The Road to Makkah

Muhammad Asad (Leopold Weiss born on 2 July 1900 to a Jewish family in Lemberg, died in 1997) was a Jewish-born Austro-Hungarian born journalist, traveler, writer, linguist, thinker, political theorist, diplomat and Islamic scholar. Asad was one of the most influential European Muslims of the 20th century. This book is one of the best books of adventure in wilderness of Arabia 70 years ago, and many other places, elegant, it is a part of his biography, reads like a fiction, and rich of information about so many ideas and places. Asad is the father of Talal Asad.

Ordered a used library book from better world books and the book’s condition was exactly as stated. Highly recommended.

Excellent book but poor writing.

Good read.

A good book, but not every one's cup of tea. The book covers the life and journey of the author towards Islam. How, when and where he met the legends of his time. Very interesting book.

Amazing qaulith of the hardcover, pages, printing!!! Execellnt overall

This is, hands down, one of the best books i've read this year. It was well written, i lived vicariously throuhh him and i thoroughly enjoyed this book. I don't even lend my copy out to friends in fear of not receiving it back

A must read, well written, amazing descriptive writing, grips you all the way. Amazing pearls of wisdom by a man who had a conscience. May Allah, the Lord of the Worlds accept his noble effort in explaining Islam in a simple way through his travels.
