In Praise of Allah & His Beloved sallaLlahu alayhi wasallam

Riad Saloojee is a South African Islamic scholar and lawyer. This book is a collection of nasheeds – poetry – recited or sung in praise of Allah and His Messenger. These nasheeds are aimed at drawing hearts to Allah and inspiring readers and listeners to purify and transform themselves. Dar al-Turath al-Islami is honoured to present them. Remembrance of the Divine occupies an essential pride of place in the Islamic tradition. One such form is the nasheed, poetry recited or sung in praise of Allah and His Messenger. Above and beyond their melodies, the nasheeds are the carriers of profound spiritual meaning and sentiment. In their truest manifestation, they educate, inspire, connect hearts to Allah, and call to a purpose of purity and inner transformation.
