The Dress Code For The Muslim in The Quran And Sunnah Women By Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani (D. 1420H) ISBN: 9781904336693 Author: Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani Book Binding: Paperback Pages 240 Size: 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.7 inch Publication year:2021 Description About This Book: "The Dress Code for Muslim Women" by Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani is a detailed treatise on Islamic women's dress. Imam Al-Albaani presents a thorough explanation of the different features and criteria of Islamic clothing, drawing on the Quran and Sunnah. The book starts by highlighting the importance of humility in Islam. The Author said that if you think modesty is the only virtue to endorse by Allah But it's not the only virtue This establishes the groundwork for the ensuing consideration of the intricacies of Islamic women's attire. The most important requirement and primary requirement for Muslim women by Allah is to cover the complete body except for the face and hand He elaborates on the reasons behind this prescription and provides insights into the wisdom and benefits of following this dress code. Furthermore, the book looks into the various styles of attire that are considered appropriate under Islamic norms. Imam Al-Albaani bases his arguments on Islamic sources and academic interpretations throughout the text. He explains the fundamentals of Islamic attire, with the goal of providing clarity and advice to Muslim women in adhering to this aspect of their faith.  Allah, the Most High, said: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters, and the women of the believers, to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments,” — Al-Ahzaab (33): 59. In Islam, women are held in a high position: whether a woman is a daughter or a mother, single or married, rich or poor, Islam has honored all believing women. At the center of society is the family home, the heartbeat of which are the women who raise the next generation. This is why women are crucial to the making of a virtuous society. When women achieve righteousness, the world around them will in turn rectify and refine itself, because it is in the hands of women that upcoming nations are nurtured. Being a complete way of life, Islam has a code of conduct for both males and females, and one’s clothing is an aspect of good conduct that presents itself outwardly. Contrary to the flawed arguments of those who oppose Islam, our religion is one that venerates and respects women more than any other creed or ideology. In today’s society, many have discussed and debated the clothing of a Muslim woman. It has become a controversial issue that is often brought up to attack Islam, with some even going as far as to say that aspects of Muslim women’s clothing are oppressive or that they have nothing to do with the religion. The dress code for Muslim women is a matter of great importance which the Qur’an and Sunnah has already resolved for us. Following guidance outlined by both is a true mark of a believing woman, a sign of her piety, a means to elevating her rank and attaining the status of a woman of Paradise. This extensive text covers important attributes and intricate details related to the clothing of believing women, whom Allah mentions in the above verse alongside the wives and daughters of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon him). Nobility, dignity, and respect lies in following what Allah and His Messenger have instructed us with, and it is the path to success in this life and the Hereafter. Having our dear sisters understand and apply in their lives what is published within these pages, is vital to achieving the pleasure of our Lord. In the words of the author, may Allah have mercy on him, “This is a fine thesis and a beneficial treatise, Insha'Allah, which I have compiled to make clear the clothing that it is incumbent upon the Muslim woman to wear when she goes out of her house and the conditions that she must fulfil in order for her garb to be Islamic. In doing so, I have relied on the Qur’an and Sunnah, being guided also by the traditions and sayings of the Companions (radiyAllahu`anhum) and the Imams.

Perished Nations , Book of Penalties By Al-Hafiz Ibn Abi Al-Dunya  ISBN:9781904336716Author: Al-Hafiz Ibn Abi Al-DunyaBook Binding: PaperbackPages 176Size: 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.6 inchPublication year:2021DescriptionAbout This Book: “Perhaps your Lord will have mercy on you if you repent, but if you return to sin, We will return to punishment...” [Al-’Isra, 8]Whether done in open or secret, sins have consequences. Some of their repercussions on an individual or society manifest in the removal of particular blessings, replaced then with trials and disgrace. When they transgressed against their Lord, belligerent nations came to witness agonising recompense, while those who belittled sins and insisted on committing them further hastened and increased the ferocity of their torment on earth. A Muslim is therefore, always fearful of any wrongdoing he falls into and is swift in turning back to Allah in repentance.“Many are the towns whose end We delayed while they did wrong, then We seized them. And to Me is the final return.” [Al-Hajj, 48]Originally compiled by the author over eleven hundred years ago, this book deals with matters relating to sin and its fallout. He selected various Prophetic narrations and sayings of the early Muslims to form the first genre of its kind. With this English rendering of ‘Kitab al-Uqubat’, readers will be able to understand the relationship between actions and events where one is a direct result of the other. They will also recognize remedial measures that diminish the punishment of Allah and return them back into the fold of His safety and grace.

The Sunnah (or Ahadith), on the other hand, has become something strange, and most people are confused about its status. It is common to hear people denigrating its importance. They often say: “it is only the Sunnah”, implying that one can take it or leave it. It has become the norm to give preference to the opinions of others over the clear and authentic Sunnah. Some even go as far as denying the Sunnah altogether.In Islam the Sunnah holds a lofty and unique position – it is revelation from Allah, the Most High, to al-Mustafa – the chosen one. Learning and teaching the Sunnah is pivotal to understanding and implementing the religion. Allah, al-Hafidh, has Promised to protect his Religion and has Preserved the Sunnah in its entirety. The text before you is a compilation of three works of the learned scholar, Imam al-Albani (rahmatullahi alaihi). The first section of the book discusses Ahadith and its importance in Islam. The second treatise answers questions related to the Noble Qur’an and its relationship to the Sunnah, that were posed to the Sheikh and later transcribed into text form. The final text covers the status of the Sunnah and its necessity in order to fully understand the Qur’an and other related issues.This is an important work for every sincere Muslim who wants to tread the path of the Prophet [peace and blessings be upon him] and his noble companions. In these latter times, there are many issues of confusion. The Sheikh perceived that there was an urgent need to respond, and he has succeeded in addressing and dispelling the doubts.

Relief from Distress By Shaykhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (Paperback) ISBN: 9781904336136 Author: Shaykhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah Book Binding: Paperback Pages:256 Size: 9.3 x 6.1 x 0.6 inch Publication year: 2012 Description About This Book:The paperback book "Relief from Distress" was written by Shaykhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah. For people going through sorrow and adversity in their life, this informative work provides direction and consolation. Shaykhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah tackles numerous sorts of sorrow and offers spiritual and practical solutions thanks to his thorough understanding of Islamic principles. The book provides encouragement and direction during trying times by drawing on verses from the Quran, prophetic traditions, and the scholastic knowledge of Ibn Taymiyyah. Shaykh aI-Islam ibn Taymiyyah, may Allah sanctify his soul, was asked about the saying of the Prophet (SAW) said, The invocation of my brother Yunus, "none has the right to be worshipped save You; glory be to You, far removed are You from any imperfection; I have been amongst the wrong-doers," none who is experiencing difficulty employs it except that Allah would relieve him of his difficulty 1. What is the meaning of this dua? 2. Are their any unstated conditions that have to be met when one articulates it? 3. What is the connection between belief in the heart and the meaning of this supplication such that it leads to the removal of difficulty? 4. Why did he explicitly confess, 'I have been amongst the wrongdoers' when it is known that tawhid in itself leads to the removal of  difficulty? Is it sufficient to acknowledge ones sin alone, or must this be accompanied by repentance and the firm resolve not to repeat that sin in the future? 5. Why is it that difficulty and harm is removed only when a person relinquishes any hope, reliance and dependency upon the creation? 6. How can the heart relinquish the characteristic of putting hope in the creation and depending upon them, and instead put its hope in Allah, Exalted is He, and turn to Him in its entirety? 7. What are the methods that would aid the heart in doing this?

Patience and Perseverance by Ibn Abie ad-Dunyaa ISBN:9781904336747 Author: Ibn Abie ad-Dunyaa Book Binding: Paperback Pages: 96 Size: 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.3 inch Publication year: 2022 Language: English Description About This Book: Sulayman ibn Qasim said, “The reward of every deed is known except for patience, for Allah Almighty Said: ‘Indeed, those who endure patiently will be given their reward in full without limit.’ [Al-Zumar, 10]. The attribute of patience is less about the ability to sit tight and wait out any adversity or misfortune, and more about holding good etiquette and Islamic propriety while waiting. This includes persevering throughout the ordeal, not complaining about one’s condition (except to Allah) and recognising that Allah’s wisdom and decree necessitate holding good positive thoughts about Him. Allah, the Most High, presses the believers to seek His assistance through patience and prayer. It is a realisation that Allah doesn’t put you through hardship except to grant you relief, nor place a burden on you more than you can bear. To know that He tests those whom He loves, will make you appreciate even the harshest of trials you may be going through is in fact, good for you. Allah also Said: “And We test you with evil and good as a trial” [21:35] Meaning: “With evil”, to see how you’ll show patience. “And with good”, to see how you’ll show gratitude. ‘Al-Sabr wa’l Thawab ‘alayha’ is Dar as-Sunnah’s second instalment of an Ibn Abi Dunya’s work. We hope this complete English translation will inspire the reader to appreciate the realities of patience and put in place items of action that will guide them through their own set of difficulties in life. About The Author: Al-Hafiz Abu Bakr, Abdullah ibn Muhammad, ibn Abi Al-Dunya was an authoritative and prolific writer and compiler of Hadith. Highly respected for leading an exemplary lifestyle, he was known for his piety and asceticism, spending much of his adult life teaching and counselling.
