A Portrait of the Prophet: As Seen by His Contemporaries

Very well translated, love this book. The translator really cares about how he translates the work to give a clear meaning.

I recommend having this book. Thank you very much.

A rare and beautiful work.

Best available translation of the Shama'il I've seen so far, but it has many errors that could have been fixed with a properly scholarly edit. I hope the next edition makes the appropriate corrections.

It’s good but the story is keep repeating it self like for example the first chapter with the first topic of what the prophet looks like it shows so many repeated daliil from different sahabas on one subject and takes over three pages of each sahabi talking about how his hair looks like and the cloths he wore and how he ( scws) walked meantion in the same way by several sahabi.

My wife and I read this book in the tents of Mina when we went on out Pilgrimage / Hajj in 2019.It's a great read for anyday, but felt so much more special when we were there. Couldn't fault it.Thank you 😀

Clear and structured.
