This book uses the methodology created by Hafiz Academy to help readers comprehend the Quran's verses. Over the years, Dr. Hafiz Reedwaan Ismail has effectively implemented this innovative visual learning technique. Research shows that the best way to understand words is by visually associating them with what one already knows. With this approach in mind, we have prepared the following surahs to aid the learning and recitation of the Quran.
Jamila’s grandmother has returned from Hajj with some wondrous Zamzam water! Join Jamila on a storytelling adventure as she learns about this water and how it connects to Hajar – the woman at the heart of Hajj.

We live in a time of complexity and uncertainty within modern life. Whilst the overuse of technology and social media has reduced human interaction in families and neighbourhoods, we have also seen an upsurge of empathy and compassion for fellow human beings during times of difficulty and crises.

Our parental obligation is to help children grow into mature and confident adults with a positive character and good social and life skills. Preparing for Life is a reminder to, particularly, Muslim parents about their unique and entrusted role in preparing their children for life with universal human and Islamic values.

There are many books in English that present Sufi doctrine, but few that can be used as practical travel guides along the Path. Originally written in classical Arabic, this volume is in widespread use among Sufi teachers in Arabia, Indonesia, and East Africa; its devotions, prayers, and practical ethics are invaluable as a guide along the Sufi Way.

Complete Arabic Text with Facing English Translation Imam Ghazali’s Bidayat al-Hidaya is a highly motivational manual detailing the fundamentals of acquiring guidance through God-consciousness (taqwa). Imam Ghazali argues that just as there is an end to this noble objective there is also a beginning to it, which must be made firm for one to achieve success. He then goes on to expound the fundamentals of this “beginning.” While being concise and to-the-point the manual is laid out in the form of a detailed daily timetable providing the reader strong inspiration and much heart-rending counsel. The three sections of this book are on obedience, refraining from disobedience, and the etiquette of companionship with the Creator and with creation. One of Imām Ghazālī’s final works, it embodies a lifetime of learning, experience, and spirituality and can be taken as an introduction to his larger works.
This translation published for the first time with facing Arabic text also includes many notes and transliteration for the supplications contained within. “An excellent translation of an important book on the fundamentals of Muslim piety and etiquette. With an accessible English translation alongside the original Arabic text, this introductory work will be useful for readers interested in exploring the realities of Islamic piety, students of Arabic and educators alike.” Jonathan brown University of Washington Dr. Mashhad Al-Allaf holds a doctoral degree in Modern Philosophy: Science & Metaphysics (1995).

Review
Even though, I haven’t experienced loss of a loved one yet , I was truly humbled reading her book- her words so simple but yet so powerful and soothing . Salatu Sule includes so many verses from the Holy Quran and Hadith , that helped her through this journey of grief . The book offers faith inspired insights about grief and how to build resilience (LetsLearnMama)
Each chapter is very brief, it’s like reading a diary or a long Facebook status, filled with life lessons with relevant verses and hadith (sugarspicewhatevernice)
“One Breath at a Time” by Sister Salatu Sule is a very good read. The challenges of life, the reality, the losses and the way forward! Well written. Maa shaa Allah Tabarakallah I’d recommend it for one and all. Simple, short, well written and beneficial.

One Breath at a Time may be a teeny tiny thing, but it sure does pack a punch! A book about coping with grief and adversity. You might think you don’t need this book because you’ve never lost a loved one or been through a divorce or suffered a life-changing Illness etc, but we all go through testing times and we all try to cope with life’s happenings however we can. This book shows you how to draw on faith for strength and I particularly enjoyed the author’s references to Quranic verses at certain times in her life – it’s clear she’s built a relationship with it to connect so powerfully. We need to be able to do that! (AsmaScribendi)
About the Author
Salat has previously had two books published. A teacher who also has been running the blog www.salatusule.com since 2016.
Islam has been one of the most powerful religious, social, and political forces in history. Over the last 1400 years, from origins in Arabia, a succession of Muslim polities and later empires expanded to control territories and peoples that ultimately stretched from southern France, to East Africa to South East Asia. Yet many of the contributions of Muslim thinkers, scientists, and theologians, not to mention rulers, statesmen and soldiers, have been occluded.
This book rescues from oblivion and neglect some of these personalities and institutions while offering the reader a new narrative of this lost Islamic history. The Umayyads, Abbasids, and Ottomans feature in the story, as do Muslim Spain, the savannah kingdoms of West Africa and the Mughal Empire, along with the later European colonisation of Muslim lands and the development of modern nation-states in the Muslim world.
Throughout, the impact of Islamic belief on scientific advancement, social structures, and cultural development is given due prominence, and the text is complemented by portraits of key personalities, inventions and little known historical nuggets. The history of Islam and of the world's Muslims brings together diverse peoples, geographies, and states, all interwoven into one narrative that begins with Muhammad and continues to this day.

This beautiful presentation of the Prophet Muhammads teachings engages the reader in a moment daily reflection. With 365 traditions covering a whole year, this is a must for every home. An essential companion to the second book “Daily Wisdom: Selections from the Holy Quran”.
Unhealthy addictions and depression are widespread: some of us find the uncertainty and emotional darkness eating away at us. 700 years ago, a diligent Muslim scholar told of a cost-free, universal psychotherapeutic cure, writing: “Happiness comes with a sincere du’a.” He was Ibn Qayim Al Jawziya: his teacher was Ibn Taymiyyah . Riding on the coat-tails of our pious predecessors, we too seek routes to accepted prayers and eternal reward within the tradition of the Holy Qur’an and authentic ahadith (Prophetic sayings). This book builds on our debut A Handbook of Spiritual Medicine and isn’t simply a compilation of recommended du’as. Instead it is a carefully considered framework that aligns our emotions with the most beautiful du’as, all of which have a profound constructive purpose: the aim is to transport us smilingly and with noblest etiquette toward the ma’arifat (higher knowledge of Allah) and istiqaamah (steadfastness) that every Muslim seeks, deep down.
One day, the Prophet Muhammad was describing Khadija’s virtue, and he pointed to the heaven and earth with his finger and stated, Mary, mother of Jesus, is the best of the women of the heavens, and the worthiest woman still living on this earth is Khadija, daughter of Khuwaylid. Khadija’s life is a source of great inspiration to believers, especially women. She is an excellent example of how one can give to the cause of Islam one’s time, energy, wealth and life. Her story is a reminder to believers to live purposeful lives and, in our prayers, we should remember Khadija and the whole family of the Prophet for their sacrifice and dedication. It was precisely their sacrifice, dedication and hard work that made it possible for Islam to reach all the four corners of the world and allowed the Quran to be preserved in its original form. May Allah be pleased with them all. Once when the Prophet Muhammad was in the Cave of Hira with the angel Jibril, or Gabriel, Jibril saw from afar that Khadija was coming towards the Cave. He said to the Prophet: “Khadija is coming here. She has brought some food and water for you.” And then he added: “When she comes in, give her the greetings from her Lord and tell her that there will be a house made of pearls for her in Paradise where there will be neither hardship nor any clamour.” When Khadija arrived, the Prophet said to her: “Here is Jibril. He is giving greetings to you from your Lord and he himself is greeting you.” Khadija replied: “God is peace and He is the source of all peace! May Allah’s peace and blessings be upon you, O Messenger of Allah. And my greeting to Jibril!”
