Kitab al-Maghazi — Musa ibn Uqba

By موسى بن عقبة

كتاب المغازي — موسى بن عقبة

Kitab al-Maghazi by Musa ibn Uqba al-Madani (d. 141 AH), regarded by many scholars as the earliest monograph on the Prophet ﷺ's campaigns; Ibn Ishaq and Ibn Hisham drew on it in the Sira. Recorded here so its identity stays distinct from al-Waqidi's later work of the same title.
