Here is the city of palm dates and lively hearts; here lives his heart. It is his place, his city, his people. It is the city in which everything came alight when he arrived. Its people and its very nature loved him. Here is Mount Uhud with which he had a relation of mutual love. These narrow alleyways will recognize his footsteps.

Here will be his mosque and adjacent to it will be his small rooms.

But here in the mosque will also gather a great band of men, eager to follow him and do his bidding. With them he will have a pure relation of mutual love. He is always with them; but his special relation is with God…We will look at Prophet Muhammad’s management of his day, hour by hour, to gain an insight into the simplicity of his great life, the spontaneity of his serious life, the perfect balance between his activities and the fulfillment of complementary needs.

This book deals exclusively with the subject of moral etiquette in Islam, focusing on the customs and traditions of the early Muslims.

Al Adab Al Mufrad is Imam al-Bukhari’s second most well known work, which contains 644 sections with 1322 ahaadith and narrations from the pious predecessors. It comprises benefits from the daily life of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), his companions, and the early Muslims.

You may expect a fascinating insight into how one should behave as practiced by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), his companions, and the Aimmah of the Tabi’in from the following generation. It tackles a variety of issues; from dealing with specific family members, to how to write letters, as well as how to go shopping, or even on how to walk properly. The unique depth and importance of this book makes it an undeniable classic, covering all areas of life. One would become a model citizen for others by following this true guidance and adapting these great characters.

Al Adab Al Mufrad deserves the most attention after the book Sahih Al Bukhari by the one who seeks to follow the sunnah of beloved Prophet (PBUH).

“In this treatise, we wish to present certain concepts, tools and methods that will help the family to establish communication among its members; because next to Allah’s grace, it is communication that a family needs most to have mutual understanding, cohesion and success. And we would be unfair to ourselves if we find our families disintegrating before our very eyes, when there are several books and experiences that should have helped us to protect and make them choice families, happy and strong. I have tried to make this a good addition to what circulates around of literature on child upbringing available to parents. And because this work is addressed to a very wide audience, among whom are the educated and the semi-educated, I have striven to see that my expressions are as simple as possible; even though expressing ideas that have philosophical content in very simple language could do some kind of injustice to their meaning. This is why this attempt of ours is bound to still be imperfect; but sufficient it is that I have tried to aim clearly and closely as best I can.”
