What is the best book for studying seerah?

I remember someone talking about "the Sealed Nectar", is it the best book on this topic out there?

The Sealed Nectar seems to be the most prominent book on the seerah (perhaps because a translation for it is readily available?)..

Regardless..there are other books of the seerah which are wonderful and thorough in content such as:

1. Zaad Al-Ma'aad by Ibn Katheer
2. Min Mae'een As-seerah by Ash-Shammi
3. Seerat Ibn Hisham
4. Fiqh As-Seerah by Al-Ghazali
5. As-Seerah Annabawiyya by Ibn Katheer
6. Ashamae'el Al-Mohammadiyyah by Al-Tirmidhi

and the more "contemporary" (if I may call them so):

7. Mohammad As if You See Him by Ayidh Al-Qarni
8. This is the beloved Mohammad (saaws) by Abi Bakr Aj-Jaze'eriy


The first six are easily available in Arabic (I don't know if you're an Arabic speaker or not)..the last two..may be available in English..especially the one by Ayidh Al-Qarni..many of his books are translated to English..so perhaps this one is available as well..inshallah it is!..Sh. Al-Qarni is a profound writer and lecturer mashallah!

If I haven't provided much help..then pardon me for wasting your time akhi..but I wanted to put down what I know..of course this list is not a limitation..as it can't be..there are heaps of books on the seerah..but since you asked for the best..I listed the ones described as so by most people

May Allah bless you and guard you..ameen!
