Sayings of the Prophet (SAW)
The first book within the series deals with the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), chosen and translated in simple and clear language. Abdur Raheem Kidwai selects hadiths that touch the heart, mind, and soul and discuss subjects like sincerity, patience, character, and seeking knowledge.
These maxims are followed by brief discussion that facilitates reflection and everyday use. The readers are reminded of the Prophet’s justice, mercy, and wisdom, and thus this book becomes a spiritual guide for those who wish to follow his example in their daily lives.
Sayings of the Companions
The second volume contains the insights of the Prophet’s companions men who lived among him, learned from him, and emulated his ways. Their words demonstrate profound insight, humility, and commitment to Islam. This volume illumines their values and nature.
Readers will be treated to quotes from great friends such as Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali (may Allah be pleased with all of them). Each entry serves to link the contemporary Muslim to the rich heritage of the early generation of Islam and their life-applicable advice.
Islamic Prayers and Supplications
The third book contains prayerfully chosen du’as from the Quran and true hadith. They include daily needs, times of difficulty, thanking Allah, asking for guidance, and turning to Him in repentance. Every prayer is transliterated, translated, and explained so that readers can understand and memorize.
This book is an excellent reference for the inclusion of purposeful du’as in one’s life. It invites readers to approach Allah often, establishing close bonding through prayer and remembrance in times of happiness and adversity.

Language and Presentation
Abdur Raheem Kidwai translates the material in plain, readable English so that one can easily comprehend even if Islamic literature is not familiar. Arabic is included wherever necessary, but the concentration is more on making it easy to understand and reflect upon.
The design is minimalist and welcoming, with each day’s posting isolated to prevent clutter. The readers will love the simplicity and elegance of the design, which encourages reflection without distraction. It’s a soft daily reminder to take a moment and reconnect with faith.
A Source of Daily Reflection
The design promotes regular spiritual practice. Rather than presenting readers with long chapters, it provides bite-sized material to reflect on during the day. This is especially helpful in today’s day and age, when most struggle to focus amidst distractions.
By spending only a few minutes each day reading these pages, people are able to start changing their mindset, solidifying their moral compass, and getting closer to Allah. It becomes a reflection and development habit that, over the years, pays off in its own way.
Subsidiary Personal Growth
Each of the books in the series encourages individuals toward personal development and moral greatness. The hadiths encourage mercy, veracity, and humility. The companion sayings exemplify bravery and service. The prayers instruct dependence on Allah and eternal thanksgiving.
This pairing feeds both the mind and soul. It’s perfect for personal development, religious retreats, or group studies. Parents, teachers, and mentors can utilize the series as a catalyst for topics and reminders.
Perfect for Ramadan and Beyond
Although the books may be read throughout the year, they are particularly effective during Ramadan. The daily format complements the month’s emphasis on spiritual rejuvenation. Families can read a choice together after iftar or suhoor, making it a beloved tradition.
Even outside of Ramadan, these books assist in keeping the momentum going with faith and worship. They promote continuity in engaging with Islamic teachings and act as a useful tool in maintaining faith alive amidst worldly distractions.
Why Every Muslim Should Have It
In an era when consistency in religious study eludes so many Muslims, the Daily Wisdom Series offers a doable, motivational alternative. It’s not only a reading experience it’s an improvement on one’s life, page by page.
