The book is written in Arabic and recounts the Prophet’s life and conduct, his birth, his mission, wars, etc.
One of the sections in the book is concerned with the Prophet’s marriage with Hazrat Khadijeh, and therefore, outlines the personal characteristics of her.
Addressing the event on Tuesday, Seyyed Ali Farimaneh, a university and seminary lecturer in the ceremony, pointed the importance of studying the life of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
“The holy Prophet called marriage his legacy, and Islam attaches a great significance to it because starting a family has a profound impact on human’s spiritual, emotional and behavioral growth,” he said.
