Imaam Ahmad Ridaa Khan by Mawlaana Kawsar Niazi
A Versatile Personality [ Paperback - 34 Pages ]
Foreward by M.Bana :
''This treatise was presented as a paper by the Late Mawlaana Kawsar Niazi, ex.Member of the Senate and Federal Minister of Pakistan at a conference in Karachi. The conference was convened by Idaarah Tahqeeqat-e-Imaam Ahmad Ridaa of Karachi to honour and render tribute to the greatest Islamic Scholar ever to emerge in the Indo-Pak Sub-continent - the Mujaddid of Islaam Aa'laa Hadrat Imaam Ahmad Ridaa Khaan, 'alayhi al Rahmah wa al Ridwaan. It must be borne in mind that Mawlaana Kawsar Niazi is in no way connected to the school of thought of A'laa Hadrat Imaam Ahmad Ridaa 'alayhi al Rahman, on the contrary some of his tutors were Mawlavi Mawdoodi of Jamaat Islami, Mawlavi Idrees Kaandhaylawee Deobandi, Mawlavi Ubaydul Haq Nadwi and others. Therefore, the Mawlaana's treatise replete with praises, glorification and appreciation for Aa'laa Hadrat 'alayhir rahman certainly cannot be discounted as bias or partisan. He has presented his subject as he saw it, independently, objectively and devoid of any prejudice or jealousy.
This 'must have' book is written in two sections half English and half Urdu.

AHMAD RAZA KHAN BARELWI : In the Path of the Prophet Hardback - 155 pages
Makers of the Muslim World Series - (Import) Printed & bound in India to a very high western standard.
The Book: IMAM AHMAD RAZA KHAN (1856—1921CE), the leader of the twentieth-century Barelwi's, was a scholar of Islamic law and a Sufi mystic in British India. His vision of what it meant to be a good Muslim was built on devotion to the Prophet Muhammad (May Allah bless him and grant him peace) and to following the Prophetic sunna (tradition) as he interpreted it. The Barelwi movement continues to attract a large following both in South Asia and wherever South Asian Muslims have migrated, particularly in Britain.
This book examines the life and thought of Ahmad Riza Khan May Allah be pleased with him in the context of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century British Indian history, and assesses his impact on contemporary reformist Muslim movements. Accessible yet authoritative, it features a glossary, chronology and guide to further reading, and will prove an indispensable resource for readers of all backgrounds.

The Shadowless Prophet Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam Booklet - 44 pages by Imam-e-Ahl al-Sunnat A'laHadrat Shah Imam Ahmad Raza al-Qadiri
Translated by Shaykh Abdul Hadi al-Qadiri al-Radwi
The author of 'The Shadowless Prophet', the great Mujaddid & Muhaddith, A'la Hadrat Barelwi 'alayhir rahman has written and researched a topic that one would indeed find immensely interesting. He has endeavoured to dispel doubts and reservations about whether the Great Prophet of Islam May Allah Bless him & grant him peace possessed a shadow or not, and after reading through this treatise, one would fathom that any shadow of doubt that diverts the intellect away from upholding the glorious status of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad May Allah Bless him & grant him peace is dispelled, and the light of Iman and reason overshadows all misconceptions.
The Beloved Habeeb May Allah Bless him & grant him peace, who is the light of the universe and one whose very existence glows with Divine Radiance and Luminance, from whom even the sun and the moon, nay, and the entire creation draws its 'light' certainly did not possess a shadow! One must recall the words of the great Sufi Master, Sayyid Abu al-Husain Ahmad-e-Nuri al-Husaini 'alayhir rahmah, eulogising the Great Prophet of Islam May Allah Bless him & grant him peace aptly says in 'Siraj al-'Awaarif.' ...
'His noble person is everywhere in the universe and everything in the universe emanates from him. He is the origin of everything and everything came into being because of him. Everything in the Universe of Allah has been given to him, everything turns to him and he is everything.' How, then, would a shadow emanate from his holy personage of the noble Prophet May Allah Bless him & grant him peace when he is so unique and there is no other creation like him? In the words of the great Imam and Mujaddid 'alayhir rahman, how can there be anyone like him 'whose matchless and stunning beauty decorates the entire universe, so much so that the Divine Pen (Qalam) of Qudrah drew his portrait and permanently retired from recording any similarity.'
It is only those who do injustice to their own souls and who do not fear any retribution from the Sublime Creator who say that he was just an 'ordinary man' and 'like our big brother'.
We present this brief work to all those who are interested in gaining true knowledge of Islam; and we ask Almighty Allah to help us benefit from what we learn, and to learn that which will benefit us, and to protect us from knowledge that is not beneficial, and from deeds not acceptable to Him.

THE PATH TO MUSLIM RECOVERY : An Answer to a Question in 1912 Booklet - 31 pages by Aala Hadrat Shah Imam Ahmad Raza Khan al-Barelwi Translated into English by Dr Muhammad Haroon
Synopsis: Today the Muslim World faces many problems from within itself and outside of its community. This book is a solution to those problems, proposed in 1912 by one of the greatest Muslims of Modern Times, Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi (Rahmatullahi alayh), who was so great that he was called the Reviver (Mujaddid) of the Islamic Century for his work.
When the West came to dominate the Muslim World, many Muslims deserted Islam, and thought they would rise to the top of Western society by political campaigns and by getting good degrees at Western Universities , to get good jobs with the non-Muslims! In India these groups built non-Muslim Colleges and Universities, and went in for nationalistic campaigns, to get the mass of the Muslims behind them, especially by all manner of phoney “solidarity” campaigns with Muslims around the World, such as the Turks.
In this book Imam Ahmad Raza Khan May Allah be pleased with him proposed his solution. The solidarity campaigns achieved nothing. And the Muslims who tried to get good jobs with the non-Muslims were the subject of systematic prejudice and discrimination. The Muslims should, he thought, instead form their own society, as an island in the wider society, by handling all their own legal business themselves, by buying from and selling to each other, by forming their own Islamic Banks, and by developing Islamic Knowledge. This would develop a really 'Islamic' Community, and the culture to develop it further. This policy of developing Islam as an island , had been the policy of Sunni Islam ever since the collapse of Islamic Rule with the decline of the Caliphate. Imam Raza thus continued a thousand year old tradition. As for sending money to the Turks, they should send the millions of rupees contributed to build a secular university!

The Necessity of Zakat & the Prophibition of Funeral Feasts Booklet - 34 pages by Aala Hadrat Shah Imam Ahmad Raza Khan al-Barelwi
Translated into English by Dr. Abdul Naim Azizi
This book is yet another work of the great Muhaddith of Bareilly; Imam Ahmad Raza Khan May Allah be pleased with him translated into English for the benefit of all those who wish to know about the true Islam.
Description : In this book Imam Ahmad Raza Khan May Allah be pleased with him gives the Islamic Ruling on Zakat; (which is the compulsory charitable donation which every Muslim with enough wealth must make), and on the prohibition of expensive and wasteful feasting during the time when funerals are taking place.
Imam Ahmad Raza above all brings out the purely religious aspect of Zakat, and shows its spiritual benefit as the performance of an Absolute Command of the King of Kings. Imam Ahmad Raza also shows how it will build up the community. He explains how the burden of Zakat may be made lighter, for Islam is an easy religion! The wasting of money on funerals squandered money that could be better spent establishing and increasing the Muslim Community’s economy.

Synopsis: There are some people who claim a wish to re-establish the caliphate, but do they know anything about the real issue of the Caliphate? These people want to seize power so that all Muslims follow them directly, in order that they can then mislead them. We warn all Muslim brothers and sisters to completely ignore the group known as Hizb at-Tahrir. The real aim of Hizb at-Tahrir is not to establish the Caliphate but to grab power and be the sole authority.

Devotional Islam & Politics in British India
- Ahmad Riza Khan Barelwi 1870 - 1920 NEW EDITION Paperback - 365 pages by Usha Sanyal
Product Description
Indian Muslims in the 19th century lived in an era of great political, social and economic change brought about by colonial rule. North Indian scholars of the Islamic sciences attributed the Muslim loss of political power to moral weaknesses within their own community. This study examines the ways in which one important school of theologians attempted to shape the renewal of their community, and is based on a close examination of the works of its leading scholar, Ahmed Riza Khan al-Barelwi May Allah be pleased with him.
"Students, teachers, historians, and policy makers on South Asia should read this indispensable research."---Religious Studies Review
Imam Ahmad Riza Khan al-Barelwi May Allah have mercy on him, (1856 –1921 CE) was a major Sunni (Ahl as-Sunnah w'al Jama'ah) Muslim scholar in North India at the height of British rule in India. In his legal writings (fatawa), he laid out a clear vision of how Muslims should conduct themselves in the absence of political power. He advised his followers to follow the ‘Sunnah’ or ‘path’ of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad May Allah bless him and grant him peace in all they said and did. However, there were major differences in the interpretation of what, in practical terms, this meant, and his views were not accepted by other muslims of the time, especially the religious ''scholars'' of Deoband.

After every Prayer and at other times, he recites this Verse of the Noble Qur'an, '' Peace and Blessings be upon you, O Messenger of Allah ta'ala, and I seek for your shi'fa'at (Intercession)! ''

Kindly enlighten us regarding this issue, in accordance with the Islamic Shariah. May the Mercy of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, be upon you, on the Day of Judgement.

Mawlana Ahmad Raza Khan Barelwi - Reviver of the Islamic Spirit (1856 - 1921 CE)
Paperback/Booklet - 32 pages by Dr Musharraf Hussain al-Azhari
Preface - '' To introduce a personality in the Muslim world who is regarded as a symbol of the traditional, balanced and orthodox interpretation of our beautiful way of life - Islam, is no small task.
Based around the scholarly interpretation of the Qur'an and the Prophetic Sunnah, together with Sufi practice, the Ahl al-Sunnah w'al Jama'ah [the greater mass of the ummah who followed the Sunnah] began to take shape in the 1880's to revive the Islamic spirit which was being corrupted in the Indian sub-continent as a result of the British Rule, of extremism and rising cults within the region.
The leading light of this 'Islamic Revival' was a dynamic individual called 'Ala Hadrat, Maulana Shah Ahmad Riza Khan May Allah be pleased with him. The adjective 'Ala Hadrat' means 'great person' and is a fitting title for the Imam, who was a Scholar, a Hafiz, a Qari, a Mufti, a Mufassir and a Muhaddith. This multi talented and multi dimensional man of God had a great and vast depth & breadth of knowledge in many subjects, like religious sciences, philosophy, economy, astronomy, and mathematics. ''

Noor by al-Shaykh Imam Ahmad Raza Khan
Paperback/Booklet - 64 pages
Translated into English by : Dr Abdul Naimi Aziz.
Published by : The Raza Academy.
This book has been translated from urdu to make available for the general reader the topic of Noor. There has been agreement in the Muslim Ummah that all the Prophets of Allah Almighty were specially chosen people and no other people can be equal to them. This is particularly the case for the Final Prophet, the Beloved of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, the Prophet Muhammad, May Allah bless him and grant him peace. The Prophet Muhammad May Allah bless him and grant him peace, was created by Allah ta'ala from His Noor before He created anything.
This book is a refutation of those misguided sects (the deniers) who try to lower the pure and noble status of the Beloved of Allah, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam.
Qadi Iyadh al-Maliki Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu states: “The statement which has been made regarding the Messenger of Allah, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, not possessing a shadow in the brightness of the sun or in the moonlight, is due to the fact that he was light (nur).” (al-Shifa, p. 462, no. 1126) Ash Shifa of Qadi Iyadh

Salaam-e-Raza by AlaHadrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Barelwi Hardback 140 pages
English Translation and Commentary by Muhammad Riaz Qadiri
Salaam-e-Riza is a unique masterpiece of eulogy towards the Beloved Prophet Muhammad, May Allah bless him and grant him peace. It is considered a ''Qasidah Burdah'' of the urdu language, which has received universal acclaim in the entire Muslim world. The biggest proof of its acceptance is that its verses are on the tongues of every Muslim lover (aashiq) of the Noble Prophet, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, no matter where they live in the world.
The first [31] couplets relate to the metaphysical (Reality of Muhammad) aspect of the mystical life of the Beloved Prophet, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, which requires some research of the doctrine of Imam 'Abd 'Allah al-Tustari and Shaykh Muhiy'ud-Din Ibn al-Arabi, May Allah be pleased with them, for full appreciation. Therefore much attention has been paid to explain them through some excerpts and references.
Verses/Couplets [from 32 to 81] explain the spiritual excellence of Allah's Beloved Prophet, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, from the physical appearance from birth to his Prophethood. When Divine light radiates in the inmost being, it illuminates the entire intuitive perception, i.e. every limb reflects Beauty Absolute, which AlaHadrat, May Allah be pleased with him, explains or hints at by using similies, metaphors or metaphysical imagery.

English Translation & Interpretation by Muhammad Riaz Qadri
Extracted from the Foreward: In each century of socio-political and religious turmoil, certain pious spiritual figures have always emerged on the scene and guided the Muslim ummah. The present book is on the life of such a luminous spiritual personality, whose advent in the last century illustrates the role of the Sufis who accepted the challenge of the evil forces and brought about renaissance and revived the glory of religion.
It was Imam Ahmad Riza Khan Barelwi, May Allah be pleased with him, who was at the forefront, pitted against the elements hostile to Islam, the political pundits of that era, and those who were insolent to Allah's Beloved, Sayyadina Rasul-Allah, May Allah be pleased with him. He went into combat with them, and boldly overcame all such elements. In recognition, he earned the title of Mujaddid from the Muslim Ummah living in Arabia as well as the non-Arab worlds.--- Sayyad Ameer Ali Shah al-Qadiri

Paperback [ vii + 147] = Total 154 pages by Maryam Qadri
A' la Hazrat : Mujaddid Imam Ahmed Raza Khan
Description : Nida-e-Haqq - (The Voice of Truth) is devoted to answering questions such as:
What does the ruling of takfir (apostasy) by a qualified mufti have to do with Muslims living in English-speaking countries like the United States, Canada, England and Australia?
What happens when a Muslim denies the fundamentals of faith, and instead of repenting he professes to be a Sunni belonging to the Saved Group?
Why is a controversy that took place in British India more than a century ago relevant today?
Much of the following sections of this book are devoted to answering such questions, at present however, it is hoped that a brief glance should suffice. The answer to the first question is everything in the sense that correct belief is a prerequisite for the believer.
As for the second question, we need to imagine what would happen if a charlatan wore the garb of a pious Sufi Shaykh and professed to be a follower of the Mujtahid Imams. How would the Ummah (community) recognise his innovation from the true creed of Islam? In all probability, without proper guidance, we would be overcome by this ravenous wolf.
In answer to the third question, it could be said that the events that took place in the recent past possess the very touchstone that establishes truth from falsehood, and a clear understanding of these events is therefore essential. And it is with this in mind, that we introduce A' la Hadrat, The Mujaddid; Imam Ahmad Raza Khan al-Qadiri, May Allah be pleased with him. [1856 - 1921 C.E]

The Reform Policy ofIMAM AHMAD RAZA BARELVI Paperback - 109 pages by Dr Muhammad Haroon
Introduction taken from the book
This book is the most important that the Raza Academy has ever printed, because it presents the real reason why all our work and all of our publications are relevant to the world today.
Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Barelwi, rahmatullahi 'alayhi, is truly amongst the most important people who lived in the Twentieth Century, and now that we stand at the end of the century, it is to him and to his ideas that we must turn to correct the mistakes made, and the problems created since he died.
Of course there is much more that could be said about the importance of Imam Ahmad Raza, but this book begins to sum up his real value for Humanity.

Mustafa Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, The Paragon of Mercy
Paperback - 111 pagesBy Mufti Muhammad Khan Qaadiri
English Translation by : Muhammad Sajid Younus
''Mustafa Jaan e Rahmat pe Laakhon Salaam'' is the famous urdu language salawaat and salaam written by the Mujaddid of the 19th Century and Imam of the Ahl e Sunna in the Subcontinent, Ahmad Riza Khan, may Allah be pleased with him. It has not only been lauded as a work of prose for its unique composition and style but by leading religious scholars for its beautiful distillation of core Islamic beliefs.
Like its famous Arabic predecessor, the Qaseeda Burdah, each of its 171 sonnets is based on the teachings of the Qur'an and Ahadith and alongwith fulfilling the compulsion of presenting Salawaat and Salaam upon Allah’s Beloved, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, it also details the Islamic creed; describes the Prophet’s May Allah bless him and grant him peace, virtues, khasaais (particularities), Khilq (physique) and his Khulq (character) together with narrating his miracles and his major events.
Finally, in true Islamic fashion, it sends blessings upon the Companions, Ahl ul Bait, Ulama and Awliyaa, before finishing with a supplication for blessings upon one’s teachers and parents.
This first volume of the English explanation of the famous salaam covers the first 22 sonnets which focus on the Prophet’s khasaais. This will not only be of interest to those who recite and hear this salaam but to all those who have a genuine in interest in increasing their love for the Prophet, May Allah bless him and grant him peace, by getting to know him more.
