Fiqh Us Seerah

di Muhammad Al-Ghazali (Autore)

Qadeem Press, 2025

A masterwork of prophetic biography that transcends conventional historical narrative to present the life of Prophet Muhammad ? as a living model for Islamic practice and governance. Written by the renowned Egyptian scholar Muhammad Al-Ghazali, this comprehensive study examines the Prophet's life through the lens of fiqh (jurisprudence), demonstrating how events from the sirah inform Islamic law, ethics, and social organization. Al-Ghazali employs a distinctive methodological approach that synthesizes classical Arabic historiography with modern analytical techniques, creating a cohesive narrative that illuminates both the historical events and their enduring legal and spiritual significance. Rather than presenting disconnected anecdotes, the author weaves together authenticated hadith reports, Quranic exegesis, and historical analysis to reveal the systematic development of Islamic civilization from its inception in pre-Islamic Arabia through the establishment of the Madinah state. The work addresses nine major phases of the prophetic mission: the state of pre-Islamic civilizations and the universal need for divine guidance; the Prophet's birth, childhood, and preparation for prophethood; the struggle to establish monotheism in Makkah; the mass migration to Madinah and its causes; the foundations of the new Muslim society; the defensive military campaigns; the expansion phase following the Treaty of Hudaybiyah; the Prophet's marriages and their legal implications; and the final days and death of the Messenger. Al-Ghazali's treatment distinguishes itself through several scholarly contributions. He rigorously examines hadith authenticity using principles established by classical scholars while also evaluating narrations against the Quran's overarching framework and established Islamic legal principles. He provides historical context for the revelation of Quranic verses, demonstrating the organic relationship between divine revelation and lived experience. Most significantly, he challenges Muslims to move beyond mere commemoration toward active implementation of prophetic teachings in contemporary life. This edition includes critical hadith verification by Sheikh Muhammad Nasiruddin Al-Albani, one of the twentieth century's most respected hadith authorities. His annotations identify the authentication status of narrations, providing readers with scholarly grounding for the historical claims presented. The author confronts several persistent misconceptions about Islamic history, including fabricated stories that have infiltrated the sirah literature. He applies rigorous source criticism to separate authentic accounts from later accretions, particularly regarding controversial episodes that contradict established Islamic principles. His analysis demonstrates that apparent contradictions in hadith literature often reflect incomplete transmission or misunderstanding of context rather than actual inconsistencies in the Prophet's conduct. Al-Ghazali writes with the conviction that the Prophet's biography is not entertainment for the spiritually passive but rather a comprehensive manual for those seeking to embody Islamic values in their personal conduct, family life, social relations, and political engagement. He emphasizes that Muslims' relationship with the Prophet must be grounded in following his example rather than in empty ritualism or excessive emotional devotion divorced from behavioral transformation. The work serves multiple audiences: students of Islamic studies seeking a systematic understanding of prophetic biography; Muslims desiring to deepen their connection to the Prophet through knowledge rather than sentimentalism; scholars interested in the intersection of history, law, and theology in Islamic tradition; and general readers curious about the foundations of Islamic civilization and the life of one of history's most influential figures. Throughout the text, Al-Ghazali maintains scholarly objectivity while
