The authors pertinently observe, “Just as it hurts us to see him insulted, it would pain him to see us responding in ways insulting to his legacy”. This book is a compilation of seventy incidents in which the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) rose above enmity and insult. This book encourages Muslims to adopt the Prophetic model of mercy and forgiveness, which can certainly ameliorate things, help in reducing Islamophobia, build a dialogue with non-Muslims, and, ultimately, improve the image of Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him), Muslims and Islam. - The Muslim World Book Review
