📖 Saviours of Islamic Spirit (Tarikh-i Da'wat wa Azimat)
📌 A New Revised and Edited Translation

This book, by the late Indian historian and intellectual, Shaykh Abu ’l-Hasan ‘Ali Nadwi, is a story of the ebbs and flows of this Umma; the challenges, the setbacks, and most importantly, the successes.

It is a poignant story of the accomplishments, attainments, and triumphs that propelled the Umma forward. It is a story told through extraordinary figures: the revivers, men of courage, vigor, and zeal, an elect group who were graced with divine determination to safeguard the spirit of God’s religion on earth.

In other words, they were the saviours of the Islamic spirit.

📌Imam Al-Ghazali on Self-Delusion

Imam al-Ghazali delves into the core of our predicament by exposing undesirable qualities of the heart, such as arrogance, pride, ostentation, and the pursuit of fame. The importance of ikhlas (sincerity) is the root of what he is alluding to.

The text examines the various religious activities that take place in a believers life, be they the construction of masjids, the delivery of lectures, charitable contributions in the name of Allah ﷻ, or the recitation of the Qur'an. Imam al-Ghazali's articulation of these matters persuades the reader to remain vigilant in every aspect of the Religion.

His overarching theme throughout the book revolves around the term ghurür which, in the context of this work, can be translated as self-deception. As seen in many of his other writings, he provides compelling examples that resonate with all readers.

"In this book, I seek to provide a guide to the wisdom we need to attain felicity in the two domains (the spiritual and the worldly). I have taken the middle path between brevity and lengthy disquisitions. I have struck a balance between the meticulousness of scholarly discourse and the emotional refinement of literature. Nothing in it, therefore, is either too difficult to be understood nor too subtle to be visualized.

I have relied on the Book of God for the principles it provides and the exalted example of His Messenger. I have then used the sayings of the sages, the aphorisms of the masters of rhetoric and the sayings of poets because the human spirit finds comfort in variety and is easily bored with monotony."

✨ Be mindful of Allah and He will be mindful of you ✨

This book is a commentary of the invaluable advice of the Prophet ﷺ to ʿAbdullāh ibn ʿAbbās (Raḍiya ’llāhu ‘an-hu), which begins with the words, ‘Be mindful of Allah and He will be mindful of you.’

The famed eighth-century traditionist Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī takes the reader on a thought-provoking journey through the meanings that can be derived from the hadith, in a manner that is scholarly and comprehensive, yet also easily understood.

He explains that the hadith ‘contains great counsel and comprehensive principles from the most important and most significant aspects of the religion’, such as the rights we owe Allah ﷻ and what He has promised to give us if we fulfil those rights.

Ibn Rajab supports his arguments with verses of the Qur’an, additional narrations of the Prophet ﷺ (whose transmissions are analysed), sayings of the Companions (Raḍiya ’llāhu ‘an-hum) and their followers, and insightful stories and poems.

As a brief but expansive look at some of Islam’s fundamental tenets, it is an essential addition to every Muslim’s library.

💡 A timeless lesson from 'Imam Sha'rani's Code of Companionship'.

It’s foolish to think we’re immune from what others go through. What someone else faces could easily be our test tomorrow. Be mindful—what’s possible for them is equally possible for you.

This reflection serves as a reminder for humility and empathy. 🌱

• Is it permitted to transport the body abroad for burial?

• What can the heirs do for their deceased loved ones after burial?
• What are the etiquette for visiting graves?
• Is the posthumous donation of reward (isal al-thawab) permissible?

Let’s reflect on a profound statement by Masihullah Khan: "Without tasawwuf, a Muslim cannot truly be described as a perfect believer." This statement touches on the very essence of what it means to live a life of faith and devotion. But what exactly is tasawwuf, and why is it considered so integral to achieving the status of a perfect believer?

Tasawwuf, often translated as Sufism, is the branch of Islamic knowledge that focuses on the purification of the heart. It is about cultivating inner virtues such as sincerity, humility, patience, and deep love for Allah. Essentially, tasawwuf is the science of refining one’s soul, eliminating spiritual impurities, and aligning one’s innermost being with the teachings of Islam. It is an inward journey toward spiritual excellence or ihsan, which means worshipping Allah as if you see Him, knowing that even if you do not see Him, He sees you.

During the blessed time of the Prophet ﷺ there was no need for a separate department or category for tasawwuf. The Prophet ﷺ was a perfect embodiment of all aspects of Islam, teaching his companions in a comprehensive manner that included both the outward actions and the inward states of the heart. His life was a holistic guide that fused external acts of worship with the internal purification of the soul.

However, as the Muslim community expanded and time passed, scholars began to specialise in different areas of Islamic knowledge to preserve the vast sciences of Islam and provide deeper understanding. They divided the study of the religion into distinct departments such as Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), Aqidah (Islamic creed), and Tafsir (exegesis). Tasawwuf emerged as the dedicated branch that focused on nurturing the soul and purifying the heart, emphasizing the importance of inner character and spiritual consciousness.

Approaching the Qur'anic Sciences

This publication presents a new translation of M***i Muhammad Taqi Usmani's original Urdu work on the Sciences of the Qur'an, titled Ulum al-Quran.

Additionally, the work robustly tackles modernist critiques originating within the Muslim world.

This new edition features a meticulously revised retranslation of the original by Ml Ziyad Batha () and Ml Ibraheem ibn Muhammad. The inclusion of notations incorporates the latest research in Qur'anic sciences from scholars such as Shaykh Dr. Sohaib Saeed (), Shaykh Yousef Wahb (), and Ustädh Sharif Randhawa.

Often, we are quick to judge others based on their current state or past actions, but we must remember that we do not know their true standing in the sight of Allah.

Someone who appears distant from righteousness today may surpass us in the end, just as someone who seems virtuous might falter at the last moment.

Therefore, we should never consider ourselves superior to others. Instead, we should strive to see ourselves as constantly in need of improvement and guidance.
