The Radiant Lamp should serve as a Seerah-inspired textbook for Islamic full-time or weekend schools. It's unique and engaging, and it invites critical thinking. Moreover, it seeks to reconnect the youth with the Prophet Muhammad's life (Seerah) in the age of heightened Islamophobia and mounting challenges to faith and spirituality. This book presents the Prophet's Seerah and Islam not as ancient history frozen in seventh-century Arabia but as timeless guidance for humanity. Like any religious minority in America, Muslims sometimes encounter intolerance. In the face of Islamophobia and hatred from fringe groups, it's easy to feel helpless and adrift—especially if you're young and still learning about your faith. The life of the Prophet Muhammad offers an anchor and a guide for young Muslims navigating these challenges. The Prophet preached moderation in all spheres of life. He was an activist and a reformer who, in 23 years, transformed his primitive society into the world's most progressive at the time. The reader will recognize that a reformer (mūsleh) is better than a pious (sāleh) Muslim from the Prophet's examples. His teachings should help young Muslims become socially responsible and benevolent citizens. Ekram Haque is also the author of a biography of the Prophet, entitled Muhammad: Son of Abraham, Brother of Moses, Successor of Jesus, and Powered by Hope, Positivity, and Optimism.
