This brief yet comprehensive work details events connected to the blessed birth of the noble Prophet ﷺ, beginning with his lineage, and followed by the description of his actual birth. It then moves into a description of Halimah al-Sa'diyyah رضي الله عنها and the intriguing events that led to her being blessed to receive the Prophet ﷺ for nursing, as well as the many blessings that manifested in her, her family, and her livestock due to his blessed presence amongst them, which all led them to the logical conclusion that this boy ﷺ was an extraordinarily blessed soul.

The text also mentions the story of when Jibril عليه السلام visited the Prophet ﷺ whilst he was still a young boy, and washed his heart after splitting his chest. It concludes by describing the Prophet’s sublime attributes and character traits, and his beautiful outer appearance ﷺ.

Authored by the magnificent scholar Imam Abu al-Fida' 'Imad al-Din Ibn Kathir al-Dimashqi, popularly known as Imam Ibn Kathir, who is predominantly celebrated for his magnum opuses – a complete Qur’anic exegesis and a prophetic biography. Imam Ibn Kathir was born in the year 701/1301 in a village on the outskirts of Basra in Syria, passing away in 774/1373 in the bustling city of Damascus.

The immense love that Imam Ibn Kathir had for the Prophet ﷺ consistently shines brightly throughout this excellent translation. It is a short work that can be revisited often, particularly in Rabi' al-Awwal, with each perusal leaving the reader with increased love and adoration for the noble Prophet ﷺ.

Futuwwah and Raising Males into Sacred Manhood concisely discusses the principles within futuwwah, or spiritual chivalry, that young men should strive to embody and should inculcate into our communities. While the virtues discusses in this text are not all exclusively related to young males becoming men, this book is tailored towards males, and the specific issues faced by males as they strive to grow into the path of manhood. Just as young women need their own spaces to learn from women how to become honorable sisters, young men require their own special places to instill in them the virtues of upright brothers.

The Islamic tradition calls for a revival of organized training relating to spiritual chivalry and sacred manhood - this is the task of the hour. There are beautiful and majestic qualities embodied by the Prophet s that he passed down to his family members and pious Companions. Those upright men were methodically raised up: they undertook rites of passage, and manly responsibilities which were placed upon them with expectations that they would be executed with excellence.

This book begins by establishing the linguistic and operational definitions of the Arabic word futuwwah, translated here as "spiritual chivalry." The text then discusses the essential virtues for developing healthy manhood, in a specific order of their priority in teaching. The Qur'anic verses, Prophetic narrations, and sayings of pious Companions and scholars on the subject of futuwwah are related with sound meaning, accompanied by meticulous citations in footnotes and endnotes.

The science of Khasa'is encompasses the study of the uniqueness of the actions, the attributes, and the essence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, as well as the special gifts given to him, and the special gifts that are given to the Muslim Ummah by virtue of their status as the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ. Knowledge of the Khasa'is is considered to be one of the keys to benefiting from one's relationship with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, since his unique aspects provide openings to innumerable blessings.

In the history of Islam, the earliest works in the genre of Khasa'is date from the time of the early Imams and compilers of Hadith. This present work consists of translations of two major works in the genre of Khasais and one supplemental work from three of the great scholars of the Ummah: Bidayat al-Sul fi Tafdhil al-Rasul ﷺ of Shaykh 'Izz al-Din ibn 'Abd al-Salam, as well as Unmūdhaj al-Labīb fi Khasa’is al-Habib ﷺ of Imam Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti, and selections from Matali' al-Masarrat li Jala' Dala'il al-Khayrat of Shaykh Muhammad al-Mahdi al-Fasi.

However, in modern times the science of Khasa'is has been neglected, to the point that many Muslims have become unaware of its existence. This present volume is an attempt to rectify this deficiency, to present the Khasa'is to an English-speaking audience in a manner befitting the unique honor, majesty, and significance of Allah's Final Messenger ﷺ. Each page is the result of a collaboration of a world-class team of translators, editors, designers, typesetters, and printers from across four continents, and every detail represents a fusion of traditional knowledge and design elements with state-of-the-art book production methods. The result is a work the like of which has never before been printed in the English language, that is sure to occupy a place of honor in the library or home.

This book will give you:

• A renewed sense of honor in the unique and distinctive qualities of our Prophet ﷺ and the Ummah of our Prophet ﷺ
• Deeper understanding of the many traditional names and titles of Allah's Messenger ﷺ and the wisdom, significance, and purpose of each one
• Increased love for Allah's Messenger ﷺ, attachment to him, and awe of him

Concerning Divine Wisdom in the Creation of Man is a selected translation and commentary of Imam al-Ghazali's treatise on the human anatomy and physiology. In it, al-Ghazali masterfully provides the seeker of religious knowledge a window into Allah’s creativity through the Islamic study of anatomy.

The study of anatomy for the Muslim serves as a potential means to fulfill two distinct goals:

1. To increase one’s attachment to the Creator through a deeper appreciation of the details of His creation
2. Or to become a professional with knowledge of diseases and cures

The broad audience of medical students, physicians, healthcare professionals, as well as non-medical seekers of religious knowledge will appreciate the details of human anatomy described by Imam al-Ghazali through an Islamic lens. Readers will also recognize that this discussion, though accurate from the perspective of modern medicine, reflects a distinctly different paradigm from that of modern anatomy and physiology.

Imam al-Ghazali asserts that there is a spiritual component to the human being, and that every detail of human anatomy is representative of Allah's qudra, His power, and His wisdom. In this text, al-Ghazali describes these spiritual purposes alongside the physical anatomy, with the same level of clarity and precision.

This edition includes Dr. Kamran Riaz's meticulous English translation side-by-side with al-Ghazali's original Arabic text. The translation is followed by over 150 endnotes from Dr. Riaz and Shaykh Mohammed Amin Kholwadia.

“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

This is the complete 4-Quarter 2023 Shamail course bundle with recordings. It will be a total of 40 classes, insha'Allah. 

Imam al-Tirmidhi's Al-Shama’il al-Muhammadiyya contains 414 Hadith that together present a detailed description of the moral, physical and spiritual qualities of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Over 40 sessions spanning the 12 months of 2023, Shaykh Ahmed El Azhary will guide us through a close reading of the entire Shama'il.

An ijazah will be granted from Shaykh Ahmed Elazhary to all students who study all four quarters and attend the recital. This ijazah will link students to Imam al-Tirmidhi and, thereon, to Sayyiduna Muhammad ﷺ. 

During these 40 sessions, Shaykh Ahmed El Azhary will guide us through a close reading of the Shama'il. This course is designed to give you the following:

• Deep knowledge of the character, behaviour, and personal qualities of Allah's Messenger ﷺ
• Understanding of why knowledge of the character of the Prophet ﷺ is central for all areas of the religion
  
• Enriched appreciation for the world and the worldview of the Companions رضي الله عنهم and the Early Generations of Muslims
• Renewed and strengthened love for Allah's Messenger ﷺ, knowledge of him, and desire to see him in this life and the Next

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.

What students are saying:

"I just wanted to say this course was an amazing experience. I finally had the chance to take a class like this with a qualified scholar, and I want to express my sincere gratitude to the Shaykh and the team. This class brought moments of renewed faith, and made my Iman and my love for the Prophet ﷺ stronger. It brought me immense joy. JazakAllah khayran so much to Shaykh and the team. I only hope Allah facilitates more. May Allah give you khair and love and protect you all."

"This was my first class with Imam Ghazali Institute, and I just really enjoyed the course. I love the book and the translators. The beauty of the publications from Imam Ghazali Institute is extraordinary, and it was so nice to be connected to the Shaykh and to receive to receive his wisdom.

Known in Arabic simply as the Arba'in, "The Forty," this is without question the most widely-known and widely-read small compilation of Prophetic hadith. Across the world, from the east to the west, Imam al-Nawawi's collection is often the first, and sometimes the only Hadith text many Muslims study in their lives.

Each hadith in this collection and serves as a foundational proof text in at least one area of the Islamic sciences. Being of such importance, these Hadith are also incredibly dense in meaning; one of Allah's gifts to His Prophet ﷺ was the ability to convey volumes in only a few words, and the Hadith of the Arba'in are among the best examples of this.

IGI's edition of al-Nawawi's Arba'in includes:

• New translation of each Hadith
• Succinct gems to ponder the significance and major themes of each Hadith
  
• Short biography of Imam al-Nawawi
• Paperback; 100 pages
• Foreword by Shaykh Abdullah Anik Misra
• Translation by Talut Dawood

This is a beautiful edition that is easy and pleasurable to read, that you will return to again and again, and that we hope will live on your shelf for many years to come.

This text is a collection of approximately 400 unique salawat composed by Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari. Similar to the famous Dala'il al-Khayrat of Imam al-Jazuli, the text is arranged into seven chapters, with one chapter for each day of the week. However, rather than a collection of traditional salawat like the Dala’il, the Salawat of Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari is an original text reflecting the knowledge, insight, and outpourings of the Shaykh.

This new bilingual edition contains an English transliteration and translation of each salawat with voweled Arabic text, to allow English-speaking readers to better understand the meanings of these extraordinary prayers. The foreword to this edition is also in English.

Shaykh Salih al-Ja’fari was a master of the sacred sciences, and one of the most respected scholars of the Ahl al-Sunnah w'al Jama'at of his generation. However, although he served as Imam of al-Azhar for many years, he is perhaps better known in the West today as one of the the foremost Arabic poets of the past century. These salawat are extremely beautiful, and the reader cannot help but notice their extreme beauty and eloquence. Even those who read Arabic at a beginner-level will benefit, while those who read and speak Arabic fluently will perceive many subtleties of the text’s language, composition, and meanings.

Throughout Egypt, Sudan, east Africa, southeast Asia, and elsewhere, thousands of people recite each day's portion of the Salawat of Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari consistently. These salawat have continued to become ever more widely known and more beloved in the years since the Shaykh death, may God have mercy on him. It's possible to imagine that, in time, the Salawat of Shaykh Salih al-Ja'fari may become as famous and widely known as Imam al-Jazuli's collection.

Those who intend to read the salawat regularly or daily may consider purchasing the beautiful leather PU illuminated edition, the compact and durable pocket edition of this text as well. The leather PU + pocket editions are also available as a bundle here.

Imam al-Ghazali’s Ihya ‘Ulum al-Din is a proven guide to tazkiyah or self-purification. This foundational text provides both a framework to understand the maladies and struggles of the human spiritual condition, as well as a clear process to address such issues within oneself and one’s own life.

The Ihya is widely considered the most important book in the Islamic tradition outside of the Qur'an and Hadith. Imam al-Nawawi stated: "Were the books of Islam all to be lost, excepting only the Ihya, it would suffice to replace them all."

Closely based on the Ihya, Ibn Daud’s Jamal Parekh’s A Handbook of Spiritual Medicine organizes al-Ghazali's framework into an easy-to-understand format, which is quite accessible to modern readers. Over the next 10 weeks, Shaykh Abdullah Anik Misra will utilize both al-Ghazali's Ihya as well as A Handbook of Spiritual Medicine to guide students through the process of self-assessment, recovery, and healing from such issues. The course will utilize selections from Qur'an, Hadith, and the Ihya, following the outline established in Ibn Daud's text.

This course will include the following:

• Ten live sessions held via Zoom
• Time for Q&A in each class session 
• Access to recordings of all class sessions
• Invitation to a private Telegram chat with Shaykh Abdullah Misra to facilitate discussion and Q&A

While not required, students are encouraged to obtain a copy of A Handbook of Spiritual Medicine in order to best follow along with the material.

Your Teacher

Abdullah Misra was born in Toronto, Canada in 1983. His family hails from India and he was raised in the Hindu tradition. He embraced Islam in 2001 while at the University of Toronto, from where he completed a Bachelor of Business Administration. He then traveled overseas in 2005 to study the Arabic language and Islamic sciences in Tarim, Yemen for some time, as well as in Trinidad, West Indies. He spent 12 years in Amman, Jordan where he focused on Islamic Law, Theology, Hadith Sciences, Prophetic Biography and Islamic Spirituality while also working at the Qasid Arabic Institute as Director of Programs. He holds a BA in Islamic Studies and authorization in the six authentic books of Hadith, and is currently pursuing specialized training in issuing Islamic legal verdicts (ifta’). He holds a certificate in Counselling and often works with new Muslims and those struggling with religious OCD. His personal interests include Indian history, comparative religion, English singing and poetry.

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.

In the age that we live in, our days have become our nights, and our nights have become our days wherein we are continually focusing on matters of this temporary life and turning a blind eye to that which matters, such as the teachings of the best of creation, the one who uttered in a supplication: “O Allah, my Nation, my Nation!”, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

This compilation is unique in that each form of prayer highlights the connection between the Messenger ﷺ and the Names and Qualities of Allah ﷻ. In addition, each form includes a unique supplication for the one reciting it. The reciter of these prayers thus finds himself engaging in the remembrance of Allah ﷻ by calling Him through His Most Sublime Names, and asking Him to send prayers and increase the honour and rank of the Messenger ﷺ. By doing this, he obtains the virtues and reward of sending prayers upon the Prophet, and also supplicates to Allah, asking Him such amazing things that we are generally unable to think of when asking of Him.

The author, Ḥabīb ʿUmar bin Ḥafīẓ, is a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad. ﷺ, and one of the great luminaries of our time. This salawat collection has been made available to English speakers for whom we ask Allah ﷻ to make it a means to attain proximity, in this life and the Hereafter, to Him ﷻ and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

About the instructor:

Shaykh Hamzah Abdul Malik memorized the Qur'an at a young age, before going overseas to study for nearly 2 decades. He then returned to the USA and settled in Memphis, where he founded Miraaj Academy, a full-time school and Hifz program, and helped found Midtown Mosque. He is also a founder of UMMAH (United Masjids Making American History), a national collaborative of Imams from successful inner-city masjids working together at a grassroots level to uplift their communities. He has a deep understanding of the unique religious and spiritual challenges facing American Muslims today, and applies this understanding to his work at every level.

Muslims speak of Islam in egalitarian terms: the religion of peace, the religion that seeks to elevate man over his base desires, the religion that does not discriminate based on race and ethnicity. Despite the egalitarian spirit of Islam, the lived reality of many Muslims is very different, and this is most apparent when we observe how Muslims deal with race and ethnicity.

Muslims who are Black in the West in particular, have found that while Islam may not discriminate based on race, many Muslims do. To make matters worse, some of those Muslims will delve in to the Islamic tradition to justify their biases and bigotries, seeing no contradiction between their racism and the Islamic ideals.

This work seeks to clarify and debunk some traditions which support their racist positions, and presents biographies of early Muslims who were Black. The biographies of these great Muslim personalities shows us how Blackness was a normal part of life for early Muslims, in sharp contradistinction to modern prejudices against Black folks found in some Muslim communities.

“Imam Dawud Walid’s life’s work – in his previous publications, in the present volume and over the decade that I have known him – commends him as a soldier against satanic racism and especially its most perfect historical expression: white supremacy. This volume, by framing a religious response to what must be understood as a satanic spiritual attack, should be widely read and taught.”
