"Leadership Lessons From The Life of Rasoolullah" Summary of the book: There is a distinct difference between how one whose core faith is that Muhammad (Peace be upon him) was the Messenger of Allah and how someone who does not hold this belief, writes about him. This book, however, is not simply an analysis of history. It is a labor of love and reverence while being analytical and objective. It is an attempt by Mirza Yawar Baig, the author, who not only believes that Muhammad (Peace be upon him) was the best leader that ever existed but who believes in him and his message and wants to share it. The life of Muhammad (Peace be upon him) the Messenger of Allah is rich and full of lessons. It has been so well documented and so much has been written about his life over the centuries that another attempt is almost unnecessary. However, the author decided to write this for two reasons: to make the lessons from the life of Rasoolullah (Peace be upon him) relating specifically to leadership easily accessible to the seeker, whether Muslim or not; and to make an attempt to see how these lessons are applicable today in a world that is in principle, very similar to the world he lived in. The author’s premise is this: Since he was able to change his world and take his people from being the most insignificant, oppressed and weakest to becoming the predominant, admired and strongest in just one generation; if we learn how he was able to do it, we will be able to learn how to succeed in our world today. ” Leadership Lessons: From the Life of Rasoolullah “
