Endorsements

"A beautifully structured and well-presented work, highlighting one of the most important aspects of Islamic teachings - purifying the heart from blameworthy character traits and replacing them with praiseworthy ones."

- Mufti Muhammad ibn Adam al-Kawthari / Director & Researcher - Darul Iftaa

    "The author has put in a lot of hard work to ensure that the reader can reflect and ponder over his shortcomings, which is a continuing duty upon a Muslim. This work will enable the reader to self-analyse and assist him or herself in meeting their Creator with a 'sound heart'.There are some very relevant issues mentioned and I'm certain that those who will read the work with a view to correcting their inner souls will be benefited immensely from the work."

- Dr Shaykh Ashram Makadam / Director of Trust - Madani Schools Federation

Mashā-Allāh, it has been compiled in great detail yet in an easy-to-follow format. If read with the guidance of a shaykh (spiritual guide) then inshā’Allāh it will aid greatly, be of much benefit and ease the path to the attainment of tazkiyah.

- Mawlana Muhammad Yahya / Director - An Nasihah Publications

About the Author

Being a British-born Muslim, I have been a seeker of faith from my adolescent years. The son of Pakistani immigrants, my upbringing came from steadfast parents who led by example. We had no access to an Islamic school growing up in the seventies and eighties in Britain. We were blessed that we learnt the practice of faith through their actions. Their generosity of heart, compassion for those less fortunate, and raising us to be confident in our Muslim identity served as the backdrop to our upbringing.



Once I left home to attend university, the negotiation of my identity as a person of faith with the distractions of youth in the new surroundings was sometimes challenging, but I got through the four-year minefield with the help of a book called, “Purification of the Heart: Signs, Symptoms and Cures of the Spiritual Diseases of the Heart” by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Hanson. It was this text that was the inspiration, in my mind, to one day create a ‘guidebook’ of sorts that would focus on self-purification. I thought to myself that it would be practical to have a pocket book that addressed the maladies of the human spiritual condition and offered up the remedies too. This idea lay dormant for a decade or more as life rolled surely along, and I adapted to professional life as an IT consultant, deciding to marry and settle down.

In my forties and a family man, there came a more ardent desire to create a handbook that would help people overcome the boundaries to living their best. But it had to be something accessible, easy to pick up during our busy lives in this modern, high-tech era. I needed to address the struggles and insecurities we all face and offer the antidotes to those ailments, using evidence from the Qurān and authentic ahādīth (Prophetic sayings). The result was a spiritual guide to the self, a handbook of tazkiyah, or self- purification that will, I hope, prove accessible to people of all ages and denominations. Not being a scholar or a professional writer, the journey of self-publishing was an enlightening one and I’m indebted to the kind people who guided me along the way. Who knows, I may even continue the journey with a sequel one day, Lord willing.

Abu Mas’ud reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like one who did it.”

[Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1893]

Assalaamuaikum Wa Rahmatullahi WaBarakaatuh.

Firstly Jazaakum-الله-khayran to all our supporters in getting our campaign this far. We thank الله سبحانه وتعالى for helping us getting our campaign out there and infront of you :) As a small family-run team it really means the world to us!


We still, however, have a lot of ground to cover before reaching our ambitious goal ان شاء الله سبحانه وتعالى. And if supporting us wasn't enough we're going to ask you for one more favour. There will be something in it for you we we promise ان شاء الله سبحانه وتعالى :) 


Fortunately, it's really simple and will only take a few seconds! If you could share our campaign on your social media / WhatsApp groups it will go a long way in helping us. And it's just 2 click! From our campaign page simply scroll down and a little bar will popup on the top (using Desktop) or the bottom (using Mobile). 

 





Here you will find the share icons. Clicking on them will share the campaign on your social platforms of choice. It's that easy! Now imagine someone does support the campaign because of you putting in on social media. Everytime they read, and practice upon what they've learned and get closer to الله سبحانه وتعالى ,by His Rahmah, they will get reward. And the Prophet (PBUH) mentions that you will get a reward like that ان شاء الله سبحانه وتعالى . Isn't Islam so beautiful and الله سبحانه وتعالى The Most Merciful? Happy Sharing :)


==================================================


Now that you've shared the campaign, we're sure you'd like to know more about shipping dates. We've been working closely with our printers and couriers and are pleased to announce the following dates.


  • UK - Shipping Begins Week Commencing 26/10/2020. 
  • US - Shipping Begins Week Commencing 09/11/2020.

Estimated delivery will be 14 days from the dates above ان شاء الله سبحانه وتعالى .


***EDIT*** We'd previously asked for shipping addresses but Alhumdulillah they're available through LaunchGood. Sincere apologies for being asleep at the wheel there :)

***EDIT***


 We Ask الله to accept our efforts so far and are extremely excited to have you as a supporter. Jazaakum-الله سبحانه وتعالى-Khayr!

A Golden Handbook of Spiritual Medicine!

Assalaamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh.


Bismillah. I pray that all of you are well and in the best of health in these telling times. 


Full disclosure, good and err, not so exciting news (but we can explain!)


First the good news. All praise is due to الله سبحانه وتعالى . 


This is the first iteration of our book, which if we may so so, looks good alhumdulillah. But in our persistent strive for excellence we wanted to make it just a little better by the will of الله سبحانه وتعالى. 


Through some interesting conversations with our designers and printers, we're proud to announce that A Handbook of Spiritual Medicine has a brand new cover!




Both Premium Hardback, and Portable Paperback will now be embellished and detailed in beautiful gold-foil. Best news is that all our supporters will be the first to receive these new covers at no extra charge :)


The not so great news, is that for many reasons our campaign has not performed as well as we'd hoped. And الله سبحانه وتعالى knows best. We've made a decision just to extend the campaign for a little while (15 days to be exact). I know this is not the best news as many of our supporters are excited to have their products shipped to them. 


What we're going to do ان شاء الله is to try to keep to the original deadline of 2-3 weeks estimated dispatch after the campaign ends, and we can ان شاء الله try to ship them a little faster (maybe 1 week) after the campaign ends. Our team will be discussing this in the next few days and come up with a plan as to make the dispatch as fast as possible. 


We sincerely hope this won't affect your supporting our campaign and we'll be able to get your orders out to you ASAP. We thank you for your patience and understanding and ask sincere forgiveness ان شاء الله . 


May الله سبحانه وتعالى accept from us and bring us closer to him. May الله سبحانه وتعالى make us from amongst those whom are blessed with shade on the day where there is no shade except for His SubhaanuwaTala.

UK Early Bird Tiers Sold Out!

Assalaamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh :)


JazaakumAllah Khayr to everyone who has supported us so far! May الله سبحانه وتعالى accept our efforts ان شاء الله in becoming better people and trying to get as close to Him Azza-Wa Jall.


Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah Almighty says: Whoever comes with a good deed will have the reward of ten like it and even more. Whoever comes with an evil deed will be recompensed for one evil deed like it or he will be forgiven. Whoever draws close to me by the length of a hand, I will draw close to him by the length of an arm. Whoever draws close to me the by length of an arm, I will draw close to him by the length of a fathom. Whoever comes to me walking, I will come to him running. Whoever meets me with enough sins to fill the earth, not associating any idols with me, I will meet him with as much forgiveness.”
