Description
A wonderfully concise biography (Sīrah), and description of his person (Shamā’il). It details the biography of the Prophet ﷺ vividly in the most succinct of ways. The book also contains a description of his physical appearance, character traits, merits and counsel drawn from aspects of his life and character along with a short synopsis of his ever-lasting message.
The immense significance of knowing the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is observed in the Declaration of Faith, for one cannot enter Islam without attesting that, ‘Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah. And one cannot truly attest to that without knowing him ﷺ.
The present work is a translation of the celebrated Arabic text Al-Nafaḥāt al-ʿiṭriyyah fī sīrah khayr al-bariyyah ﷺ (Fragrant Breezes from the Life of Muhammad ﷺ, the Greatest of Creation), authored by the foremost Hadith authority of Greater Syria Shaykh Nur al-Din al-‘Itr.
