Description
About The Book
Great historical personalities are inevitably popular subjects for biography and cursory glance at a list of biographies composed about the Prophet Muhammad SAW will confirm him, by universal consensus, as the greatest personality of all time. One whom model Muslims today are commanded to follow and obey.
While other biographical literature varies in regards of authorship, authenticity, length, breadth of detail and historical, cultural and religious perspective, this work attempts to assimilate the most beneficial aspects of all these features.
Both concise and comprehensive, it relies heavily on rigorously authenticated (sahih) and fully referenced sources, and is brimming with knowledge that 'delights the soul and adorns the pages'.
Its Arabic edition has consequently achieved the deserved status of an indispensable manual for both the adept and budding student of knowledge. We pray that this English version will prove equally beneficial.
About the Contributor(s)
About the author
Abul-Fath Muhammad an-Nas: Imam Abu'l-Fath Muhammad ibn Muhammad, widely known as Ibn Sayyid al-Nas rahimahullah (671-734 AH / 1273-1334 CE), was one of the distinguished hadith scholars and literary figures of medieval Egypt. He dedicated his scholarly life to mastering the many disciplines associated with hadith literature and the Arabic language, excelling across multiple fields of Islamic learning. His stature was attested by Imam al-Dhahabi, who remarked: 'Rarely does one set eyes on his like in terms of his understanding and learning.' His most celebrated and enduring work is 'Uyun al-Athar fi Funun al-Maghazi wa'l-Shama'il wa'l-Siyar, a comprehensive and authoritative biographical study of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The book published as TP036, 'Nur al-'Uyun fi Talkhis Sirat al-Amin al-Ma'mun,' is a succinct edited version of this larger work. Ibn Sayyid al-Nas passed away in 734 AH/1334 CE, leaving behind a lasting contribution to the literature of prophetic biography.
