About The Book
An abridged commentary of the Ratib of Imam al-Haddad
In this short book, the main part of Habib Alawi's commentary is presented, as he describes it as the heart and essence of the book.
It explains the nineteen litanies of the Ratib al-Haddad, illustrating the source of each invocation and the benefits with references to the Quran and the Hadiths of the Prophet (Peace & blessings be upon him).
It is hoped that this short but valuable translation of the commentary will act as a doorway to the larger translation of the commentary and provide readers with an immediate benefit to its blessings, for all those who are seeking Allah through the greatest of paths; the path of His remembrance.
