t is with great pleasure that The Islamic Foundation imprint steps into its fortieth Ramadan this year*, an achievement that would have been impossible without the support and enthusiasm from you, our customers. We would like to thank you all individually but as this isn’t possible please accept our thanks and prayers for your part in helping our organisation to endure the test of time.
It is a privilege to publish books for Muslims, but also a responsibility, and our aim at Kube is to build on this legacy and look to meet the demands and needs the next forty years will bring. Despite the challenges we all face, the future is full of opportunity. And with the spirit of faith that has helped us continue before, belief in the importance of knowledge and learning will help us carry on the important work we all do. This Ramadan we are pleased to introduce A Treasury of Hadith, the first in a new gift book line that will appeal to seekers of knowledge. We have also published She Wore Red Trainers, the first halal love story for teenage readers by Na’ima B. Robert and A Whisper of Peace, another collection of classic songs by Dawud Wharnsby. Also inside you will find further new titles, Ramadan highlights and the latest items we are distributing. *The Islamic Foundation published its first book, Towards Understanding Islam, in 1974.

Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Devoted worshiper, loving father, caring husband, The model of love, the embodiment of mercy, the pride of humanity, The beloved of hearts, the educator of minds, The trainer of souls, the ruler of spirits, The cause of existence, the reason for creation, The most illustrious fruit of the Tree of Creation…
Prophet Muhammad: The Sultan of Hearts details the exemplary life of Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him.
Without breaking away from the tradition of sirah, or biography of the noble Prophet, the book elaborates on the life of the Prophet by revealing many details.
The emphasis of the book is on the mission of the beloved Prophet in society as an active member rather than an overemphasis on the wars fought—all of which did not even make up a total of two months in his 63-year life.
The book is not a chronological look into the life of the Prophet as he progressed from point A to point B, but rather an exclusive look into his character, attributes and qualities through the eyes of his Companions and Family most closest to him. On the one hand the book draws an intimate portrait of a gentle husband, an affectionate father and a faithful friend, while on the other hand it recounts the dramatic expeditions of a brave leader and military genius. From �ighting oppression and slavery within his society to �ighting for his people�s rights and freedoms on the battle�ield, the book captures a life that was oftentimes momentous, captivating and inspiring. Brimming with passion and emotion, Prophet Muhammad: The Sultan of Hearts transports the reader to the Arabian Peninsula centuries ago, as if lifting the constraints of time and space, and allows them to wonder around, discover and explore with freedom the Age of Happiness. Reşit Haylamaz is the editor-in-chief of Kaynak Publishing Group in Istanbul. He has many publications on the lives of Prophet Muhammad and His leading Companions. His Gö nü l Tahtımızın Eşsiz Sultanı Efendimiz is the best-selling biography of Prophet Muhammad in his native Turkish. BIOGRAPHY / RELIGION / ISLAM ISBN: 978-1-59784-299-0

LEADING COMPANIONS OF THE PROPHET
UMAR IBN AL-KHATTAB
Umar abandoned anything material and strove for Islam regardless of his life and wealth. This state pleased the Messenger of God. When he spoke with the Companions about Umar, he would say: “There is no angel on earth that does not pay respect to Umar. There is no devil on earth that does not run away from Umar.” Because Umar pleased God as well, one day God Almighty ordered His Messenger to tell Umar that he would be granted Paradise. The Messenger of God told Umar this good news, and Umar felt extremely joyful and embraced the Messenger of God. Despite this good news, he never felt comfortable and certain about himself; he struggled for this holy goal until the last minute of his life.
