A best seller for the last 2 months and often gets out of stock the moment it appears on the book shelf.

Humility in Prayer.

This is a treatise we have written concerning Humility (Khusyu) and the hearts weakness and breaking before the Land.

The basic meaning of Khusyu is the softness of the heart, its being gentle, still, submissive, broken, and yearning. When the heart is humble, so too is the hearing, seeing, head, face; indeed all the limbs and their actions are humbled, even speech. This is why the Prophet saw in his bowing (ruku), "My Hearing, sight, bones and marrow are humbled to You." another narration has, "and whatever my foot carries".

One of the Salaf saw a man fidgeting in his prayer and remarked,"If the heart of this person was humble, so too would his limbs be". The source of the "Khushu", that takes place in the heart is the gnosis of Allah's greatness, magnificence and perfection. The more gnosis a person has of Allah, the more Khushu he has. The greatest action of worship which manifests the Khushu, of the body of Allah is the prayer (salah), Allah praise those who has khushu in their prayers.

Al Hasan, may Allah have mercy on him said, "When you stand in prayer, stand in due obedience as Allah has ordered you, beware of negligence and looking ( here and there) , beware that Allah be looking at you while you are looking at something else, asking Allah for paradise and taking refuge with Him from Fire. Yet your heart is heedless, not knowing what the tongue is saying".

Hudfayah said,"The first thing you will lose of your religion will be Khusu and the last thing you will lose of your religion will be prayer, and it is well possible that there is no good in a person who prays, and soon will come to a time when you enter a large Masjid and not see a single person Khushu".

This small treatise deals with the correct and accurate meaning of Khushu, and with three extremely beneficial appendixes.

Our Services

In this global world, one can view and watch events from all across the globe due to the advancement of technology. Today we don't even have to leave home to watch a LIVE World Cup match via television. Similarly the internet has the same capability too except that its much cheaper to implement compared to using the Television Stations and other forms of mediums.

Since 2010, our company have since broad casted several events, seminars and weddings via the Internet to benefit the global community.

Imagine having a relative in England being able to watch your wedding ceremony from Singapore just by logging on the computer. Would that be convenient for them? It gives the opportunity for the busy relatives to witness these events and activities wherever there is stable or broadband connections.
