About The Book

Ever since he preached his first sermon, people from the world over have fallen in love with the Prophet of Islam ﷺ. As a community our quest has been how to capture this love, teach this love, pass on this love and become this love.

These inquiries and many more related to them are the core questions that drove Qadi iyad to compile his famous ash-Shifa' to serve, above all, as a manual of love and devotion to our beloved Messenger ﷺ. Since it was first written nearly 900 years ago, this book has been universally accepted by the ummah as one of the greatest celebrations of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

It teaches us what are beliefs about the Prophet ﷺ a constitute, what he represents both metaphysically and physically and the necessary rights and responsibilities we owe him as his followers. Since the original is a lengthy book, we are pleased to provide here a suitable abridgement in English.
