. From Olympic gold in Rome, to stunning victory over George Foreman in Zaire, every historic victory and defeat of Ali's career is covered. His controversial embrace of the Nation of Islam - with the renunciation of his 'slave name', Cassius Clay - and the historic refusal to be inducted into the US Army makes for compelling reading. Ali became America's first national conscientious objector, and with a willingness to stage his fights in Third World locales, he continued his advocacy for people in need which was honoured in 2000 when he became a United Nations Messenger of Peace. Charismatic, dedicated and a skilful self-publicist, Ali is the living embodiment of the American Dream. This is the biography to match his achievements.
