The Book of Assistance
The Beloved Messenger of God, may the Blessings of Allah & peace be upon him & and his Family, prophesised that in every century God would raise up amongst his nation a man who would renew its religion. Imam 'Abdallah al-Haddad Radi Allahu anhu was the renewer, or Mujaddid, of the twelfth Islamic century. He was renowned, and deservedly so, for the breadth of his knowledge and his manifest sanctity. The profundity of his influence on Muslims is reflected by the fact his books are still in print throughout the Islamic world.
There are many books in English which present Muslim doctrine on everyday manners and living, but few which can be used as practical travel guides along the Path. Originally written in Classical Arabic, The Book of Assistance is today in widespread use among teachers in Arabia, Indonesia, and Africa. This manual of devotions, prayers, and practical ethics will be invaluable to all who love the Prophet and his way.
