Saheeh Seerah Al Albaanee English

That is until Allaah تباركُوُ‏ تعاىل destined the noble Shaikh and the Imaam of Ḥadeeth of our
age, Shaikh Muḥammad Naaser-ud-Deen al-Albaanee ‏,رمحهُاهلل who undertook the task of
separating the authentic Seerah from the inauthentic.
What led the Shaikh to undertake this task was that he had traveled from Beirut
‏”خامتُالنبيني“‏ entitled: (Lebanon) to Sharjah (UAE) where he came across a book on Seerah,
by Muḥammad Abu Zahrah and he saw the calamities it was filled with. So he engaged
himself in the service of (compiling the authentic) Seerah of the Prophet ‏,ﷺ and
Allaah تعاىل expanded his breast to work on the book ‏”السريةُالنبوية“‏ of al-Ḥaafiẓh Ibn Katheer
work: and to separate the authentic from the unauthentic; and he named his رمحه ‏ُاهلل
“Ṣaḥeeḥ Seeratin-Nabawiyyah”: What is authentic from the Biography ‏,”صحيحُا لسريةُالنبوية “
of the Messenger of Allaah ‏,ﷺ mentioning the chronological account of events, and
his military expeditions”, and he made many important corrections on the work of
رمحه ‏ُاهلل Imaam Ibn Katheer. But it was the Decree of Allaah that Shaikh al-Albaanee
passed away before he could complete this work, and he could only reach the chapter
of “al-Israa’ wal-Me`raaj”. May Allaah have mercy on Shaikh al-Albaanee for his efforts
and elevate his status and raise him in the company of those on whom Allaah has
bestowed His grace, (in the company) of the Prophets, the Siddeeqeen, the martyrs,
and the righteous.
What will proceed is the translation from the work of Shaikh al-Albaanee in presenting
‏.ﷺ to the dear readers the authentic Seerah of the Messenger of Allaah
The Methodology of this book:
This book does not deal with narrating a story-based description of the events which
other books of Seerah (biographies) and Qasas (stories) had employed, i.e. by making
additions to make the story more interesting and for entertainment. Rather, this book
is a narration-based description of the events; relying on narrations which are found in
the books of Aḥaadeeth.
It may not interest those who are used to storybooks, but for a student of knowledge,
this is an opportunity to learn and differentiate between the authentic and unauthentic
narrations in the books of Seerah; as well as to learn the grading of some of the
‏.رمحهُاهلل Aḥaadeeth which are not found in the other books of Shaikh al-Albaanee
