Jami’al-Siyar mainly comprises of but is not limited to Seerah sections found in previously authored books by the renowned and highly-revered scholar Shaykh Yusuf Motala (hafizahullah).
This book is unique, as brought together in one place are the fruits of decades of research, a compendium of authentic material and untold days of dedication by a scholar and sage of great merit, covering all aspects of the Prophet’s (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) life – from birth, growing up, Makkan life, trade, marriage, Prophethood, persecution to the momentous Migration to Madinah, which preceded battles, hardships, trekking unchartered territories, domestic life and ultimately his returning to his Lord.
This book is beautifully set out and in list forms where appropriate with full sections dedicated to the foods the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) consumed, the clothing he donned etc. to how he beautifully conducted himself with friend and foe, acquaintance and stranger, believer and non-believer. More importantly, it is a blueprint of how we could implement the lifestyle of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in all walks of life.
Last but not least, a whole section in Arabic is dedicated to thematically selected and fully-referenced ahadeeth featuring the lifestyle of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) – ideal for Imams as a reference point when delivering Friday sermons as for any student of knowledge in general. If this is not enough, what follows is a meticulously set out masnoon du’as section on the topic of seeking refuge in Allah from all trials and tribulations.
A distinct feature of this book is that it’s reliable, authentic and comprehensive with the Prophet’s (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) blessed life at your fingertips!
