The Biography of Prophet (4 volume set) by Ibn Hisham السيرة النبوية لأبن هشام-Arabic

Life of the Prophet ﷺ – Sirah Ibn Hisham (4 Volume Set) is a comprehensive Arabic biography of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ based on the earliest historical sources. Compiled by Abd al-Malik ibn Hisham, this monumental set traces the life of the Prophet ﷺ from his birth and early upbringing, through the first revelations of the Qur’an, the trials of the Makkan period, the migration (Hijrah) to Madinah, his leadership, major expeditions, treaties, and the final years of his mission. Ibn Hisham’s work is recognized as the definitive recension of the original Sirah of Ibn Ishaq, carefully edited to remove weak narrations and extraneous material while preserving authenticity. For students and scholars of Islamic history, this four-volume set remains one of the most authoritative and enduring resources on the life and teachings of the Prophet ﷺ in classical Islamic literature.

From Author:

The biography is compiled by Abd al-Malik Ibn Hisham (d. 218 AH), one of the earliest and most respected historians of the Arabic language and Islamic tradition. Drawing on the earlier work of Ibn Ishaq, Ibn Hisham arranged, refined, and edited the material to present a coherent, reliable, and widely trusted account of the Prophet’s ﷺ life — omitting weak or irrelevant reports and clarifying challenging narratives. His version has become the principal conduit through which Ibn Ishaq’s original biography has been preserved and transmitted to later generations.
