Contribution of Erwa bin Zubair in the biography of the Prophet - Reading the importance of a leading Islamic historian
Abstract
The efforts exerted by Urwa Ibn Al-Zubair to register the Prophets (PBUH) biography have been described as dangerous as he paved the way for the historical study that worked as a starting point to collect many historical events related specifically and basically to the raids . He also endeavored to establish some bases in this respect. He disclosed the meaning of the nations experiences; a matter that has made him of the most distinguished pioneers of historical registration in the first century A.H. He was one of the prominent figures who had set the basics and the origins and possessed a historical sense. To him is due the credit of pushing later Islamic studies forward and the contribution to the development of Islamic historical registration.
