Publisher's summary
The immense significance of knowing the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is observed in the Declaration of Faith, for one cannot enter Islam without attesting that, 'Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah.' And one cannot truly attest to that without knowing who Muhammad ﷺ was. Nor can one accurately comprehend the Qur'an, for his life was the context of Revelation; and one cannot claim to sincerely love him ﷺ without knowing his life and description, just as one cannot love one who he does not know.
The present work is a translation of the celebrated Arabic text al-Nafahat al-Itriyyah fi Sirah Khayr al-Bariyyah [Fragrant Breezes from the Life of Muhammad ﷺ the Greatest of Creation], authored by the foremost Hadith authority of Greater Syria Shaykh Nur al-Din al-'Itr. A concise biography of the Prophet ﷺ the book also provides a succinct and vivid description of his physical appearance, character traits, merits and counsel drawn from aspects of his life and character.
