Assalamalaykum!
Here is one of the notes i got from the Malaysia IlmFest that I attended few weeks back, which explains the confusing phrase "Islam is a religion of peace" but why most authors elaborate it in a different way. Well actually it not, because....
The non muslims always misinterpreted that Islam is all about war because the way most books written about the sirah; they placed all the battles that the prophet saw and the companions went through in one topic (one battle after another)
Explanation: like any other biographies, ppl crave for the actions/climax and in the sirah, those battles are the actions/climax/important events. Most authors placed it all together in a chapter/book to tell people the details on those battles ie why, when, what happened after, etc. Does not mean it happened it was a non stop, one after another.
It may be short and simple, i tried to make it as clear as i can from what I understand from the lecture held by Sheikh El Mekki.
May it be beneficent to anyone reading it, biidznillah! And Allah swt knows best, jazakallahu khayr!
