About the Book

These powerful and evocative stories, which will delight and inspire both Muslims and non-Muslims, focus primarily on the compassion and forgiveness which God extends to humans and asks humans to extend to each other. Two of the stories cleverly approach events in the Holy Prophet's lifetime from entirely different perspectives -- with the author being mindful not to attribute to the Prophet anything not found in the most reliable ancient sources -- while the third story has a modern setting, a mystical approach and a surprising twist. These beautifully written short stories can be devoured quickly and will leave you with a pleasant after-taste.
About the Author: Dr Joel Hayward is a New Zealand-born scholar, author and poet. As of 1 January 2012, he is currently a Senior Fellow at the Markfield Institute of Higher Education. His career highlights include having been the Dean of the Royal Air Force College for five years, a Director of the Royal Air Force Centre for Air Power Studies for four years, and the Head of King's College London's Air Power Studies Division for six years. Dr Hayward's own teaching focus is nowadays on international politics, Just War and the ethics and ecological impact of modern conflict. He also researches and lectures on the Islamic laws and ethics of security. He is interested in both the influence of conflict on Islam and the influence of Islam on conflict. He is the author or editor of nine books as well as many book chapters and journal articles, some of which have appeared in German, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish and Serbian translations. He is currently writing a new book for Kube Publishers to be titled "Prophet and Warrior: The Conduct and Justice of Muhammad's Military Campaigns." In January 2012, the prestigious Royal Islamic Strategic Studies Centre in Amman, Jordan (affiliated with the highly respected and influential Royal Aal al-Bayt Institute for Islamic Thought), published his new monograph, "Warfare in the Qur'an". He has lectured and provided specialist advice widely throughout Europe, Asia and beyond on various defence, security and ethics topics. Unusually for a social scientist, he is also very active in the literary arts. He has had much poetry and fiction published, including a book of short stories and two collections of poetry. They have garnered strong reviews. His poems have appeared in many literary and community magazines and journals, including Damazine, Contemporary World Literature, Al Mu'min, Spin, Fresh, The Invitation, Southern Ocean Review, Chaff, Nineteen-O-Splash, The Mozzie and Valley Micropress. His second major poetry collection, "Splitting the Moon: A Collection of Islamic Poetry", has just been published by Kube Publishers. He maintains a small website at http: //www.joelhayward.org
