About This Set

The Noble Life of the Prophet is a 3-volume biography of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). It records the events of his life from the period before his birth up to his death.

The book does more than list events. It draws out the lessons in them, explains the wisdom behind the Prophet's actions, notes Islamic rulings derived from particular incidents, and discusses how each event should shape a Muslim's character and choices. The introduction makes the case that every Muslim, whatever their role, benefits from studying the Seerah.
