For more than eight centuries, Bash?'ir al-Khayr?t (The ?alaw?t of Shaykh ?Abd al-Q?dir al-J?l?n?) has illuminated the spiritual lives of believers seeking relief, forgiveness, and nearness to Allah. Attributed to the revered Sul??n al-Awliy??, this celebrated collection stands among the most beloved devotional compositions in the Muslim world. Its ?alaw?t, heartfelt du???, and pleas for divine openings have offered generations of seekers a deeper connection with the Beloved, peace and blessings be upon him.

Today, in an age marked by distraction and restlessness, this collection continues to call the heart back to remembrance. It is a superlative set of thirty prayers upon the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, intertwined with almost seventy verses of the Qur'an. It gives hope and encouragement to twenty-seven types of Muslims, from the grieving to the indebted, from the fearful to those seeking guidance and divine openings.
