The one who has the Dīwān needs no other book.”
— Imām al-Ḥaddād رحمه الله
I recently got my hands on Pearls from the Dīwān of Imām al-Ḥaddād, and I wanted to share it because I believe there is great benefit for everyone within its pages.
This is the second book in the Breezes of the Elect series, bringing together poetry, wisdom and profound reminders that speak to the mind, heart and soul.
One thing that particularly caught my attention is the connection to the blessed Prophet ﷺ.
A couplet from Imām al-Ḥaddād's poetry is inscribed at the blessed chamber of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Al-Masjid an-Nabawī, Madinah, praising the tremendous character of our beloved Prophet ﷺ.
The Qur’an itself says:
“And indeed, you are truly of outstanding character.”
— Qur’an 68:4
There is something powerful about keeping books like this close — not simply to read, but to reflect, learn and transform ourselves.
If you haven't come across Pearls from the Dīwān before, I would encourage you to seek out a copy and benefit from it. 📚❤️
May Allah increase us in knowledge, wisdom, beautiful character and love for His beloved Messenger Muhammad ﷺ. آمين 🤲🏼
