I wrote my biography of Muhammad, The Truth About Muhammad, nine years ago, but he hasn’t done much of anything since then, and in this age of escalating jihad violence, people are increasingly curious about the man who inspired it all and continues to do so. The Truth About Muhammad has raced back to the top of Amazon’s bestsellers on Muhammad, topping whitewashes by Islamic apologists Karen Armstrong and Tariq Ramadan.
How is Muhammad like the Beatles? Well, the prophet of Islam is no lovable moptop, but he has similar chart appeal: The Truth About Muhammad is taking not just one, but two spots in the top five (paperback edition at number one, kindle at number four). This indicates that people are impatient with the comforting half-truths and deceptions of people like Armstrong and Ramadan, and are looking for information about Muhammad that is more accurate and substantial.
Get your copy of The Truth About Muhammad here (paperback) and here (kindle). Also available in hardcover (here) and audio CD (here).
UPDATE November 24: The Truth About Muhammad is even more Beatlesque today, with its various formats occupying four positions in the top 10:

Robert – please send a copy to Joyce Carol Oates!
Shane says
Send a copy to everyone in the Obama administration, Hillary Clinton, and every member of Congress. I just heard a Dimocrat Congressman say he is more afraid of Christians attacking movie theater’s than Muslim terrorists! There is no hope for these Dimocrats, they must be fired.

This would be a useless to do. There staff would just throw the book out and they would never even know that the book was sent.

Much more effective than any mail is to call your senator or rep, and if they are not available to speak directly with you, ask for the senator’s staff person who handles foreign policy, terrorism, or whatever area is relevant to your concern. Have ready a clear, concise, polite, message for which you cite evidence that the staff member can check to see if it’s a balanced and accurate account that can sway many, rather than a crackpot thing.
Actually to have influence on this issue, maybe the best is to join and support Spencer and Geller’s AFDI, and Brigitte Gabriel’s Act for America. Gabriel’s group continually lobbies Congress on our issues.

Send a copy to everyone in the Obama administration, Hillary Clinton…
Remember early in his presidency when Prez Barack Hussein sent a Saul Alinsky “how to” package to the nation’s public schools? I was aghast; old Saul is one of the greatest scumbags in the nation’s history, openly disloyal to freedom on behalf of communism. I’ve always wondered what the public school teachers did with those packages.
Peter Charles says
The smart ones used it for toilet paper.
Pig Jizya says
Congratulations Robert!
Your scholarly and highly accurate works need to be widely read to combat the propaganda put out by the left, which thankfully are increasingly being rejected by the public.
I hope the climate drastically changes (vis-a-vis honesty in jornalism) when the Muslim apologist (Obama) gets out of office. The type of trash being put out by the terrorist group CAIR and the left is disgusting.
Don McKellar says
It’s incredible that, at this time in history, a factual book like yours appears right beside a book with the title: Muhammad: A Prophet For Our Time. Only a moslem or somebody who is certifiably insane would write a book like that. That screen shot is truly a snap shot of our times: sanity next to madness.
Stephen Golay says
Still say that the guy who wrote “Did Muhammad Exist?” tops them all!
dsinc says
My copy, the first book I bought on Islam, I received back in the days when it was still safe to have books posted to South Africa, and have a reasonable chance of receiving them. Not today I’m afraid as the Post Office is totally useless. Books on Islam are verboten here. Checking availability of a list of recommended books on Islam at top bookshops here yields a big zero. Several friends have read “The truth about Muhammad” and all been shocked by the barbarity at the core of Islam.
Mo says
That is encouraging news! Word is getting out. People are waking up. Let’s hope it’s not too little, too late!
Tom says
I’m so proud of you Robert! I’m going to be watching the Alexa data for JihadWatch over the coming weeks, as more and more people wake up and sign up to the counter-Jihad, for which you are the intellectual leader.
Angemon says
Congratulations, Mr. Spencer 🙂
Davegreybeard says
Congratulations and thank you for all you do, Robert.
I have “The Truth about Muhammad” in my book shelf, between the “Sirat Rasul Allah” and the “Reliance of the Traveller.”
I find that I refer to all three on a regular basis these days.
R says
Awesome. Good job, Robert.
epistemology says
Congrats Robert! That’s great news. the truth will prevail.
Paul Singh says
Configurations to Robert and keep up with the good work
gravenimage says
Bravo, Robert! The truth is getting out!
BKop says
For years, your book, The Truth About Muhammad, was required reading for my
Humanities class in Controversial Issues. Years after they read it, students thanked
me for the essential information they gained about Islam.
Vivienne Havalant (Leijonhufvud) says
Karen Armstrong is an Islamic sympathiser, in her own book she romanticises ISLAM. Wouldn’t surprise if she weren’t a covert Moslemah. Ex Nun what can one expect?
sidney penny says
Hip Hip Hooray!
What is it about Mr Robert Spencer?
He is factual, honest, informative, and logical, does not practice hypocrisy or double standards,a true scholar,unlike the one we find inn our universities..
He writes well written and often it is irrefutable because he is factually and logically correct.
He lays out the core issues clearly .
He is not fooled because he know his subject inside out.
Does anyone want to add to this to make Robert’s head bigger.
I enjoyed this lecture -watch the last 10 minutes if not the whole thing.

” The 3rd Choice ” by Mark Durie [and his utube postings] contain excellent information about all aspects of Islam … I highly recommend them as does Robert Spencer who writes a very favourable commentary on it .
The awful truth says
Congratulations. Now could you reveal how many people are tuning into Jihad Watch and how this has been expanding recently? I got my copy a long time ago … most British highwaymen were often popular with the ladies and I expect prophet highwayman similarly liked fine clothes and showering his ladies with stolen jewels he got from the infidel – though he also stole women from others. How this guy is treated as a saint is a question for psychoanalysts.
bullfrogger says
The truth may get drowned out now and then but it always, somehow survives our best attempts to hide or alter it.
Noel Jealous says
How is “The Truth About Mohammed” $10-63 on Amazon.com and £11-11 on Amazon.co.uk?
Fahad says
Non Muslims writing books about Islam and prophet Muhammed… Joke of the century and wouldn’t be surprised if Obama writes about food science in the future….
