The Sealed Nectar (Hardcover) – Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtoum, Award-Winning Biography of the Prophet ﷺ

The Sealed Nectar, or Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtoum, is the most widely read English biography of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Written by Shaykh Safiur-Rahman Al-Mubarakpuri, it took first prize in the worldwide seerah competition held by the Muslim World League, and it has been the standard recommendation for English readers ever since.
