Why and How Should We Learn Seerah? Muhammed Emin Yıldırım

The blessed life of the Prophet (sas), seerah, holds great significance for a Muslim. Verily, humans who were created to obey/worship Allah (swt) are supposed to learn the ideal form of servitude through the prophets and especially through our last prophet Muhammad (sas). For this reason, the generation of Sahaba (the Companions) who are the first addressee of both the messages of the Qur'an and Sunnah showed great importance to any information related to the world of the Prophet (sas). Further, in the flow of time, they conveyed this fund of knowledge to Tabi'in (the Successors) who are their disciples and the second blessed generation. Similarly, this generation conveyed this fund of knowledge to those who follow them and thereby enabled such a great treasure to reach even our day. Really and truly, the information relevant to the blessed life of the Prophet (sas) reached a considerable extent that cannot be compared to any person or period within history. Now, there are hundreds, even hundreds of thousands of books on that period in our libraries. The studies that belong to the VI. Century in the Gregorian Era, Asr al Saadah (the Age of Bliss), do not solely consist of seerah works that directly narrate the blessed life of the beloved Prophet (sas). Any work that can shed light on our way in terms of understanding the blessed life of the Prophet (sas) more truly and deeply had a link with seerah.
