Documents Of The Right Word
₦27,000A collection of small books written by Sunni scholars for answering Shi’a claims.
This book explains how the Hurûfîs, who infiltrated the Shi’î communities, attacked the Sunnîs, how the Iranian King Nâdir Shâh organized a debate between the Sunnî and the Shi’î scholars, which ended in the bilateral recognition that the Shi’î (Shiah) way had been mixed with Hurûfî elements and that on the other hand the Sunnîs were in the right way, and how it was decided, and the decision was sanctioned by Nâdir Shâh that Iran would be Sunnî as before.
Upon reading this book of ours, our Iranian brothers will agree with the decision taken by the Shiite scholars, become Sunnî Muslims, and attain happiness. Gratitude be to Allâhu ta’âlâ, next to none of the recent Iranian learners has abandoned the Sunnî way. We observe with gratitude, for instance, that the Persian book Kimyâ-i-Sa’âdat, written by Imâm-i-Ghazâlî, a Sunnî scholar, was reprinted in a most splendid form in Tehran in 1964, and the younger generation in Iran are being informed about the statements made by hundreds of Sunnî scholars, thus being impressed by their superior merits.
The very day Shiites free themselves from the Hurûfîs deceit, realize the way shown by their own scholars, and cooperate with the Sunnîs in spreading Islam over the world, the Wahhabîs will join them, Muslims will be in unity, they will certainly resume their past grandeur and superiority, they will once again shed a light on humanity and guide others to civilization, and thus the whole world will attain happiness. Then all people will know that serving Islam means serving humanity.

The Biography of Imam Ibn Maajah
₦20,000Imam Ibn Majah (209H – 273H), may Allah have his mercy upon his soul, lived during the Abbasid caliphate while scientific studies had begun taking hold in the Abbasid dynasty. During this time literary aspects greatly influenced writing and works about Islam, thus protecting Islam from these things had become of foremost importance to Imam Ibn Maajah and other scholars of this time.
Ibn Majah also traveled extensively to verify the authenticity of the ahadith he was narrating. His quest of knowledge left him with many teachers and students. Like other scholars of hadith, to avoid showing off, he did not write down his stories of traveling, otherwise, we would have invaluable resources to learn from.

Elevating Sahih Al-Bukhari : Affirming The Status of Imam Al Bukhari and His Sahih by Dispelling the Misconceptions Surrounding Them by Adbdul Qadir Muhammad Jalal
₦8,500ELEVATING SAHIH AL-BUKHÄRI
For centuries, there have been numerous attacks on the hadith, its narrators, scholars, and compilations, especially on Imam al-Bukhäri and his Sahih. These attacks (in the past and present) are of various forms, and today have become widespread due to the advent of social media. Thus, we consider it obligatory and timely to produce a book that dispels these misconceptions and preserves the status of the hadith; particularly its most authentic collection Sahihal-Bukhari. This look addressed 21 major misconceptions arranged in five chapters, and presented academic responses to those misconceptions in a manner that is comprehensible to the layman and sufficient for the one seeking the truth. This work is a noble attempt to fill a gap in defending the pure Sunnah, and is considered part of a debt paid towards Imam al-Bukhäri and his great book (Sahih al-Bukhäri). -
