The well-known collection of ahadith in support of Hanafi fiqh by Muhammad bin Ali al-Neemwi (d. 1322 AH).
Bidayat as-sul fi Tafdil ar-Rasul (The Beginning of the Quest for the High Esteem of the Messenger) is a concise work summarising succinctly forty distinctive virtues and characteristics of the Messenger of Allâh (Allah bless him and give him peace)
Translated by Aisha Bewley.
The Author Imam 'Izz ibn 'Abd al-Salam, nicknamed the Sultan of Scholars, produced a number of brilliant works in Shafi'i jurisprudence, Qur’anic exegesis, methodological fundamentals of Sacred Law, formal legal opinion, government, and Sufism, and a masterpiece on Islamic legal principles, Qawa'id al-ahkam fi masalih al-anam [The Bases of Legal Rulings in the Interests of Mankind].
A compendium of good deeds done easily without any significant labor and without any expenditure. May be that these apparently minor deeds steer our lives onto the path of Divine pleasure and ensure our salvation.
Decisions define who we are. The paths we choose mark out our lives-who we marry, how we make a living, even our very names-all of these can be traced back to a decision that someone somewhere has made. This book is an essential guide for those who want to find goodness along the paths they have chosen in life. In this short work, the author presents a masterful treatment of the subject of the Prophetic sunnah of Istikharah, the supplication for those faced with a decision.
Arabic text, English translation, and commentary of Maulana Muhammad Zakariyya.
Lessons in Islamic History is an essential summary of Shaykh Muhammad Khudari Bak's series of groundbreaking works on Islamic history, in which this pioneering Egyptian historian and scholar of Shari'ah and Arabic literature distils the essence of his three outstanding works on the Prophetic Biography, the Rightly-Guided Caliphs and the Umayyad and 'Abbasid Dynasties.
This book is an English translation of as-Sirat an-Nabawiyyah; a scholarly and thoroughly researched Arabic work of Shaykh Abul-Hasan Ali Nadwi (May Allahs Mercy be upon him). However the title has been taken from the Urdu translation of the said work. In this book, the author has been particularly mindful of the current generation's mindset, taste, understanding and sensibilities. Similarly, he has been entirely considerate of the modern method of research and discourse, so that the content, evidences and style prove to be effective.
Includes 113 mutawatar (massivley transmitted) hadiths along with trqanslation and list of all the narrators of each hadith.
The translated text is the introduction to a large multi-volume work in Arabic called I'la as-Sunan. The original work was a response to the ahle hadith allegation that the school of Imam Abu Hanifah is deprived of hadith. In this introduction, the author pens his methodology for writing the I'la as-Sunan. The author endeavours to deconstruct the false understanding that hadith science is absolute and fixed. He argues that since the science of hadith is not prescriptive in the shariah, no one group can lay claim to it or claim a universal understanding of it. This book will be of interest to students who have a penchant for abstract theories and methods and to the advanced students of hadith and Islamic thoughts.
