**Lt_Apple** · 03-12-2012, 09:38 PM

Hope everybody is doing well inshaAllah.

I am looking for a good book about the sahabah, something to boost my imaan. I would appreciate if you could suggest something? What about the book "Men around the messenger", is it good?

What would you recommend?

for your help.

"Hayatus sahaba" is a Gem.

**Lt_Apple** · 03-12-2012, 09:57 PM

for your quick reply. I have Hayatus Sahaba, it definitely is a gem, however the one that I have doesn't have the best grammar which makes reading it a bit tidious.

I would greatly appreciate if you have more suggestions.

The new translation published by ZamZam Academy has good grammar. Do you have the new translation or the old one?

**replicajoy** · 03-12-2012, 10:31 PM

Actually, a similar book I'm seeking to get is Men & Women Around the Messenger. However, it's published by Darussalam, so I'm wondering if it's safe to get and/or read it...

Does anyone know if this book is safe?

The one we have is quite old, it's the first edition 1992. InshaAllah I will try to acquire the new one.

for letting me know..

I have the exact same dilemma. It will be nice if someone here could shed some light on this.

Is it the one translated in English by Mufti Afzal Hoosen Elias ?

Edit: published by Islamic book service?

No, it says it is translated by prof. Murtaz Husain fayaz Husain Quraishi, published by Idara Ishaat-E-Diniyat. I hope I have the right book, it looks quite old though.

brother, I should get the new one inshaAllah.

Do you have any idea about Daruussalam publications? Are they reliable?

Avoid.

I have a downloaded pdf of Hayatus Sahaba translated by Mufti Afzal Hoosen Elias. Download it here: http://islamicbookslibrary.wordpress...10/11/01/1336/

for the link, they have a good collection of books there.

**rammossyAcron** · 03-13-2012, 02:26 AM

I have some darussalam books - and I would say definitely avoid their books. They give half information and many times a twisted interpretation of events.

**replicajoy** · 03-13-2012, 05:02 AM

Is the Noble Life of the Prophet and History of Islam (3 Vol) okay? I think I searched here before that those two and Sealed Nectar as well, are safe?
