Qur'anScience
In the barren valley of Makkah, in the Year of the Elephant, an orphan was born who would become a mercy to all the worlds. The first book of The Prophet’s Sirah gathers what is authentic about the lineage, birth and childhood of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ — from the Qur’an, the exegesis of Ibn Kathir and authentic Hadith, with reports from the books of sirah clearly marked. “There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves.”
“There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over you and to the believers is kind and merciful.”
