Al Balagh Academy invites you to embark on a transformative journey through the life of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the Mercy to Mankind. Our meticulously designed online course provides a comprehensive exploration of Al Seerah al Nabawiyyah, drawing from the classical and authentic sources of Seerah Ibn Hisham.

It is an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of the Prophet, to experience his life through the lens of authentic Seerah, and to deepen your connection with the Prophet and his message.
The course covers a wide array of topics, from the Prophet’s early life and his prophethood to his leadership in Madinah and his lasting legacy. It delves into the Prophet’s interactions with both Muslims and non-Muslims, his treatment of women, his approach to war, and his personal character and morality.
The course also addresses contemporary challenges and critiques, providing students with the knowledge and tools to uphold the honor of the Prophet in today’s world. As you journey through the course, you will traverse the sands of Makkah, stand on the battlefield of Badr, feel the tranquility of Madinah, and witness the Prophet’s enduring legacy.
