Salams

Anyone know of a really good biography of the prophet Muhammad (saw) ?
Something moderately informative.

Actually I was wondering if anyone could give me the name of a book/author. I really don't like reading long stuff on the net, it hurts my brain :sl:

In english, and what exactly do you mean what perspective? If you meant by a Muslim or non-Muslim, either is okay. I'd actually like to read from both perspectives. I have a Biography but its quite complex and very long, Looking for something a little more my level (highschool student) :sl:

It is written from a perspective that is non-Muslim, but sympathetic to Islam.

'The Sealed Nectar'
by Sheikh Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarkpuri

You can find online copies to read for free but will cost about £10-£20 in the shops as is quite a think book.

It is by far and away the best Seerah books I have read and will show you a lot about the character and life of Rasoolullah (saws).

Recently finished this book, and Alhamdullilah I found it brilliant. The chapters were well organized and easy to read.
An excellent in-depth look at the prophet's (saw) life and times, I'd recommend it to anyone who has never read his (saw) Biography before.

The Sealed Nectar ( Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum), the one Dawud mentioned. Inshallah I'll take a look at the other one as well.
