The present article defines geography of Sῑrah, expounds its
branches or dimensions and takes geographical perusal of
four Sῑrah books namely “Maghᾱzῑ Rasūl Allah” by ʽUrwah
ibn Zubair, “Sῑrah Ibn Hishᾱm” by Abū Muḥammad Abdul
Mᾱlik ibn Hishᾱm, “ʽAhd-e-Nabawῑ ke Mᾱh wa Sᾱl” by
ʽAllᾱmah Makhdūm Muḥammad Hᾱshim Sindhῑ and “ArRaḥῑq al-Makhtūm” (Sealed Nectar) by Ṣafῑ al-Raḥmᾱn
Mubᾱrakpurῑ as representative works on this genre, that is,
geographical Sῑrah. While reviewing these books, emphasis
is laid on the use of geography, both anthropological or
human geographies and physical geography employed in
these books. The errors which have unwittingly crept into
original or Urdu translations of these books are pointed out.
The maps drawn by the modern Sῑrah writers in their
geographical works are referred to, to highlight
geographical impact of these works on the modern
geographical Sῑrah writings. This article highlights two
things: firstly, the salient features of the land of Sῑrah or the
land inhabited by the Prophet surrounded by the people
described in these books and secondly, the impact factor of
these books is also discussed.
