I'm currently reading 'Muhammad' - His life based on the earliest sources' by Martin Lings. Absolutely fascinating.

1. start with something easy like "when the moon split" by darassalam publications.

2. then go to raheeq al-mukhtum, by the same publishers.

3. then read the life of Mohammad by ibn ishaq, translated by alfred guillame

4. then read zaad al-muad by ibn al-qayyum (4 out of 12 volumes are in english)
