Abstract

There has been a chronic tendency among the various religious researchers to highlight pros of their own religious founders and neglect the veracity of others. Particularly, this approach and phenomenon has been perpetually observed during the last fourteen years history of Judo-Christian antagonism against Islam and Prophet of Islam. In this background the Sira of Prophet of Islam has obtained extraordinary attraction and became a spotlight not only in Muslim intellectuals but in Western literary circles as well. However, Muslim scholars have always been vigilant and attentive in responding and evaluating the absurdities propagated by Orientalists. In this paper an exclusive study has been focused in reference to highlight the paramount contribution of Muslim researchers and historiographers in the field of research in Sira Studies.
