Intensive Course 1 – First Year:

The Shamaa’il of Sayyidina RusoolAllah (sallellahu alayhi wa sallam)

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh,

The Zawiya Sulukiya Institute invites the community to a complete rendition (khatm) of the Shamaa’il of our Master Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and majlis as-salawat over the coming public holidays of Friday and Monday. The Shamaa’il is a famous and indispensable text of authentic narrations collected by the 3rd century Persian scholar, Muhammad ibn Isa at-Tirmidhi.  It invites the reader to reflect upon both moral and physical virtues and the noble characteristics of our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him).  Through the text, one establishes a loving connection and a desire to emulate the Mercy of Mankind. This is an extremely rare opportunity not to be missed.

“At no time is this sacred collection of traditions more needed, as an object of knowledge and as food for thought, than in ours, when the excesses of worldly concerns and the superfluity of material distractions seem to make people forget that the greatest fruit of life, and thus of religious faith, is beauty of soul. 

Here the reader is able to go back 14 centuries and be in the very presence of the Prophet, Peace and Blessings be upon Him. This particular collection is of the recorded sayings of the Prophet’s contemporaries, regarding his very person and presence, down to the color of his eyes and skin.”
