Encyclopedia of Muhammad ﷺ (Digital Seerah Encyclopedia)

The Encyclopedia of Muhammad ﷺ stands as the flagship digital initiative of the International Seerah Council – an ambitious, global-scale project designed to become the most comprehensive online repository of knowledge about the life, character, teachings, and mission of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Developed through the collaborative effort of qualified Islamic scholars, academic researchers, linguists, historians, and subject specialists from over twenty countries, the encyclopedia offers meticulously referenced articles, each grounded in Qur’an, Hadith, classical sources, verified historical records, and contemporary academic research. Every entry is written with precision, thematic clarity, and scholarly integrity—ensuring that readers access Seerah information that is both authentic and academically reliable.
