This second volume of Ibn Kathir’s Al-Sira al-Nabawiyya continues the detailed and authentic biography of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Covering the middle period of the Prophet's mission, it examines the trials and tribulations he faced, including the persecution of Muslims in Mecca, the migration to Abyssinia, and the eventual Hijra to Medina.
This volume highlights the Prophet's efforts to establish a just society in Medina, his leadership in building alliances, and the challenges faced during the early battles such as Badr and Uhud. Ibn Kathir provides a meticulous account, blending Qur’anic verses, Hadith, and historical traditions to give readers an in-depth understanding of the Prophet’s life and the nascent Islamic community.
