The aim of this volume was to present the most memorable of the public and private orations of the prophet Mohammad. Complete with a detailed introduction and insightful notes, this volume will be of utility to students and anyone with an interest in Islam. Contents include: "The Speeches at Mekka", "The Poetic Period", "The Night", "The Country", "The Smiting", "The Quaking", "The Rending Asunder", "The Charges", "Support", "The Backbiter", "The Splendour of Morning", "The Most High", "The Wrapping", "The News", "The Fact", etcetera. Edward William Lane (1801 - 1876) was a British translator, lexicographer, and orientalist. He is most famous his translation of "One Thousand and One Nights". Many antiquarian texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive.
