When The Moon Split

When the Moon Split - A Biography of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). 

The biography of the Prophet is a very noble and exalted subject by which Muslims learn about the rise of Islam, and how Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was chosen by Allah to receive the divine revelation. You also learn about the hardships the Prophet (PBUH) and his companions faced, and how they eventually succeeded with Allah's help. This book adds to where Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum left off. Its clear, yet precise narration of the life of the Prophet makes it a great compliment to Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum. 

Over 6 months of editing, a master piece on the life of the Prophet, this book explains the life of the Prophet in the light of Authentic Ahadith and the Qur'an.

An excellent easy to read book that covers the whole life of the Prophet in a novel type fashion. If you are looking for extensive detail, try Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum.

Atlas Of The Qur'an (Places. Nations. Landmarks)

An Authentic Collection of the Qur'anic Information with Maps, Tables and Pictures

This Atlas is new in its subject, a subject that has not been touched before. It helps whoever recites the Qur'an or studies it to specify the locations mentioned by the Noble Verses, and to mark those places of ancient people mentioned in the Qur'Gn. This is besides locating areas where the incidents of the prophetic Seerah occurred. Eventually the diligent reader will easily recognize those places, learn about them, and take heed of them while reciting. 

Eventually the diligent reader will easily recognize those places, learn about them, and take heed of them while reciting. The Atlas has also revealed obscure places we used to pass through inattentively, like the site where Nuh's Ark settled, the site of the curved Sand-hills {Al Ahqah}, the cave of the young faithful men, the houses of median, the site of Sodom and other places determined by the Atlas depending on reliable sources. 

Thus the Atlas eliminates all the guessing and the fantasies we used to encounter when reciting the Noble Quran, and takes us to the specific place.

Muhammad As If You Can See Him

This little book describes the beloved Prophet of Islam so intimately that it literally is as if you see him in front of you. The author uses incidents in the life of Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him) to paint a detailed and very personal picture of the man who awoke the world with his message from Allah. The Prophet’s qualities and personality truly come to life in this very readable account, making the novice to Islam eager to know even more about him, and making the Muslim love him even more.

This book was translated into English by Faisal ibn Muhammad Shafeeq.

From the translator:
Muhammad: As If You Can See Him is author Â’id al-Qarni’s follow-up to his recent best-sellers Don’t Be Sad and You Can Be the Happiest Woman in the World. It is yet another uplifting spiritual journey that is aimed at inspiring readers to grow in their love for the greatest of all prophets: Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him).

Al-Qarni’s own personal devotion to the Prophet’s noble character makes for an inspiring read. In each chapter of this book, Shaykh al-Qarni discusses an individual characteristic of the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) in depth, allowing for a focused understanding of his personality. Readers would do well to note that this book is not a biography, but rather a sincere tribute to the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him). It is not a book that should be studied or over-analyzed, but one that should be read with awe and a sincere attachment to the greatest of all of Allah’s created beings – our beloved Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him).

The Prophet Muhammad: The Best of All Husbands

In marriage, it often happens that we come across a situation in which things seem to be going haywire, and we wonder what would have been the ideal stance and the best way to handle this problem. For Muslims, the best stance and the best way is that of the Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him). Allah has taught us that this is how we should seek to resolve our conflicts:
{If you differ in anything among yourselves refer it to Allah and His Messenger if you do believe in Allah and the Last Day: that is best and most suitable for final determination.} (Qur’an 4: 59)
Our Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) was a husband to eleven women, each of whom has revealed to us her personal impressions of some or the other aspect of his exemplary personality. With special attention to the many different ways in which the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) proved himself the best husband, the author guides us, with the utmost gentleness, in how we can improve our own marital relationships.
This book is a must-read for all married couples—and for any Muslim man or woman who is contemplating marriage—who wish to achieve satisfaction in their personal lives. It has been translated here into English by Najwa Jaffer.

Stories Of The Prophets

In this book, the stories of the prophets have been compiled from 'Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah' (The Beginning and the End) which is a great work of the famous Muslim exegete and historian Ibn Kathir and has a prominent place in the Islamic literature. The stories of the prophets and all the events in their lives have been supported by the Qur'anic Verses and the Sunnah (traditions) of the Prophet (S). Wherever it was necessary, other sources have also been reported for the sake of historical accounts, but on such places a comparative study has been made to prove the authenticity of the sources. Ibn Kathir has reproduced the views and interpretations of all the great exegetes of the Qur'an of his time. The systemic narratives of the Stories of the Prophets have been written in chronological order which renders a historical style to the book.
 
Allah the Most Exalted says in the Qur'an:
  • 'We are relating unto you the most beautiful of stories in that what We have revealed to you from the Qur'an, though before it you were from among those who were not aware of them.' (12:3)
  • 'We have indeed sent aforetime Messengers before you, of them there are some whose stories We have related to you, and whose stories We have not related to you...' (40:78)
  • 'We relate to you the important news of their story in truth...' (18:13)
  • 'And all that We relate to you of these stories of the Messengers, We strengthen with them your heart. Through them there come to you the truth as well as admonition and reminder to all those who believe.' (11:120)
  • 'There is, indeed, in their stories lessons for people endowed with understanding. It is not any invented tale, but a confirmation of what went before it, and a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy to the people who believe.' (12:111)
  • '...so relate the stories, perhaps they may reflect.' (7:176)

The Sealed Nectar

A complete authoritative book on the life of Prophet Muhammad (S) by Sheikh Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarkpuri. The Sealed Nector was honored by the World Muslim League as first prize winner book. Whoever wants to know the whole life style of the Prophet in detail must read this book.

Muhammad (S) is the Messenger of Allah, and those who are with him, are severe against the disbelievers, and merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and falling down prostrate (in prayer), seeking bounty from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. The mark of them (i.e. of their Faith) is on their faces (fore heads) from the traces of prostration (during prayers). This is their description in the Taurah (Torah). But their description in the Injeel (Gospel) is like a (sown) seed which sends forth its shoot, then makes it strong, and becomes thick and it stands straight on its stem, delighting the sowers, that He may enrage the disbelievers with them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous good deeds, forgiveness and a mighty reward (Paradise). (Al-Fath: 29)

The Prophet Muhammad (S) said: "The example of guidance and knowledge with which Allah has sent me is like abundant rain falling on the earth. Some of which was fertile soil that absorbed rain-water and brought forth vegetation and grass in abundance. (And) another portion of it was hard and held the rain-water and Allah benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking (making their animals drink from it) and to irrigate the land for cultivation. (And) a portion of it was barren which could neither hold the water nor bring forth vegetation (then that land gave no benefits). The first is the example of the person who comprehends Allah's Religion (Islam) and gets benefit (from the knowledge) which Allah (Azawajal) has revealed through me (the Prophet) and learns and then teaches it to others. The (last example is that of a) person who does not care for it and does not take Allah's Guidance revealed through me (he is like that barren land)." (Al-Mukarramah)
