"A clear and comprehensive survey of the foundations of Islam according to Islamic tradition, this book vividly illuminates the links between the teachings of the Qur'an and the actions of Muhammad and the behavior of modern-day jihadists and Islamic supremacists. If this book were read and digested in the Pentagon, American policy toward jihad would be a good deal more coherent and effective than it is." - Robert Spencer, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) and The Truth About Muhammad
“With graceful prose, extensive research, and rigorous argument, David Hayden recovers the historical truth of Mohammad’s destruction of the Jews of western Arabia. Sweeping aside the current propaganda that makes Muslims the historical victims of Jewish aggressors, Hayden details the methodically brutal slaughter and plundering of Arabia’s long-established Jewish tribes that marked Mohammad’s rise to power in the 7th century, and that created the template for Islam’s subsequent expansion, including today’s Muslim terrorists and anti-Semites. Anyone who wants to understand the true history behind today’s conflicts in the Middle East should not miss this indispensable guide to Islam’s bloody origins.” - Bruce S. Thornton is a Research Fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution
“David Hayden set out to piece together the jigsaw puzzle of Muslim chronological history from Muhammad’s hegira from Mecca to Medina in 622 to his death in 632 to determine what motivated modern day Islamic jihadists’ justification for murder and terrorism. Hayden’s research enabled him to create a detailed framework for his masterfully crafted and shocking interpretation which not only destroys myths such as Muslim-Jew cooperative existence during the early medieval period; but also indicates which Muslims (today’s 99% majority ‘Islam-as-a-religion-of-peace’ advocates or the estimated 1% Islamic minority jihadists----still a staggering 10,000,000 individuals) interpret their religion correctly. One can only wonder how much this Islamic disagreement was part of the 2011 ‘Arab Spring’ rebellions, and the present day aftermath.” – James F. Paul, professor emeritus of history and philosophy, Kankakee Community College, IL
"Debunking false history and misinterpretations requires first of all thorough and diligent research. David Hayden has based his book, Muhammad and the Birth of Islamic Supremacism: The War With the Jews 622-628 A.D., upon such careful and complete research. His extensive research is combined with a careful and thoughtful analysis. Mr. Hayden has removed the veil that shrouded the founding of Islam by Muhammad. While acknowledging that the overwhelming majority of modern Muslims are peace loving and believe in religious co-existence, David has laid bare the competitive violent crucible in which Islamic faith was born. This led to brutal struggle with all contemporary faiths, particularly Judaism on the Arabian Peninsula. To suggest otherwise is to deny historical reality. The violence of this struggle led to extensive horrific abuses as well as ethnic cleansing and religious persecution. Only by knowing our past both individually and collectively can we understand the present and progress toward a better future. David Hayden’s book is a significant step in this direction. As such it should be welcomed by all."
