Subtleties of the Ascension
Early Mystical sayings on The Prophet Muhammad’s Heavenly Journey The Isra wa Mi'raj
As compiled by Abu ‘Abd al-Rahman Sulami
Translated and annotated by Frederick S. Colby
This first time translation into any language of a recently discovered tenth century manuscript provides a window into the thought-world of the early Muslim mystics known as the Sufis, and offers a comparative case of mystical exegesis for those interested in mysticism more generally.
Fifty-six teachings on a variety of ascension-related issues illustrate the profoundly creative imagination of such early Sufi mystics as Hallaj, Junayd, and Bistami, demonstrating their remarkable ability to mine gems of insight from the deepest depths of spiritual experience, and highlighting their abiding love for the Prophet Muhammad.

Sufi Aphorism - Kitab al-Hikam (SOLD OUT)
By: Ibn Ata; Allah
Translation with an introduction notes
By: Victor Danner
Forwarded by: Martin Lings
This attractive and eloquent volume is one of the great basic texts of Islamic mysticism. A collection of 262 aphorisms that constitute a masterful summary of the truths of the Sufi Path, it combines the profound Sufi teachings and real charm of language that characterize the Hikm. It not only unfolds the integral Sufi doctrine on all levels, but it sows so in a manner calculated to appeal to pious Muslims in general. The powerful and yet gracious union o thought and language makes of the Hikm and memorizable work of universal appeal.
The main theme of the Hikam is Gnosis (Ma’rifah). In other words, instead of being a purely objective exposition of Oneness of Being, that doctrine is here deliberately “aimed” at the reader so that he may experience as it were a continual knocking on the doors of his intelligence. Bound up with this is the theme of Adab which, when it is a Sufi term, may be translated “pious courtesy”. Gnosis is not merely an act of the intelligence; it demands a total participation; and adab in its highest sense is the conformity of the soul, in all its different facets, to the Divine Presence

Tafsir Ul-Qur'an
Translation and Commentary by Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi
Hardcover 4 Volumes 2025 pages
The famous tafseer of Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi. Maulana Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi wrote in 1981, "... the translation and commentary of Abdul Majid Daryabadi is undoubtedly unique and most acceptable among all the exegetical renderings of the Holy Qur'an attempted so far in the English language... A distinguishing feature of Daryabadi's exegesis is that it provides a conclusive answer to those Jewish and Christian critics of Islam who claim that the Holy Qur'an draws its material from Judaism and Christianity."

By: Washington Irving

Washington Irving, has long been admired for his writings on American lore and history, but his work on Islamic subjects, particularly his studies of Islamic Spain, deserve wider recognition. The author first visited Granada in 1828, and revisited the city many times, living within the precincts of the Alhambra and having access to the many historical documents housed there. The Alhambra is a more personal study reflecting the author’s enchantment with the splendours of the palace and his intimate knowledge of the history of the Muslims in Spain. Our Price: $6.99

The Attributes of God
By: 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Jawzi
Translated by: Abdullah bin Hamid 'Ali
Paperback 169 Pages
Daf' Shubah al-Tashbh is a critique, censure, and refutation of the historical anthropomorphic leanings of some of the Hanbali scholars and learned. At the same time, it is a vindication of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal from the accusations of the anthropomorphism as well as the claim by some Hanbalis, that he adopted anthropomorphic beliefs, similar to theirs. Unmistakably, this work is a polemical commentary on the problematic Qur'anic verses and hadiths that fall under the mutashabih (allegorical and ambiguous) Qur'anic verses and prophetic traditions composed by the author, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Jawzi (d. 597 AH), the author of the well-acclaimed book, Talbis Iblis (The Devils' Deception).
Unlike other books of this genre, this book is significant in that Ibn al-Jawzi offers an incisive critique of scholars of his own school, for which in return, Ibn al-Jawzi was criticised by those Hanbali and Hanbali-leaning proponents. Our Price: $23.99
