Nothing is hidden from the life of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)

His birth, infancy, childhood, adolescence, manhood; his business deals, his travels; his marriage; his friends before his Prophethood; his participation in the fight of the Qureish and the subsequent peace treaty; the title of “Trustworthy” given to him by his people (prior to his Prophethood); his amicable solution to the problem of fixing the sacred stone in the holy Ka’bah and thus avoiding a great bloodshed amongst the Qureish; his gradual withdrawal from the then corrupt society of Makkah and retreat to the Mount Hera outside the city; his contemplation and the first revelation of the Word of God; the advent of Islam; his call to Allah, his preaching of the Divine message; the opposition of the elite of Makkah; his journey to Taif; the Meraj (his ascendence to the Heavens); his migration to Madinah; his battles against the non-believers;  in short every one of these events is before the whole world, clear and complete to the smallest detail. There is not a single aspect of his life hidden from history. Even the false and fabricated stories about him have been preserved and passed down to history by his Muslim biographers so that everybody could see the truth from false hood, the right from the wrong, and then form their own independent opinion. Sometimes one wonders why his Muslim biographers have saved the fabricated traditions together with the authentic traditions or the ones that show a weak link in the chain of narrators of those particular traditions. Perhaps there is a hand of Providence in that so that none of his opposers could say that his followers have tried to cover up the alleged weakness of their Prophet (Peace be upon him) by omitting certain traditions, like the objection raised against the Christian literature these days.

Therefore, our worthy scholars have collected and presented the whole literature, including the fabricated reports about their Prophet (Peace be upon him) and historical evidence to tell the difference between the false and the true traditions.
