Al-Shifa bi Ta‘rif Huquq al-Mustafa ﷺ by Qadi Iyad

Al-Shifa bi Ta‘rif Huquq al-Mustafa ﷺ is one of the most celebrated and influential classical Islamic works on the status, virtues, characteristics and rights of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Authored by the distinguished Maliki scholar and Hadith authority Imam Qadi Iyad ibn Musa al-Yahsubi, this renowned masterpiece holds a special place in Islamic scholarship and the literature of Prophetic Seerah and Shama’il.

The author presents a comprehensive discussion of the exalted rank of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, his noble qualities, extraordinary virtues, miracles and the love and reverence that Muslims are required to have for him. The book is divided into four major sections, covering Allah’s honouring of the Prophet ﷺ, the rights and obligations of Muslims towards him, matters relating to his attributes and characteristics, and the Islamic rulings concerning those who insult or disrespect him.

Through Quranic verses, Prophetic narrations and scholarly discussions, Imam Qadi Iyad provides an extensive account of the greatness of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the importance of recognising his status and fulfilling his rights.

This edition, published by Dar Al-Ghad Al-Jadid and edited by Ahmad ibn Ali, is a valuable addition to the libraries of Islamic scholars, students of knowledge, researchers and readers interested in Prophetic Seerah, Hadith and the study of the noble character and status of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
