Description :

Ulum-e-Mustafa is the urdu translation of 'ad-Dawlat al-Makkiyya bil-Madatil-Ghaybiyya'|

Originaly written in arabic by the Reviver of Islam, Imam-e-Ahl al-Sunnat, 'AlaHadrat' Shaykh Imam Ahmad Raza Khan, 'alayhi ar-Rahman w'al Ridwan. This Urdu translation by 'Hujjat al Islam' - Shaykh Hamid Raza Khan, rahmatullahi 'alayhi, who is the eldest son of Shaykh Imam Ahmad Raza Khan, may Allah sanctify his secret.

Ad-Dawlat al-Makkiyya bil-Madatil-Ghaybiyya ... 'The Meccan Authority on the Subject of the Unseen' is a masterpiece by AlaHadat on the Beloved Prophet's, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallams, Ilm al-Ghayb - Knowledge of the Unseen.

This work was written in Makkah tul Mukarramah, and endorsed by virtually every senior arab scholar of that time. It is considered a contemporary classic, such is the research and depth of the argument, which is quite remarkable considering Sayyidi AlaHadrat, 'alayhi ar-Rahman, wrote this work within a few days and without no access to other sources for reference.
