Title: Biography of the Prophet Muhammad through the book of true Ibn Hibban historical study
Abstract: Studying Al-sīra al-Nabawiyya ( The Prophetic biography) is essential in order to understand the Islamic history, especially the knowledge of his invasions, task forces, qualities, and his relations with the different stratum of the society. The Qur’an as well as Al-Hadeeth books have mentioned many of the qualities, merits and invasions of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), in addition to other influential events through his life. Other details about the different religious, political, social, and economical affairs are mentioned there also. This research deals with first: the biography of Ibn Habban , second: the biography of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) during the Makki era, and third: the biography of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) during the Madani era. The study has revealed that Ibn Habban is one of the propagandists in the classification of the Hadith and the science of wound and modification (al jarh wal ta'deel science). Ibn Habban described the life of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) before the Islamic Mission, as a period of physical preparation and adaptation to help him carry the mission. He mentioned that Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) did not find a secure place in Makkah, seeking a more secured place, which he found in Yathrib region, after meeting the tribes' leaders in many occasions. He also explained how the supporters show their solidarity and consolation to the immigrants, when they shared their properties to ease their financial crisis after fleeing Makkah. Ibn Habban had also explained the life of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in his house and his relations with his wives, the political and military life and the Prophet's commandments to the leaders, urging them to adhere the principles of Islam. Finally he mentioned the signing of Al Hudaybiyah reconciliation with Quraysh, Makkah conquest and the disassembling of the idols.
