This edition of the Shamail was specifically created with the specs required for the majority of prisons in the USA and Canada. 

The Shama’il al-Muhammadiyya of Imam al-Tirmidhi presents us detailed descriptions of the moral, physical and spiritual qualities of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The perfections that Allah bestowed upon the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ encompass every aspect of his blessed being: his outward physical form, his senses, his internal form and his inner beauty. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the most perfect embodiment of created beauty and form, and he is unsurpassed in his perfections. No one can rival or outstrip him in any laudable quality or trait. He knows Allah as He should be known. He fears Allah as He should be feared. He loves Allah as He should be loved. Understanding the Shama’il is absolutely critical to any proper understanding of Islam, for it details the qualities of the message-bearer, which fundamentally alters how we understand the message he brought.

Praise for the Shama'il

I very highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to know about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and to grow closer to him." – Aisha M.

From the acclaimed author of The Endless Banquet series, The Qur'an Code: A Study & Explanation of Themes from Juz 'Amma is a new reading guide to the best-known, most oft-recited, and most frequently memorized chapters of the Qur'an. 

Memorization of Juz 'Amma is a rite of passage for Muslims around the world, often completed at a young age. However, the many layers of meanings within these short Surahs, and the extraordinary variety of connections between them, continue to reveal themselves even to the most knowledgeable and experienced scholars.

In The Qur'an Code: A Study & Explanation of Themes from Juz 'Amma, Shaykh Hamzah Abdul Malik guides the reader through an exploration of the 37 Surahs in this section. Each Surah is discussed in detail, with emphasis on the following:

• The main theme of each Surah
• The context of each Surah within the larger message of the Qur'an as well as within the Sīrah
• The relationship of each Surah with the Surah that precedes it and with select other Surahs
• A detailed discussion of key themes of different sections within each Surah, including line by line explanation of their meanings

This book is designed to help the reader develop greater understanding and a deeper connection to these Surahs, where reading, reciting, and listening to the recitation of Juz 'Amma becomes a much richer, more fulfilling, and more beneficial experience.

Written in easy-to-understand language, The Qur'an Code: Themes from Juz 'Amma aims to inspire a new generation of readers of the Qur’an, among Muslims who are comfortable reading and speaking English. This is a book designed to help you to rekindle and renew your love for the Qur’an, if Allah wills.

“Morning & Evening Invocations and the Ten Sevens before Sunrise & before Sunset” is a litany arranged by the late Shaikh Dr Thaika Shu’aib Alim. In the words of the noble Shaikh, this necklace of invocations has been strung primarily with priceless gems and pearls from the Qur’an and the Sunna. In addition, a few radiant jewels from some of the Muhammadan awliya’ or “saints” have been included.

“This compilation of selected invocations is for all Muslims and not restricted. I beseech Allah Most High to bestow tawfiq, taisir, naja, falah and hidaya upon all who make this part of their daily routine.” – Shaikh Dr Thaika Shu’aib Alim (d. 15 Jun 2021)

Set in clear Arabic script with accompanying transliteration and translation, it is a beautiful and practical devotional work with extensive notes. It is arranged in such a way that one can recite the entire compilation every day or choose selected invocations for one’s needs. The attribution of every recital to a historical personage (with biographical notes) makes the work unique in its presentation.

This book contains ten different sections:

1. Preface, outlining the back story of this text and discussing the role of du'a, and particularly a structured routine of du'a, in the life of a Muslim
2. "The Basis," a selection of verses from the Qur'an which mention dhikr
3. "Morning and evening invocations," the heart of the text, a sequence of 41 du'a from the Qur'an, Sunnah, and selected scholars, with attribution for each one
4. "The Ten Sevens," a sequence of recitations from the Qur'an and du'a
5. "The Seal of Prophethood," a traditional calligraphic portrait of the khatam an-nubuwwa that is between the Prophet's shoulders ﷺ
6. Postface, a selection of several Hadith Qudsi and several verses from the Qur'an, along with commentary from Shaykh Thaika Shuaib, penned less than a year before
7. Publisher's afterword
8. Biographical notes, which includes brief biographies of each Prophet, Companion, and scholar to whom one of the du'a in the text is attributed
9. Obituary of Shaykh Dr. Thaika Shu'aib
10. Notes & References, which includes 50 footnotes to the du'a in the "Morning and Evening Invocations" and the "Ten Sevens" sections

In a world increasingly driven by materialism and immediate gratification, Heaven Explored: A Description of Jannah offers a glimpse into the divine promise that awaits the faithful. This beautiful work by Sayyid Muhammad b. 'Alawi al-Maliki, translated into English by Shaykh Ahmad Shaist, unveils the Islamic vision of Jannah, a realm beyond human imagination. By compiling the numerous vivid descriptions of Jannah in the Qur'an and Hadith, this text brings the reader on a profound journey, which instills hope and provides both solace and much-needed perspective.

In his inimitable style, the late Sayyid weaves together the different descriptions and discusses them both as reality and as metaphors for spiritual fulfillment and eternal closeness to Allah, providing a nuanced understanding of the afterlife that transcends literal interpretations. "What No Eye Has Seen," or as rendered in this translation, “Heaven Explored”, is a compelling read for anyone interested in acquainting themselves with the nature of Jannah for the believers. This book is more than an academic treatise; it is a journey towards understanding the divine promise that lies at the heart of a believer’s journey to Allah – the promise of a Paradise beyond the limits of human imagination, meeting the Beloved of Allah ﷺ by the Pond, and seeing Allah, the Exalted.

Heaven Explored: A Description of Jannah goes beyond theological exploration, presenting Paradise as both a future abode and a guiding principle for living a righteous, purposeful life. In this edition, Sayyid Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki’s insights are brought to life through Shaykh Ahmad Shaist's meticulous translation, making the work accessible to a global English-speaking audience. As Sayyid Zain al-Haddad and Shaykh Musab Penfound write in the foreword, this work is "a beacon for those seeking to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Hereafter"
