The Simple Seerah: The Story of Prophet Muhammad (Part 2)

The Simple Seerah – Part Two

The Simple Seerah series recounts the greatest story ever told: the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

After enduring the trials of Prophethood in Part One and narrowly surviving an assassination attempt by the Quraysh, the Prophet ﷺ is left with no choice but to leave his beloved hometown—where he was born, raised, and deeply loved. Accompanied by his closest companion, Abu Bakr, he migrates north in search of a new home.

Thus begins a new chapter in the life of the Prophet ﷺ: the building of a community founded upon fairness, justice, kindness, and the worship of the One true God alone. While he is warmly welcomed by many, others in the city oppose his presence and seek to undermine him at every turn. Meanwhile, the Quraysh remain driven by a single goal—revenge.

For the best reading experience, it is recommended to read The Simple Seerah – Part One before starting this volume.

Having dedicated much of his life to explaining the deeper meanings of the Qur’an to non-Arabic speakers, Ustadh Asim Khan now brings the life of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to readers in a compelling storytelling style. This approach to the Seerah is yet to be experienced in the English language and promises to transport the reader back to the time of the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions.
