The Maghazi of Sayyidina Muḥammad: the earliest known biography of the Messenger of Allah (s).
This text is the first English translation of The Maghazi of Sayyiduna Muhammad ﷺ, the earliest biography of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ currently known to exist. An eminent scholar of the generation of the Tabi'in, Mūsā ibn ʿUqbah ranks as one of the first individuals to compile reports specifically related to the sīrah, the biography of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. More significant, however, is the fact that his Maghazi (Expeditions) was acclaimed by his contemporaries, such as Imam Malik ibn Anas, as the most authentic work of its genre. In the years that followed, The Maghazi of Sayyiduna Muhammad ﷺ served as an authoritative source for many later works on the life of Allah's Messenger ﷺ
