nhealthy addictions and depression are widespread: some of us find the uncertainty and emotional darkness eating away at us. 700 years ago, a diligent Muslim scholar told of a cost-free, universal psychotherapeutic cure, writing: āHappiness comes with a sincere duāÄā.ā He was Al-Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (RA); his teacher was Ibn Taymiyyah (RA). Riding on the coat-tails of our pious predecessors, we too seek routes to accepted prayers and eternal reward within the tradition of the Holy QurāÄn and authentic ahÄdÄ«th (Prophetic sayings).
This book builds on our debut āA Handbook of Spiritual Medicineā and isnāt simply a compilation of recommended duāÄās. Instead it is a carefully considered framework that aligns our emotions with the most beautiful duāÄās, all of which have a profound constructive purpose: the aim is to transport us smilingly and with noblest etiquette towards the maāarifat (higher knowledge of AllÄh swt) and istiqÄmah (steadfastness) that every Muslim seeks, deep down.
This book includes:
- 'The DuāÄā Framework: the what, the why, the when and the how of duāÄā.
- More than 200 of the most beautiful duāÄās related to and to help manage each of the 26 spiritual diseases.
- A glossary of more than 100 emotions, as another way for the reader to navigate directly to those duāÄās that will be of most benefit in sha Allah.
- Each duāÄā is drawn and fully referenced from Qurāanic verses and authentic ahÄdÄ«th.
