Question

Assamualakum,
Dear Shaykh, I study in Darul Uloom Bradford; I have contacted you twice through this website. I attended one of your beautiful discourses regarding the blessed life of Sayyidina Rasulullah (S.A.W) in Masjid –e -Cuba, in the discourse you mentioned the description that Umm-e-Ma’bad (R.A.) gave in regards to the Prophet (S.A.W) where can I find this?

Secondly, what is the most recommended Seerat kitaab to read in Urdu, English and Arabic?

Jazakallah,

Wassalam.
