Biografisk notat
Rebecca R. Williams is Assistant Professor in the Department of History at the University of South Alabama. Her research interests include: Islamic historiography, the biography of the Prophet Muhammad, and Qur'ān exegesis.<p>"Williams is to be congratulated for drawing attention to the so far neglected Ibn Kathīr, and her book nicely complements the recent work of Younus Mirza (2013 and 2014). One interesting point Williams highlights is Ibn Kathīr’s failure to comply with the Taymiyyan exegetical method he sets out to embrace."</p><p><strong>Caterina Bori</strong>, <em>Università di Bologna, Islam and Christian–Muslim Relations</em></p>
Muhammad and the Supernatural: Medieval Arab Views examines the element of the supernatural (or miracle stories) in the life of the Prophet Muhammad as depicted in two genres: prophetic biography (sīra) and Qur'ān exegesis (tafsīr).
