A documentary and content analysis of the narrations concerning the Prophet’s biography is one of the most important topics in Islamic studies. Most of the works written by early scholars in this field are either based on mere reporting, like Ibn Hisham’s *Al-Sīrah*, or employ a combinatory method (transmitting and compiling narrations), like Ya’qubi’s *Tārīkh*. In the contemporary period, the analytical method in historical reports has become one of the most important approaches in the study of the Prophet’s biography. Among the notable works compiled by Shiite scholars in this regard are *Al-Ṣaḥīḥ min Sīrat al-Nabī al-Aʿẓam (PBUH)* by Sayyid Jaʿfar Murtadā al-ʿĀmilī and the book *Khātam al-Nabiyyīn (PBUH)* by the late Sayyid Muḥammad Saʿīd al-Ḥakīm. Both works are dedicated to the analytical study of the Prophet’s biography, and although one is detailed and the other concise, each author has endeavored, through a unique method and remarkable precision, to analyze the concepts of the Prophet’s biography.
 
This article attempts to use a descriptive-analytical method to compare the scholarly approaches of these two figures in processing and examining the Prophet’s biography. The late ʿĀmilī, while explaining the prophetic character and examining the phenomenon of the prohibition of ḥadīth and its role in distorting historical truths and the spread of fabricated narrations, discusses the role of storytellers in this regard. After describing the chaotic principles and criteria in compiling the biography, he presents, from his own perspective, principles, regulations, and criteria for conducting sound scholarly research. Instead, by drawing on various historical and ḥadīth sources and paying attention to social and political issues, he sought to provide a contemporary reading of the concepts of the Prophet’s biography. By returning to authentic sources and adopting correct methods of understanding and interpreting these sources, and by utilizing the luminous biography of the Prophet (PBUH), they can overcome their contemporary challenges.
