LIVING & DYING WITH GRACE : COUNSELS OF HADRAT ALI     
Paperback - 120 pages                                               Translated into English by Thomas Cleary

Description of Living and Dying with Grace

Living and Dying with Grace is a book of aphoristic Sufi teachings on how to make one's way in the world—especially on how to bring spiritual insight to the affairs of daily life. Sufism, the mystical branch of Islam, contains a vast body of knowledge concerning the inner development of the complete human being. Among the greatest of Sufi masters, Hadrat 'Alî (598-661 CE) May Allah be pleased with him, cousin and son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad May Allah Shower His Mercy upon him, is regarded as a paragon of compassion and virtue and a master of both exoteric and esoteric knowledge. He was not only a great warrior, statesman, and scholar, but also a devoted husband and father.

  

Success in this life, 'Alî teaches, is bestowed on those who maintain generosity, intelligence, perseverance, integrity, and calm reflection. As for success in the hereafter, 'Alî says, "God, the Glorified, admits to Paradise anyone, at will, for truthfulness of intention and of innermost thoughts."

  

This book contains four hundred of Hadrat 'Alî's May Allah be pleased with him teachings, showing how people can use the everyday realities of their lives to cultivate wisdom and well-being, both temporal and eternal, offering a path to living and dying with grace.

 Love of the Prophet Muhammad's Family                 Translated by: Mawlana Waseem al-Ashrafi

 Muhabbat al-Ahl al-Bayt            Paperback -72 pages

 
This book is the English translation of a speech made Shaykh al Islam Sayyad Muhammad Madani Ashrafi al-Jilani. It also has accompanying urdu at the rear for non-English speakers.

A small extract from the book :  The Beloved Prophet Peace & Blessings upon Him saw the nature of the Ahl al Bayt, their conversations and their character. There was great confidence in the Ahl al Bayt by the Prophet Peace & Blessings upon Him and therefore He thought that when the ummah is in the grasp of their love then whatever I require from the ummah will be obtained. In reality the ummah will become the ummah of true Islam. Therefore, the Beloved Prophet Peace & Blessings upon Him thought that it should be unequivocally said to His ummah that if you believe in my favours upon you, then give me in return your love of my Ahl al Bayt.

The Tragedy of Karbala                          
  Booklet 27 pgs,  
                                                                                    by Musharraf Hussain  

  

The tragedy of Karbala (61AH / 680CE) was an incident from over 1300 years ago, yet its still fresh in the minds of the Muslims. You may wonder why?

 
Perhaps because Imam Hussain
Allah be pleased wth him was the grandson of the Beloved Prophet May Allah bless him & grant him peace?   

Or because the forces of oppression were very brutal?

  

Perhaps because it was a great Jihad?   

Perhaps it taught the Muslims to be determined to establish the truth and never to compromise with forces of evil.

 AL-ARBA'IN : On the Duty of Loving the Ahl al-Bayt 

Small Paperback - 69 pages                                                     by Muhammad Ibn Jaffar al-Kattani   

English translation by Safaruk Zaman Chowdhury

Collection Of Forty Hadiths - On the Duty of Loving the Noble Family of the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)

  

In this collection of 42 hadith, al-Hafiz al-Kattani May Allah be pleased with him tackles a subject that has been neglected by modern Islam and yet is one that lies at the core of the religion, namely, the love of the noble family of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace). Al-Hafiz al-Kattani demonstrates categorically that to love the family of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) is an integral part of Sunni Islam and a foundational attitude of the believer.  

  

Muhammad Ibn Jafar al-Kattani - Al-Hafiz Abu 'Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ja'far al-Kattani, May Allah be pleased with him, (b. 1273 AH) received his early religious education in his native Morocco, then travelled to Syria and the Hijaz to continue his studies with many of leading scholars of his time. He was a specialist of hadith but also mastered other sciences including Islamic jurisprudence. He was deeply involved in the political struggle against colonialism, and was a great support to the legitimate Muslim rulers.

  

REVIEW :“An excellent work on an important subject which every Muslim should read. The virtues of Ahlu al-Bait is a subject which has been neglected in the last few decades; I thank the translator for his efforts and congratulate Turath Publishing on producing it.” --- Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubie

  The History of Karbala    by Abu Ammar  
    Paperback  - 78 pages  

 
There are several reasons for writing this booklet. My main aim is to clarify the rituals performed during the first Islamic month, Muharram.

During this month the
Shi'ah (a sect) beat themselves on their chest with knives to show that they are mourning for Imam Husain May Allah be pleased with him. But the truth is that it was the shi'as of Kufa and Basra who invited Imam Husain Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu and then left him, in Karbala, to be martyred. --- Abu Ammar

At the end of the book, there is the "poetic adages" which I have translated without keeping the rhyme, but meaning, as much as possible.

The Blessed Imam and the wretched Yazeed

 Paperback - 120 pages                  

An Analysis of the two Characters in the Tragedy of Karbala  

by Allama Shai'i Okarvi, rahmatullahi 'alayhi.

Compiled and translated by: Muhammad Sajid Younis

From the Back Cover  : Less than 50 years after the Beloved Prophet's, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam's, passing away, in the year 61 Hijri, his beloved grandson Sayyadina Husayn, was callously murdered alongwith his family and freinds, including his six month old son. After being taken prisioners and their veils ripped-off, the grand-daughters of the Beloved Prophet, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, were paraded through the streets. Then the Prophet's sacred City of Madinah was attacked, companions and their offspring were murdered and their houses looted. The pure and chaste women of the Prophet, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam's, neighbourhood were raped and the Prophet, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam's, Mosque was defacated such that no prayer took place therein for three days. After that the same army beseiged and attacked Makkah, the sacred sanctuary, and the Ka'aba was stoned and its cloth set on fire.

All of this was not perpetrated by a foreign or warring infidel army, but was the work of the supposed Islamic army of the 'Caliph' Yazeed. For these shameful and despicable acts Yazeed has been admonished and vilified throughout Islamic history. Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal said ''Can anyone who believes in Allah have Yazeed as a friend?!''

However with a lack of historical knowledge amongst the Muslims some have recently tried to rewrite it and present Yazeed in a positive light and criticise Imam Husayn, May Allah be pleased with him.This book aims to provide comprehensive evidence and rebukes any such misconception so ensuring the ordinary Muslim does not fall prey to these vile attempts and stays upon the teachings of the pious predecessors.

-------------------

  

'The Blessed Imam and the Wretched Yazeed' analyses the character of Imam Husayn, Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu, and Yazeed and aims to provide the authentic Ahl as-Sunnah w'al-Jama'at viewpoint on the issue.  This is a translation of the famous Urdu book 'Imam Paak aur Yazeed Pleedh' by Khateeb e Pakistan, Hadrat Allama wa Mawlana Shafi'i al-Okarvi'i, Rahmatullahi 'alayhi.

The book serves two purposes: It refutes the claims of the Shi'a that Sunni's support Yazeed and are against Imam Husayn, Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu, and it also refutes the enemies of the Ahl al-Bayt who slander Imam Husayn, Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu, and praise Yazeed.
