Sirah: Transforming Yathrib to Madinah - With Dr Suleyman Sertkaya

What were the most critical steps taken by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in his very first year in Madinah and why do they matter so much? In this podcast, Dr Suleyman Sertkaya explores the foundational decisions made by the Prophet after the Hijrah, showing how Madinah was transformed from Yathrib into a morally, socially, and politically grounded community. Rather than viewing events in isolation, this talk situates the first year in Madinah within the broader chronology of the Sīrah, highlighting intention, strategy, and long-term vision.
