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.
Best described as 'a comprehensive little helper', this book is meant to come in handy when life gets tough and when you are seeking advice on what to do in any situation where you feel helpless. This guide has been compiled from research from the Qur'an, Sunnah and psychology to assist those looking for help from an Islamic perspective. It includes the famous, relaxation technique, to relieve stress. "A handbook for those rainy days."

Sea Without Shore is a practical manual for those travelling the path of Sufism or Islamic mysticism, which strives, in Junayd’s words, “to separate the Beginninglessly Eternal from that which originates in time,” in a word, to be with the Divine without any relation. The book opens with narratives of five Sufis met by the author in Syria, Jordan, and Turkey whose lives exemplified the knowledge and practice of the Sufi path. The second part is a complete handbook of the method and rule of the Shadhili order of Sufism, transmitted to the author by his spiritual mentor, Sheikh ‘Abd al-Rahman al-Shaghouri–from devotions, dhikr or ‘invocation,’ and metaphysical doctrine, to how a Sufi lives, marries, and earns a living in the modern world. A third part treats wider theological questions such as other faiths and mysticisms, universalism and the finality of Islam, the promise of God to Jews and Christians, evolution and religion, and divine Wisdom and Justice in the face of human suffering. The book provides an indelible portrait of a vibrant mystical tradition spanning seven and a half centuries of endeavor to know the Divine face-to-face. Sheikh Nuh Keller was born in the US in 1954. He read philosophy and classical Arabic at the University of Chicago and UCLA, and became a Muslim in Cairo in 1977. He was authorized as a sheikh in the Shadhili order by Sheikh ‘Abd al-Rahman in 1996 and is the leading authority on traditional Islam in the West. He has studied jurisprudence, hadith, and other subjects with traditional scholars, produced Reliance of the Traveller, the 1st translation of a standard Islamic legal reference in a English to be certified by al-Azhar, the Muslim world’s oldest institution of higher learning. Among his other works and translations are Sufism in Islam, al-Maqasid: Imam Nawawi’s Manual of Islam, Port in a Storm, and an illuminated calligraphic edition of Dala’il al-Khayrat
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

Many years ago, across distant lands and faraway empires, a series of letters were sent to some of the most powerful men on earth. These were no ordinary letters, however- they were from none other than the Last Prophet of God and the message they contained was one for all time.
It was the year 7AH (628AD), and the dawn of a new era for the early Muslims as they welcomed the promise of peace on the horizon. The time was now right. The Prophet (pbuh) decided to invite the wider world to a better way of living.
Messengers were chosen to visit the opulent palaces of the Roman Empire, travel by boat up the Nile to Alexandria, cross vast planes to a Kingdom in Abyssinia and approach the extravagant fortresses of mighty Persia.
The task at hand was monumental for those selected to deliver the message. Reactions to the letters varied in extremes, but all carry equally valuable lessons. Within the preparation, delivery and reactions to these letters, we learn about faith, power, and the human condition. You will see how Letters from a Prophet contains timeless truths just as important and relevant to our lives today, as they were back when they were penned. Join us on a profound journey of discovery…
