This is the Seerah hub: a journey through the life, character, mission and legacy of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, grounded in authentic sources.

The narrative history here is drawn from the classical biographies, Ibn Hisham's edition of Ibn Ishaq, and Ibn Kathir's great history, with events and sayings referenced to the authentic hadith collections wherever a specific report is quoted. Dates before the Hijrah are approximate, and scholars differ on some by a year or two. Where reports are weak, or dates differ, the text says so.

The path is organised into eight modules: before prophethood; the early revelation; the Makkah years; the Hijrah; Madinah; the major turning points; the final years; and the Prophet's legacy. Each module links to its lesson, its events on the timeline, the Companions named in it, and the references it cites.

Below the path you will find a timeline of key events, from his birth in Makkah to his passing in Madinah; a section on his character, covering ten aspects such as mercy, justice, humility and generosity, each with a verse or an authentic hadith; and short introductions to Companions who carried the message.

The seven lessons each have their own narration. When you are ready, test what you have learned in the Seerah Lab.
