The researcher starts by laying down the fundamental points on the concept of al-‘istishhād from the Qur’ān and narrations of the prophet. It is then followed by an analysis on the method of 'Akrām Ḍiyā' al-ʿŪmarī in citing them in the prophetic biography throughout his book, the al-Sīrah al-Nabawiyyah al-Ṣaḥīḥah, with some evidence from the latter. The researcher then brings about a basic comparison between his method and the methods of another selected sīrah scholars from muḥadīthin and historians . The paper concludes that al-ʿŪmarī pursues the approach of the sīrah scholars in citing the Qur’ān and the narrations of the prophet in al-sīrah al-nabawiyyah.otherakram ḍiya al-ʿumari,al-sirah
