Allah called Surah Yusuf the ‘Best of All Stories,’ which He revealed in the Qur’an, the best of all Revelations, to the best of all prophets, our Prophet Muhammad (sws).
The story was revealed to lift his spirits at a time when his sufferings and worries had mounted. This was a time when he had gone through at least a decade of ridicule and rejection in Makkah, a time when he lost his beloved wife and partner, Khadijah, a time when he had lost his dear uncle, Abu Talib.

You will never understand why you’re here if you don’t know the One who brought you here. You will never understand why you were blessed with something, if you don’t know what it means to be a blessing yourself. You will never understand why you’re in pain, if you don’t believe in the virtue of patience. You will never make sense of this life, if you don’t believe in an afterlife. You will never know who you are, if you don’t know who you want to become. You will never know where you are going, if you don’t know where you came from. We live in a world full of suffering which is meant to wake us from our slumber. But if we constantly dwell on what we feel has missed us, we may be missing out on a far greater sense of purpose and self-worth. A life with less confusion and more certainty. A life of meaning where we learn to live in harmony with divine decree, so that we could get to know our Lord who created us and our stories. You may have asked before, why me? But have you ever asked, why not me ?

Designed with Muslim children in mind, this illustrated work introduces young Muslims to the Quran. It is designed almost like a school textbook, with learning points, feature boxes, notes, and even anecdotes to impart context and further explanation. It provides answers to some of our kids’ most challenging questions about their faith, the Creator, and the world around them.
Many of us have lost our way in this life. Some people have given up hope, as they see no way out of their pain, their problems, their failures. Some people carry years of shame and self-hatred. And some live with a deep emptiness, despite worldly success.
But there is hope. And there is always a road back. Just as we were sent on this worldly journey with the capacity to fall, we were also given the capacity to rise. Just as we would bleed, we would also heal. We would be designed with the divine capacity to cope. To survive. To even thrive through the storms. Each and every one of us would be given the God-given potential to see through the darkness. To rise through the cold. To break again and again, and to heal again and again. And then be even more beautiful at the broken parts. This book provides a step-by-step guide for healing these broken parts - our emptiness.

Daily supplications (du’as) divided into seven days, for each day of the week.
The universally accepted traditional prayers have a status beyond compare because the prayers which Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala has revealed, either in the Qur’an or by inspiring them as a direct, first person communication from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala, or by a hidden revelation, spoken by the Beloved Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or taught to some of his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), are by definition more acceptable to Allah: Hence this collection of’ prayers compiled by ‘Ali ibn Sultaan Muhammad al-Qari (d.1014/1605), popularly known as Mullah ‘Ali al-Qari. Mullah Ali Qari has said in his preface that if you read this compilation daily, it is very good. If that is not possible, then it should be read weekly, or monthly, or even once a year; and if even that is not possible then at least once in a lifetime.
Dua’s are in Arabic and English
Format: Hardcover
Through four beautiful narratives (the People of the Cave; the Man with Two Gardens; Musa and Khidr; and Dhu al-Qarnayn), this Surah not only summarizes the whole religion of Islam, but also teaches a number of important lessons.
Beginning with the role and function of the Prophet Muhammed (SAW), it goes on to highlight the need for Muslims to show genuine concern for humanity at large.
The importance of genuine knowledge, and the necessity to take it only from qualified teachers who have taqwa, is also highlighted - showing that the highest form of knowledge is that which is acquired through God - consciousness and utter submission to the Will of Allah (SWT).
The Surah also indicates that believers must always strive against their egos and attribute nothing of the blessings and bounties they possess to their egos or knowhow. One must always remember that Allah is the master of the whole universe and everything that happens in it is under his control, no matter how good, bad or difficult it might appear.

The Qur’an is full of parables. Each one, when its meaning is unpacked and understood, offers wisdom and guidance. Surah Kahf, chapter 18 from the Qur’an, is particularly thought provoking, and Muslims are advised to read it at least once a week.
But why? And what can we gain from it?
In this book Yasir Qadhi leads us through Surah Kahf, unfolding the lines, stories and symbols that have inspired people for over a thousand years: the people of the cave, Prophet Musa’s momentous encounter with Khidr, the two men and their gardens, and Gog and Magog.
And surely We have explained matters in people in the Qur’an in diverse ways, using all manners of parables. (Qur’an 18:54)
Through Yasir Qadhi’s unmistakeable voice, modern Muslims may glimpse some of the Qur’an’s profound meaning.
Say: “If the sea were to become ink to record the Words of my Lord, indeed the sea would all be used up before the Words of my Lord are exhausted…” (Qur’an 18:109)
A delightful book written in a simple manner, featuring the postures of salah for both boys and girls along with recommended recitations.
My first salaah book inspires and encourages children to pray salaah.
Designed to build love and connect with Allah from an early age.

Description
Al-Shama’il al-Muhammadiyya (‘The Sublime Qualities of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ’) is the most famous collection of narrations detailing the moral, physical and spiritual perfections of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Commonly referred to as ‘The Shama’il’ and compiled by the prolific Imam al-Tirmidhi, this perennial masterpiece connects hearts to the Prophet’s blessed being ﷺ.
The Shama’il generously invites us to experience the most detailed and exquisite qualities of the message-bearer—the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This knowledge fundamentally alters, informs, and orients our understanding of the Message he brought. Knowing the Shama’il is a critical pre-requisite to properly understanding Islam in general and the Prophet’s life (Sira) in particular; his beautiful appearance, lifestyle and character provide the ultimate context for developing a deep, holistic appreciation of the Message and the Messenger at the same time. Without understanding the Shama’il, we’re likely to read Islam and the Prophet’s life through the lenses of our own socially-conditioned impressions and assumptions. Instead, the Shama’il leaves a profound and indelible impression that spiritually empowers us to apply Islam to our lives.
Knowing the Shama’il is a tried and true means of filling our hearts with reverence for the Prophet ﷺ, which, in turn, fills our hearts with reverence for his Sacred Law. A form of praise in its own right, it provides a deep look into Prophet’s sublime beauty and serves as a means of connection, veneration and spiritual transformation. The Shama’il offers us tastes of delight and joy, and most importantly, engenders sincere love of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ in our hearts. To spend time with the Shama’il is to praise Allah and remember Him, for it is He who endows His beloved ﷺ with beautiful form and unparalleled character.

Allah has given us the answers. He has taught us how we eat, drink, sleep, behave and live–all to maintain perfect balance and harmony. And yet, when we disrupt Allah’s balance, we contribute to the global epidemic of lifestyle-based chronic diseases affecting our mind, body, spirit and even the planet.
The latest evidence-based research shows that when we live according to Qur’an and Sunnah, we can optimize our brain and body function, unlocking the secrets to optimal physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual health.
Deeds that light the way
So do not ask your Lord when the day of Judgment will be, but ask yourself what deeds have you prepared for that day.
In every moment of the day of Judgment, from the moment you rise from their grave to when you take your place in the assembly.
From when you are brought forth to be held accountable by your Lord, to when you are taken to the scale for the scrolls to be weighed, from when you prepare to cross the bridge to your anticipated arrival at the gates of Paradise.
There are good deeds that You have sent forth that will come to your aid. Deeds that will take you by your hand and testify on your behalf, that will settle your feet and shade you from the scorching heat. That will light your way in the darkness and guide you to the abode of eternal delight.

Our intentions for compiling this book are to inspire an increase in love, knowledge, connection and obedience towards the Prophet ﷺ, by the comprehension of the poems through their English translations.
User-friendly text layout and designLittle or no page turning required per qaṣīda or chapter. Allowing readers to have a greater distraction free experience, whilst also making it easier for drum players to play. Due to the layout of the text, all the mentioned content fits into just 199 pages, making it light and usable too.Additionally, stop signs have also been placed at the end of each qaṣīda, choruses are emboldened, and every couplet has been marked with a glyph of alternating lightness and darkness, making it easy to continually jump between chorus and verse.
New, clear English translations in easy to grasp languageWe worked closely with a team of translators to help express the meanings of the qaṣā’id in clear, easy to grasp language. Although no translation will match the original work, these translations should hopefully help the reader get a better sense of what the original author intended.
Designed to be used as a functioning songbookWe wanted to create something that would be used in gatherings, could have notes written on and marked according to the readers preference. Although much care was placed on the cover and internal design, our aim was to create something that readers would want to use and take with them on a daily basis.
Sacred spiritual poetry is intended to soften our hearts and remind us of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. We have the opportunity through this blessed collection to resemble the Companions who recited poetry directly before our Prophet ﷺ.May Allah Most High place abundant blessings in this endeavour and make it a means for us to experience the reality of the blessed words found in these poems.Shaikh Yaḥyā Rhodus

However, the best way possible which requires no teaching or explanation is to listen to the poems that have been written and compiled by the scholars over many generations.In these poems are spiritual messages that can uplift the listeners, encouraging personal growth. This collection of varied poems from different regions of the Muslim world are sang and listened to in many gatherings of the scholars and broadcast by most Islamic networks that are listened to today.
It is indeed a fantastic collection with translation and transliteration, for those who understand Arabic and those who don’t.Shaikh Aḥmad Bābikar

The name of Salaahuddeen al-Ayyoobi RA has been permanently recorded in the annals of world history. He was one of the greatest leaders and heroes that the world has ever seen. The Muslim Ummah recognises him as the liberator of al-Quds, yet his legacy is much more richer than a single battle or military conquest. He was a pious Muslim, a competent leader, a military genius, a brilliant administrator and an eminent scholar.
Salaahuddeen’s bravery filled the hearts of his enemies with fear, while his compassion with the prisoners and the weak drew their respect. His life was one of piety, justice, forbearance, mercy, bravery, patience, abstinence, compassion, forgiveness, generosity, sacrifice and wisdom.
By studying the fascinating journey of his life, we will learn how he eradicated Shiasm, liberated al-Quds and defeated the Crusaders. Implementing the lessons he taught will inspire us to become better Muslims and to raise the flag of Islam in a world which desperately needs guidance.
