This book provides a brief picture of the educational contributions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to human culture and civilisation. It analyzes and demonstrated how his teaching influenced his own people, the Arabs, who within a couple of generations not only became a great political force but also acquired the leadership of the world in every area of human life. His followers became the real educators of humanity and how his teachings have contributed to the scientific achievements in modern Europe.

The contents of this book were later incorporated into the Encyclopaedia of Seerah.
