Radiances of the Verses: Translation of مشارق الآي

This book is an invitation to the Ummah (Islamic nation) as a whole to live with the Kitab (book) of its Rabb (Lord), to drink from its spring and ponder upon its meanings. That is because it is this Book which informs them of the features of good and evil, places in their hands the keys to the treasures of happiness, strengthens the Iman (belief) in their hearts and provides them with strength, delight, joy and happiness.

This book is composed of various articles related to the Nafs (self), creation and life and has been supported by the statements of the Awliyaa' (righteous servants of Allah) and the distinguished masters, coming together to conclude and state: There is no darkness when in the company of the light of the Wahy (divine revelation)!

It is an invitation to the Abd (Allahs slave) to enter the real world of life, and to live in the Horizons of the verses of Rememberance in the shadows of the words of the honourable Salaf (predecessors); so as to be a beacon for others and the project to revive the Ummah.
