Muhammad Messenger of Allah by Qadi Iyad Pdf

Kitab Ash-Shifa bi ta'rif huquq al-Mustafa, (Healing by the recognition of the Rights of the Chosen One), of Qadi 'Iyad (d. 544H/1149CE) is perhaps the most frequently used and commented upon handbook in which the Prophet's, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, life, his qualities and his miracles are described in every detail. Generally known by its short title, Ash-Shifa, this work was so highly admired throughout the Muslim world that it soon acquired a sanctity of its own for it is said: "If Ash-Shifa is found in a house, this house will not suffer any harm... when a sick person reads it or it is recited to him, Allah will restore his health." Ash-Shifa gathers together all that is necessary to acquaint the reader with the true stature of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, with the esteem and respect which is due to him, and with the verdict regarding anyone who does not fulfil what his stature demands or who attempts to denigrate his supreme status - even by as much as a nail paring. QADI 'IYAD His full name was Abu al-Fadl 'Iyad ibn Musa ibn 'Iyad ibn 'Imran ibn Musa ibn Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah ibn Musa ibn 'Iyad al-Yahsubi, the famous Imam. He was born in Ceuta in the month of Sha'ban, 496 AH and lived there although his family originated from Andalusia. According to his son, Muhammad, his ancestors originated in Andalusia and then moved to the city of Fes, staying in the Qarawiyyin at some point. 'Imrun moved to Ceuta after having lived in Fes. Qadi 'Iyad was the Imam of his time in hadith and its sciences. He was a scholar of tafsir and its sciences, a faqih in usul, a scholar in grammar, language and Arabic speech, as well as in the battles and lineages of the Arabs. He had insight into judgements and had the legal competence to write contracts. He preserved and knew the Maliki madhhab. He was an excellent poet, familiar with literature and an eloquent orator. He was steadfast, forbearing and a good companion. He was generous and gave a lot of sadaqa. He was constant in action and tenacious in the truth. He died in Marrakesh in the month of Jumada al-Akhira or Ramadan in 544 AH.

SAMAA’ “Glorifying God Almighty Allah And His Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) With Sweet Voice & Tambourine” by Anwar Haroon Pdf

In the name of Allah the Most beneficent and Most Merciful All the praise to Allah and His Holy Prophet Muhammad peace be on him. Allah says in holy Quran: Whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies Allah, the King (of everything), Holy, All-Mighty, All-Wise. Holy Quran 62:1 Since I read this verse of Holy Quran and its meaning, I was pondering while everything in the universe is praising Allah almighty, why are we not able to hear it? As my thinking and knowledge matured, I realized that every element has a molecule and its own atomic structure with its own nucleus with electron, proton and neutron which forms the particular element. Few electrons in the atomic structure circulate around its nucleus which can be seen with the help of an electron microscope. Then I realized that each element has a life of its own and human ears are unable to hear the movement of the electrons in it. It is surprising as Holy Quran mentions that the animal beings, plants, mountains, and the birds used to join Prophet Dawood (David) alaihissalaam in his praising of Allah Almighty and the mountains would swing. It is also said, that a camel had complained to Holy Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam about his master mistreating him. It is also said that the plants moved away with their roots to cover Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam when he had to attend to nature’s call in a field. It is said that Hazrat Ali raziallahu anhu could tell what the conch said when it was blown. Hazrat Jalaluddin Rumi went into a trance upon hearing the rhythmic sound at the shop of a gold beater. It is also proven that music even affects the milk-giving animals to increase its output, load-bearing animals can carry load without getting tired early, hunters catch the deer that go under trance of music and even plants bear more fruits. Well, the best rhythmic sound is of pronouncing the verses of Holy Quran with the best human voice, which was even liked by our Holy Prophet Peace be on him. Even the kuffar, non believers, used to hide and hear the recitation of Holy Quran and enjoy it. Next enjoyable is poetry with meaningful words and later is the music created by lifeless instruments. Our Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam has permitted singing with tambourine. He, peace be on him, used to enjoy good poetry and he even permitted his companion Hazrat Hassaan bin Thabit to recite a poetry condemning kuffar sitting on the pulpit of the mosque. Music is permitted in almost all religions and the Hindus of India in particular have developed it as an art. The Muslim Sufis of Chishtia Tareeq have also adapted rhythmic poetry and Hazrat Ameer Khusroo, may Allah bless him, has invented certain Raagaas and even developed certain musical instruments. Hence it is proven that lifeless instruments create rhythm which praises Allah Almighty. Even human beings praise Allah Almighty and His Holy Prophet peace be on him through their rhythmic poetry, which serves them to get closer to Allaahu Ta’ala. It should be noted that music could be even used wrongly by people just to satisfy their lust and increase their devilish thoughts. For this reason, the Sufis have laid certain rules to gain only the spiritual benefits and keep them away from its negative effects. It is still seen that few deviated Sufis are using music for a wrong cause and this has to be stopped. In this context, I have collected quotations from Holy Quran and Ahadeeth, sayings of famous and rightly guided scholars and Sufis on the topic Rhythmic poetry and music. I hope this booklet shall remove the misunderstanding from everyone’s mind and provide guidance. I pray that Allah Almighty be pleased and accept my endeavors in this regard and may Allahu Ta’ala send His praises upon His Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his progeny and companions, Aameen.

Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) in the Bible by Dr. S.M. Mohiuddin Habibi,Syed Ahsan Habibi Pdf

The greatest hope of all the religious groups that awaited for scores of centuries with a dogma of their own Holy Books which witnessed the glory and the majesty of that personality called as 'Muhammad' and 'Ahmad' – 'the Glorious' and 'the Praised', on whom be peace and lasting blessings, which certainly got fulfilled when he finally arrived on the stage of the history. The Scriptures of the Prophets that went before him ended their tasks by heralding the tiding of his coming. Despite the textual corruption of those ancient scriptures, the golden sayings were still preserved by ALLAH, the One True God as a signpost for the honest and noble readers. The seekers of truth! Be certain of the fact that Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) was the promised Prophet and the awaited saviour whom the Jews called as the King Messiah. His coming was prophesied by all the Prophets like Moses and Jesus (Peace Be Upon Them) long before his arrival, and he was also mentioned in the Old and New Testaments. Likewise, the Far East Indian scriptures never failed to mention ‘his name and praises’ which certainly constitute a miracle pertaining to him and confirming his Prophethood. In the light of the above facts, how could a man of wisdom escape from this overwhelming thought? Or will he still deny this truth? Or will he still await and hope that from Heaven angels would come and guide him when the final Message has already been delivered by 'Muhammadur Rasul ALLAH' to the creation of ALLAH in general, on whom be peace and lasting blessings? Indeed, it is ALLAH, the Lord of the worlds Who Himself calls on us to acknowledge this truth in the Holy Quran: "O mankind! The Messenger (Muhammad, on whom be peace and lasting blessings) hath come unto you with the Truth from your Lord. Therefore believe; (it is) better for you. But if ye disbelieve, still, lo! Unto ALLAH belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth. ALLAH is ever Knower, Wise" - (4:170).

Justice Rules on Earth by Mohammad Latif Raja Pdf

Angel Gabriel said, I do not know, how someone knows about Paradise and can sleep. How can be anybody who knows about hell and can sleep. But we are living in a state of sleep, unawareness. The problem with us is, we only wakeup, when we die we ask Allah to wake us way before that. And to grant us forgiveness. That will forgive our sins and make us die as Martyr, like Umer bin Khatab together with them in Jannah tul Firdous. I must have made many mistakes, they are mine, from myself. I did make mistakes; these mistakes are from myself. If there is any good, that is from Allah. We ask Allah to forgive us all. Praise belongs to Allah, Glory to be Allah.

And Muhammad Is His Messenger by Annemarie Schimmel Pdf

The important role of the Prophet Muhammad in the everyday lives of Muslims is usually overlooked by Western scholars and has consequently never been understood by the Western world. Using original sources in the various Islamic languages, Annemarie Schimmel explains the central place of Muhammad in Muslim life, mystical thought, and poetry. She sees the veneration of Muhammad as having many parallels in other major religions. In order to understand Muslim piety it is necessary to take into account the long history of the veneration of Muhammad. Schimmel discusses aspects of his life, birth, marriage, miracles, and heavenly journey, all of which became subjects for religious devotions. By using poetic texts and artistic expressions and by examining daily Muslim religious practices, Schimmel shows us the gentler side of Islamic religious culture, providing a much-needed understanding of religion as it is experienced and practiced in the Islamic world. This is the first book in English to deal with all aspects of the veneration of the Prophet Muhammad. It is an expanded version of Schimmel's Und Muhammad Ist Sein Prophet, originally published in German in 1981.

Striving for Divine Union by Qamar-ul Huda Pdf

This book examines the theological, philosophical and Islamic mystical dimensions of the Suhrawardî sufi order from the 13th to 15th centuries. The Suhrawardîs were a legally grounded and intellectually vibrant sufi order whose mystical path was based on exchanges and debates on the Qur'an and on the Prophet's customs. The book analyses their interpretation of sacred texts: the Qur'an, hadiths, sunna, and malfuzat. This created a unique self-understanding, which developed specific sufi spiritual exercises. The book discusses new important ways of thinking about the sufi hermeneutics of the Qur'an and its contribution to Islamic intellectual and spiritual life.

Lights of Yearning by Walid Lounès Bouzerar Pdf

A forty-piece collection of poetry & prose authored by Walid Lounes Bouzerar in praise of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad, choicest peace and blessings be upon him and his family. Foreword by H.E. Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi. - "In our time," one poet has exclaimed, "it is impossible to write religious poems!" Walid Lounes Bouzerar has proved the error of this comment. He has written a book of remarkable devotional poems in praise of the Prophet Muhammad, the Seal of Prophets . He uses rhythmic repetition of the Prophet's sacred names to generate a flowing evocation of the Beloved of Allah stretching over sixty pages. The book begins with verses highlighting the benefits of Bismill h ir-Ra m n ir-Ra m and its spiritual power to transform and heal people's lives both here and hereafter. So Lights of Yearning quickly and recurrently places Allah Almighty in high reverence above all. The poems go on to show the excellent qualities of Muhammad that made him the Beloved of Allah, that enabled the Prophet, through Allah's Grace, to transform cut-throats into Saints. The poems celebrate his celestial love, his connection with the whole universe and with each human soul, his virtuous actions that inspired his followers (men and women) to worship Allah . . At a key moment in the collection, a poem dedicated to the wisdom and truth of L Il ha Ill All h appears, balancing the first poem of Bismill h ir-Ra m n ir-Ra m. In this way, the book can be read like a ikr with alaw ts, strengthened with interjections that assert the predominance and authority of Allah, the One Creator . The poems are written in a variety of styles, from statement-and-response, like a dialogue, to use of rhyme and repetition, with references to names, incidents and characters in the life of Muhammad; short-line poems in a more modern, contemporary form to longer-line pieces in a discursive style. This diversity suggests how everything, in every way, is praising the One Most Praised . I marvel again how a poet can find new ways to present traditional material to excite a new generation of readers and reciters, as surely, these poems will not only be read, they will be sung. Brother Walid has produced a collection in which the beauty of his poetic language lives up (if this was possible) to the beauty of its subject, Muhammad . - Paul Abdul Wadud Sutherland Canadian-British award-winning poet and author of 'Poems on the Life of the Prophet Muhammad '"
