The Sealed Nectar Information
Ar-Raheeq-ul-Makhtum (in Arabic/Urdu: الرحيق المختوم ; meaning The Sealed Nectar) is a book of Sira (biography) of the Muslim prophet Muhammad, written in Arabic and Urdu by Safi-ur-Rehman Mubarakpuri. The Arabic version was awarded first prize by the Muslim World League, at the first Islamic Conference on Seerah, following an open competition for a book on the Sirah Rasul Allah (life of Muhammad) in 1979 (1399 AH). The book competed with 170 other manuscripts, 84 in Arabic, 64 in Urdu, 21 in English, one in French and one in Hausa.[1]
The book takes into account various phases of the life of Muhammad. It also provides authentic references which makes it more reliable and less controversial. The revised edition of the book is less than 600 pages. It has been translated into English as The Sealed Nectar.
The title of the book is taken from Quranic verse Yusqawna mirraheeq-(in)-makhtum-in[1] (meaning Their drinks will be spiced with sealed nectar)[2] i.e. Ayat 25 of Surat 83, Al-Mutaffifin (The Cheaters).
