In Modern times, Muslim scholars approached Sirah from a western perspective under the influence of intense
pressure from western thought that become gradually stronger. This period witnessed the rise of rationalistic
assessments; authors often express their discontent with regard to classical sirah writing and the knowledge
within conventional sirah works. In particular, the extraordinary cases and miracles which are attributed to
Muhammad are intensely criticised and excluded by some modern works. Pursuant to dominant views in the West,
modern sirah authors emphasise that Muhammad is only a human, and they opt to analyse his life through the
eyes of a natural cause-effect relationship belonging to physical conditions.
