The Prophet Muhammad, as the ‘founder’ of Islam and the messenger of Allah’s final revelation to mankind, is the interpreter par excellence of the Qur’an. His Hadith and Sunnah - his sayings and actions - are, after the Noble Qur’an, the most important source of Islamic belief and practice.

For many people, the earthly career of the Prophet seems often ‘too human’ and ‘too engrossed’ in the vicissitudes of the social, economic and political aspects of daily activity to serve as a model for the ideal spiritual life. Because of this, many people who write of the great spiritual guides of humanity can not understand and interpret him without bias. The Prophet  participated in all aspects of social life - he married, had a family, was a father and moreover, was a ruler and a judge. He also had to fight many battles in which he experienced the painful outcomes of war - in essence, he had to experience all the difficulties which human life entails. However within all of these activities, his heart rested in contentment with the Divine and he continued to repose in the Divine Peace. In fact, his participation in social and political life was precisely to integrate this domain into a spiritual centre!

It was the function of the Prophet to be not only a spiritual guide, but also the organizer of a new social order with all that such a function implies and it is precisely this aspect of his being that veils his purely spiritual dimension from foreign eyes.

Outsiders have understood his political genius, his power of oratory, and his great statesmanship, but few have understood how he could be the religious and spiritual guide of humanity and how his life could be emulated by those who aspire proximity to the Almighty Creator. From the Muslim point of view, the Prophet  is the symbol of perfection of both the human person and human society. He is the prototype of the human individual and the human collectivity. As such he bears certain characteristics in the eyes of traditional Muslims which can only be discovered by studying the traditional accounts of him - as seen in this monumental work, Sunan An-Nabi.
