Description
About The Book
This book consists of eighty-nine discourses, each one being an exegesis on one of the eighty-nine Quranic verses. In which the believers are addressed as: “O you who believe”.
The Shaikh says of this work: ”I give thanks to the master (Glorious and Exalted is He) for making this work easy for me. Whenever I read the Quran, the sound of the call from my Lord would penetrate my heart, with his saying (Exalted is He):
O you who truly believe! Ya ayyuha lladhina amanu.
“I would pause at each verse containing a call, and contemplate what Allah meant this Call to signify for me it occurred to my heart that I should collect them and write them down, but I did not decide to act on the feeling until I was moved to do so by Allah’s enabling grace.”

About the translator
Muhtar Holland: Muhtar Holland (1935-2010 CE) was an English translator whose patient, faithful renderings opened a large body of classical Islamic literature to English readers. He was born in the city of Durham in northeast England and was drawn from school onward to the study of languages, reading Arabic and Turkish at Oxford and learning Russian during national service in the Royal Navy. He embraced Islam in 1969, taking the name Muhtar, after a period connected to the Subud movement.\n\nOver the following decades he held academic and research positions at the University of Toronto, the School of Oriental and African Studies in London (with a period studying Islamic law in Cairo), and Universiti Kebangsaan in Kuala Lumpur, and he served as a senior research fellow at the Islamic Foundation in Leicester and as director of a translation center in New York.\n\nHis most enduring contribution was an extensive series of translations of the discourses and writings of Shaykh Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani, among them Revelations of the Unseen (Futuh al-Ghaib), The Sublime Revelation (al-Fath al-Rabbani), Utterances (Malfuzat), and The Removal of Cares (Jalaʾ al-Khawatir). He also translated treatises of al-Ghazali, including works on inner worship and the celebrated Deliverance from Error. Shaykh Nuh Keller described him as a translator's translator, and many regarded him as foremost among English renderers of these texts. He died on 5 November 2010 in New Jersey.
