How to Draw Close to Allah is an original IGP summary of Imam ʿAbdullāh Sirāj al-Dīn al-Ḥusaynī’s Drawing Near to Allah: Its Excellence, Method, and Stage. It is a profound exploration into the spiritual journey of a believer, aimed at guiding Muslims towards attaining closeness to Allah. This book delves into the concept of divine nearness, portraying it as the highest goal a believer can aspire to. Through detailed explanations supported by references from the Qur’an and Sunnah, Imam ʿAbdullāh Sirāj al-Dīn provides a clear roadmap for how to draw closer to Allah.
This book emphasizes the transformative nature of acts of worship, which are more than just ritualistic practices. They include prayer (Ṣalāh), which is depicted as a means of communication with Allah that purifies the soul and deters from indecency; almsgiving (Zakāh), which is presented as a way to purify one’s wealth and soul from miserliness; fasting (Ṣawm), portrayed as a shield against sin fostering self-discipline and gratitude; and pilgrimage (Ḥajj), described as an ultimate act of submission and humility symbolizing the believer’s migration towards Allah. Each act of worship is shown to have unique spiritual benefits and effects, purifying and elevating the believer. The text explains that these acts transform the believer, elevating them from mere existence to divine companionship.

Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (the Truthful) ranks among the most important and influential figures in Islamic history. Throughout his life he provided an exemplary example to all those around him. This book brings to life the remarkable character of Abu Bakr from his birth onwards through the early years of Islam.
The second caliph of the Muslims and a close Companion of the noble Prophet, Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, strengthened Islam through his courage and actions. This book tells the story of Umar for young readers presenting his key achievements and milestones in his life. Umar ibn al-Khattab wandered the streets at night to find people in need, he personally helped the poor and weak and was never tempted by the luxuries or wealth a leader could be expected to enjoy. The leader of the world’s largest empire, he rejected all forms of ostentation, living in a small hut and eating mainly bread and olive oil. His selflessness and modesty inspired many people to accept Islam. After the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, he was the greatest example for believers to follow
This book brings to life the great caliph Uthman, the embodiment of the tenets of Islam and an inspiration and example for all Muslims today. He was described by the beloved Prophet as the most generous, the most magnanimous, and the most modest of his Companions. He resisted torture and pressure from his family to become one of the first people to embrace Islam. He was one of the staunchest supporters of the noble Prophet. Uthman ibn Affan was one of the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs of the Muslim state. He devoted his life to Islam and embodied the virtues of the true religion. Uthman was always the first to respond to the call for help. A wealthy merchant, he constantly donated his wealth, enlarging the Medina mosque, buying a well for the people, feeding and equipping the army and helping the poor and needy. Despite his great riches, Uthman lived a simple life. His only aim was to achieve the pleasure of Allah and His Prophet. As a reward for his many good deeds, he was one of the few people to receive the promise of Paradise whilst he was still alive.
Ali ibn Abi Talib was the first child to accept Islam, and the third Muslim after Khadija and Abu Bakr. He lived with the Prophet from a young age, marrying his daughter Fatima, with whom he had two sons. Ali became the fourth caliph and performed his duties honorably, always putting the needs of the Muslim community before his own.
The legacy of the greatest teacher the world has known, the greatest man to ever walk the Earth, the Messenger of Allah, is attested to by the greatness of his students: the Ṣaḥābah. None more so than his four successors, the four men famed as the Rightly Guided Caliphs. The Blessed Prophet’s words and deeds have reached us from across the centuries and still inspire billions. It was these men who were charged with carrying those teachings to others, and within one short century spread them across the breadth of the world.
This book collects the teachings of these great men; their words and their actions; how they lived and how they died. Each of them was a giant upon whose shoulders the great scholars and sages; the orators and leaders; the warriors and heroes; the ascetics and mystics in every age of this Ummah have built their places in the halls of history. Each of them was shaped for greatness by the blessed hands of the Beloved in a singular and unique manner. Together, they built a community, an empire, and a legacy that shall inspire this Ummah until the end of time.
One should never underestimate the power of du’a as it can change your destiny. The Prophet Muhammad used to make certain du’as in certain situations, but what if one feels that they are not worthy of calling upon Allah or just simply don’t know how. When you look through the guidance of the Prophet Muhammad, you don’t just find the words that match your situation, you also find a beautiful approach to your Lord as a whole. When you understand your Creator better and learn how to call upon Him like the prophet Muhammad did, you will also understand the world around you better and become more focussed. This short book includes 26 wonderful du’as (supplications) in Arabic with English translation and related commentary, as taught to us by our beloved Prophet Muhammad.

LáYínká, if you died today, what would your children have to say about you?’
This was the question LáYínká Sánní asked herself when she hit rock bottom years ago. It was this question — and the uncomfortable answer that followed it — that inspired her to embark on a deeply personal journey of self discovery, learning and, ultimately, homecoming.
Honest, tender and wise, A Beautiful Homecoming is a self-help book for every Muslim woman who has become buried beneath her labels — mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend, employee — and who wants to reconnect with who she is and finally embrace all parts of herself.
Drawing on her work as a transformation coach, her own personal experiences and her faith, LáYínká Sánní offers a powerful love letter from one striving woman to another, an invitation to step into a new internal reality, and a practical guide to transforming how you view both the world and yourself — forever.
