As-salamu alaikum Brothers and Sisters
This month we commemorate 1500 years since the blessed birth of the Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ – a luminous occasion for us all to increase our ṣalawāt and to remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with love and gratitude.
On this occasion, we warmly recommend Hajj Anne’s work The Last Prophet (https://www.hicsalta.press/de/books/sayyiduna-muhammad), which uniquely explores the spiritual dimension of the Messenger ﷺ. An overview of further titles from our young publishing house can be found here: https://www.hicsalta.press/de/books
We also share with you a short film excerpt of the classical ṣalawāt, recited by Sheikh Mehmet Sultanımız following his sohbet in Lefke. In it, our little Abdurrahman may be seen once more overwhelming the Sheikh with kisses – as is his custom – before turning again towards me (with the green turban): https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=bugisW5IAeQch
May this anniversary be a source of light and baraka for us all.With best wishes and warm greetings,�Wa-s-salām,�Salim and Hagar Spohr
