Dala’il al-Khayrat is unquestionably the most celebrated manual of Blessings on the Beloved Prophet (May Allah bless him and give him Peace) in history. From the time of its authorship in fifteenth-century Fez by the Moroccan Shadhili Shaykh Muhammad al-Jazuli (d. 870/1465), it swept throughout the whole of the Islamic World from North Africa to Indonesia. Countless millions of copies have been in circulation over the centuries with scarcely a well-to-do home in the Muslim heartlands being without one. Princes exchanged magnificent copies of it, commoners treasured it, pilgrims wore it at their side on the way to hajj. It is said in Singapore this was the only Muslim book they had during the Japanese occupation of World War II and they all recited it daily. Their prayers were answered.

It is said of the Dalail ul-Khayrat: “Millions of Muslims from East to West tried it and found its good, its baraka, and its benefit for centuries and over generations, and witnessed its unbelievable spiritual blessings and light. Muslims avidly recited it, alone and in groups, in homes and mosques, utterly spending themselves in the Blessings on the Most Beloved and praising him.

Islamic Months and their Beneficient Prayers by Sajidul Hashemi

Paperback - 111 pages

Preface : '' .... Al-hamdulilah, when the special nights and days of Islamic months come, muslims observe the fast during the day and worship in the night. Those people who are normally heedless from the obedience of Almighty Allah, also manage non-obligatory fasting and worship in those days and nights. Through the blessings of this worship, Almighty Allah grants to some people punctuality in offering future worship.

Orthodox and contemporary scholars of Islam have compiled many books on this topic, however most of them are in Arabic or Urdu. Thus, most muslims living in English speaking countries cannot take benefit from them. Our elders only read Urdu, whereas the youngsters only see English as their medium. This has led to a burning demand for simple and comprehensible multi-lingual, Urdu and English books. In this way all members of the family can take benefit from the same book. ''

The 12 month Islamic Months are : Muharram, Safar, Rabi al-Awal, Rabi al-Thani, Jumad al-Ula, Jumad as-Thani, Rajab, Shaban, Ramadan, Shawaal, Z'ul Qadah, Z'ul Hi'jjah

Al-Hizbul Azam - Prayers from the Qur'an & Sunnah

Paperback - 260 pages Arabic / English Compiled by Mullah Ali al Qari

Daily Prayers for the Entire Month (Divided into 29 Manzils)
Compiled by: Al- Imam al-Muhaddith Ali bin Sultan Muhammad ul Harwi ul Qari (Mullah Ali al Qari 'alayhir rahman w'al ridwan)
Arabic - English Papeback 257 Pages A5

Improved Publication and Print: Easy to read Arabic (Persian or the common Indo/Pak) Script is used so as to make it easier to read for non Arabic Speakers

The universally accepted traditional prayers have a status beyond compare; because the prayers which Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has revealed, either in the Qur'an al karim or by inspiring them as a direct, first person communication from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, or by a hidden revelation, spoken by the Beloved Prophet Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam or taught to some of his Companions, are by definition more acceptable to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala: hence this collection of’ prayers compiled by Allamah Au bin Sultan Muhammad also known as Mullah Ali Qari. Mullah Ali Qari has said in his preface that
if you read this compilation daily, it is very good. If that is not possible, then it should be read weekly, or monthly, or even once a year; and if even that is not possible then at least once in a lifetime.

Previously this thology was published with the ‘duas’ divided into seven days, for each day of the week. This division was not one which Mullah Ali Qari had done himself as is apparent from his words, but was done at some later stage.

As people, sometimes, are not able to read the entire collection of ‘duas’ in seven days, this Al-Hizb-ul-Azam has been divided into 29 Manzils’, one for each day of the month. Every Manzil starts with the ‘Hamd’ followed by the Durood’ and then other ‘duas’. The order has been changed, but nothing has been added to, or removed from the original text. --From The Preface

The Author has gathered together Prayers from Authentic Hadith and other famous classical works such as Hisn-e-Haseen (Juzri), Al Azkaar (Nawawi), Al Kalim Ut Tayyib and Al-Jaame'en and ad-Durr (Imam Suyuti, Al Qul ul Badi (Sakhavi)

This work has earned great popularity in the Muslim world; and almost became a part of the daily ritual for all.

About the Author: 'Ali ibn Sultan Muhammad al-Qari (d.1014/1605), popularly known as Mulla 'Ali al-Qari. He was born in Herat, Iran, where he received his basic Islamic education.
