Seerah: Chronicles of the Prophet ﷺ

Alfiyyah al-Seerah offers a structured and engaging way to study the life of the Prophet ﷺ through a timeless poetic text. Its verses provide an accessible yet rigorous framework for memorizing and retaining the chronological flow of the Seerah—from the pre-Islamic context and early Meccan da‘wah to the establishment of the Madinan community, major battles, treaties, and the final years of the Prophet ﷺ.

By the end of this class, students will be able to:

  • Memorize and recite the major events of the Seerah in order.

  • Understand key themes, turning points, and lessons from the Prophet’s ﷺ life.

  • Identify variations in historical reports and assess their reliability.

  • Apply Seerah lessons to legal, ethical, and spiritual discussions.

  • Strengthen classical Arabic vocabulary, grammar, and literary skills.

  • Connect their learning with the wider tradition of versified Islamic scholarship.

  • Teach and present the Seerah with clarity, accuracy, and confidence.
