Respecting & Honouring Our Messenger ﷺ - Gems from 'The Shifa' (HB)

This book is an extract from one of the very greatest works in our tradition, the Shifa' of Qadi 'Iyad. The third such extract IGP has published in the past few years, Respecting & Honouring Our Messenger ﷺ is focused on the extraordinary level of respect shown towards the Prophet ﷺ by the early generations of Muslims.

Its seven sections include:

• Important verses of the Qur'an on the subject of honoring the Prophet ﷺ
• How the Companions رضي الله عنهم respected, honored, and revered the Prophet ﷺ
• Respecting the Prophet ﷺ after his death, and when mentioning him, and respect for his Ahl al-Bayt and his Companions رضي الله عنهم
• The respect of the Salaf for the transmission of Prophetic hadith and for his Sunnah
• The importance of respecting the Prophet's Family رضي الله عنهم as demonstrated by the Salaf
• Respect for the Companions رضي الله عنهم and devotion to them
• The respect held by the Prophet ﷺ for his possessions, for his locality, and for places he visited or that are well-known because of him ﷺ

Many of the narrations in this book are astonishing, even shocking. They force us to extend our imaginations, to try to fathom the immense honor in which the Companions رضي الله عنهم and the Salaf held Allah's Messenger ﷺ and everything associated with him. Despite the fact that they feel unattainable, almost otherworldly, these stories are vital for us, because they give us a glimpse of how the best generations رضي الله عنهم honored the Best of Creation ﷺ.
