Words from Shaykh Hasan Al-Banna to the Muslims

Muslim Brethren!

Do not lose hope, as hopelessness is infidelity. What was a dream yesterday, is a reality today. What is a dream today, tomorrow it shall be a reality. And there is a vastness in time. Although the roots of mischief and riot are very strong, but the elements of health and security in the Muslim nations are very healthy and tremendous. Then weak does not always remain weak. The power of the powerful does also not always last forever.

The illustrious Imam and erudite scholar of al-Azhar, Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari, authored an extraordinary amount of poetry on many subjects. The Shaykh's poems comprise twelve volumes, which grouped according to their subject matter, ranging from the remembrance and glorification of Allah, advice for the one traversing the spiritual path to Allah, exalting the excellence of the Beloved ﷺ and the Ahl al-Bayt, and the virtues of the Path’s litanies and salawat.

This book contains selected poems from the first of those twelve volumes. These selections focus on the relationship between the shaykh and murid, as well as the virtues of the spiritual path. These poems were specifically selected by Shaykh Muhammad Salih al-Ja'fari, the grandson of Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari. The core of these selected poems, just as in the shaykh’s poetry overall, are from the genre of what is known as madih (praise poetry), in praise of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Ahl al-Bayt.

Regarding the methodology of his father, Shaykh 'Abd-al-Ghani al-Ja'fari said the following:

"This door of spiritual openings, which our Shaykh traveled, is a clear opening, and whoever traverses it will arrive, and whoever arrives will be connected, and whoever is connected will see and witness, and whoever has witnessed, has intimate discourse, and becomes acquainted, and whoever becomes acquainted, is guided to the Muḥammadan Reality, thus he multiplies love by love. As he ﷺ has said: 'A man is with the one he loves.'"

These poems are truly transformative, both for the one who recites them and the one who listens, and represent acceptance and invitation to the presence of the Prophet and his household.

This bilingual edition contains the original fully-vowelized Arabic text with an easy-to-read English translation directly following each line, and has been designed for use in regular gatherings of remembrance.

Selections from The Muhammadan Covenants: Sincerity in Knowledge and Action presents a curated selection from the larger work of Imam ʿAbd al-Wahāb al-Shaʿrānī, one of the foremost scholars of the tenth Islamic century. In these pages, he gathers covenants that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took from his community, with a focus on sincerity, correct intention, and faithful practice. The selections call the reader to purify motive, align action with the Sacred Law, and measure learning by its fruits.

The book opens with the covenant to make one’s worship for Allah alone, to cleanse the heart of display and pride, and to seek reward as a gift from the Divine rather than a wage owed. It then lays out practical counsels for seekers and teachers alike. Readers are encouraged by the author to act upon the Sunnah in word, deed, and belief, and to refrain when evidence is unclear. There are reminders to attend the gatherings of hadith recitals, keep the company of scholars, honor those who carry knowledge, and transmit what benefits without boasting or rivalry. The warnings are equally clear. Do not answer questions without sincerity. Do not be careless in narrating reports. Do not be deluded by memorization that lacks practice. Do not claim knowledge except for a purpose allowed by the Sacred Law.

Throughout, the tone is direct and constructive. The Imam ties spiritual states to concrete obligations, and he sets a standard that is high yet attainable. The reader comes away with a framework for study, teaching, and worship that safeguards intention and the path.

This edition offers a careful selection on sincerity and practice, making the core themes accessible to readers who seek guidance that is both devotional and disciplined. It is a handbook for anyone who wishes to align knowledge with action and draw nearer to Allah through what He has legislated.

Sharh Al-Aqeedat-il-Wasitiyah (Explanation of the Creed) Fundamental Beliefs of Islam and Rejection of False Concepts Sheikh-ul-Islam's book Al-Aqeedah Al-Wasitiyah deals with the perfect and undefiled Islamic Faith and Creed of the As-Salaf-As-Salih (the pious predecessors) particularly in regards to ALLAH's names and attributes, with solid arguments in brief words and terminology. The book is highly appreciated by the scholars for its brevity as well as comprehensiveness; and for its contents produced perfectly in line with the Qur'an and Sunnah in an appealing and manifest manner. The eminent scholar of Islam, Sheikh-ul-Islam Imam Ibn Taimiyah, discusses the real & original faith of Islam according to the Qur'an & Sunnah. The real faith in ALLAH and his religion Islam is to follow the Qur'an and Sunnah strictly. Any scholar who adds or attributes or alters any basic fundamental of Islam is wrong & deviates from the teachings of Islam. Every Muslim must read this book to get the real light of Faith.

This is a short but valuable text that elucidates one of the more controversial issues related to the people of Tasawwuf, and more specifically to the people of unveiling. Although many of the Imams and people of lofty status, whom no one could accuse of lying, have reported seeing the Prophet ﷺ in a wakeful state, the issue remains problematic for some Scholars, among both the supporters and the critics of the Sufis. 

Imam al-Suyuti argues that such a vision is not only possible, but that there are many well-documented examples of such visions, both  in the time of the Sahabah (radhi Allahu 'anhum ajma'in) and afterwards. The Imam begins with texts that are irrefutable, from the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ, which establish the explicit possibility of the occurrence of such visions. Al-Suyuti then presents sound anecdotal evidence that such encounters have occurred in the past, mentioning stories from the Companions (radhi Allahu 'anhum ajma'in) and from the righteous Scholars and Imams (may Allah have mercy on them). Finally, Imam al-Suyuti concludes this short treatise by providing answers to various possible and plausible objections. 

Overall, this book is recommended as an introduction to the subject, which is covered in detail in the works of many of the Awliya' (may Allah have mercy on them).

The book, Simple Wisdom, by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan collects, in one immensely rich compendium, more than three hundred and fifty short articles, which have been arranged for easy reading on a daily basis. In the book, the author shares wisdom of life regarding God realization, piety, modes of divine worship and such spiritual knowledge as will help the reader become acquainted with the Grace and power of God and His Creation Plan. As you turn over the pages day-by-day, your soul will touch new spiritual heights of wisdom, peace and understanding.

The Quran, a book which brings glad tidings to mankind along with divine admonition, stresses the importance of man's discovery of truth on both spiritual and intellectual planes. Every book has its objective and the objective of the Quran is to make man aware of the Creation plan of God. That is, to tell man why God created this world; what the purpose is of settling man on earth; what is required from man in his pre-death life span, and what he is going to confront after death. The purpose of the Quran is to make man aware of this reality, thus serving to guide man on his entire journey through life into the after-life. The main themes of the Quran are enlightenment, closeness to God, peace and spirituality. The Quran uses several terms, tawassum, tadabbur, and tafakkur, which indicate the learning of lessons through reflection, thinking and contemplation on the signs of God scattered across the world. The present translation of the Quran and its explanatory notes are written keeping in mind these very themes.

'And from the virtues of this month is that the good deeds are multiplied. It has been narrated that the optional deeds are equal in reward to the obligatory deeds; and the obligatory deeds have the reward of 70 obligatory deeds. And whoever provides food to break the fast of the fasting person shall have forgiveness for his sins and his neck freed from the Fire; and he will have the reward of the fasting person without decreasing the reward of the fasting person in the least. Therefore; all of this good and all of these blessings and opportunities are provided for the Muslims by the entrance of this blessed month. Therefore; it is befitting that the Muslim greet this month with happiness; delight; and joy. And he should praise Allah when he reaches the month and seek Allah's help in fasting and putting forth good deeds during the month.'
