Thank you for your reply=) I was thinking more of books about battles of the prophet (pbuh) (which I assume are included in his biography), but I want specific titles of books about the history after the prophets death, about the CAliphafates: abu Bakr, Omar, etc.
asalam o alicom.
The best book which is written on the life of Hazrat muhammand (pbuh) is in arabic.But i think it is also available in english the name of book (araheeq-ul-makhtoom) that book is very excellent.because it is the first book which gain popularity in all over the world.in this book the complete life of prophet Muhammand is available with reference.secondly if u can search the name of writer is (Hakeem mahmood akhtar) this writer wrote all khallipha (Hazrat abu bakar ,Ali,usman,umar .this is the only writer i saw his books he wrote every sentence with reference.during my study i searched history books so i found that writer excellent.note his name and search in his library.inshallah u will enjoy when u read it.
