The Life of Muhammad- A Translation of Ibn Ishaq´s Sirat Rasul

Ibn Ishaq: 704 - 767 was a Muslim historian, who edited on of the first complete renderings of the life of Prophet Muhammad. The original version of the Ibn Ishaq seerah has been lost, and the only version presently know is done by Ibn Hisham who died in 828 or 833. This lifestory of Prophet Muhammad is an extremely important source to understand the view that the Muslims have on their prophet, and which was developed in the 1700's. The full book is here in the translation of A. Guillaume.
