Omid Safi is professor of Islamic Studies at UNC-Chapel Hill. He believes the Prophet Muhammad is the most misunderstood figure of the world’s major religions. His new book, “Memories of Muhammad: Why the Prophet Matters,” (HarperCollins/2009) aims to make the founder of Islam more accessible to both Muslims and non-Muslims alike. He joins host Frank Stasio for a conversation about Muhammad’s political and spiritual life, the origins of Islam and Western perceptions of the faith.
