Shaikh Salih Al-Fawzan | Authentic Statements
The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy upon him) said “Ponder-may Allah have mercy upon you- upon six events from the Prophetic history (sirah) and understand them in an excellent manner.
What is intended by the term sirah is the history of the Messenger (May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and this is the path that the Messenger (May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to traverse upon from the time he was dispatched (as a Prophet) until Allah caused him to die, in terms of worship, social interactons, da’wah to Allah the Mighty and Majestic, jihad, hijrah and teaching. All of his actions, statements, and interactions make up his seerah (May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), This affair-the history of the Messenger (May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)-is important for the Muslim to study so that one may follow his example. This is because Allah The Majestic and Most High has made him an example for us.
