Donate a Book

Share Breezes of the Elect with community groups, masjids, schools and Muslim prisoners

Update – Due to high demand, we have now allocated 1,700 books to be distributed, up from the initial 1,000. Please donate today to help us fulfill these requests.

 

School children, Muslim community groups, Mosques, new Muslims, Muslim prisoners…they are have one thing in common – they all share in love of the Prophet ﷺ – a love which is easily cultivated through the study and recitation of Prophetic praise poetry, as testified by countless generations.

 

Yet, for many, having access to meaningful material can be extremely difficult. Although we’ve kept our books at a reasonable price, it can still prove difficult to purchase for some. So here’s where we are reaching out for your help this Ramadan. 

Donating copies of Breezes of the Elect is an excellent Sadaqah Jāriyah (continuous chaity) that will bring years of reward, and for just £10 a book, it means we can get it into the hands of thousands more, in shā Allah. Each donation will provide a copy of the new A5 hardback edition, plus postage and packing to a worthy community organisation.

 

Every book you donate will be used to teach and sing from, all in emulation of the Prophet’s ﷺ companions.

 

Donate today what you can and help bring light to the hearts of many.

Raising Voices

From One Generous Gift to a Chorus of Incarcerated Sisters

In October 2023, a generous donor gifted ten copies of Breezes of the Elect to HMP Send, Woking. Sometime later, in January 2026, the prison chaplain reached out with a wonderful update: those original copies had become the foundation of a weekly singing circle, and she asked if we could send more. The sisters had used the books to learn the qasā’id and were now gathering every Friday to sing together and were eager to learn more.

 

The impact of this gift traveled even beyond the prison walls; one woman was so inspired by the poems, that she took her book with her upon being transferred, eventually establishing a new singing circle at her next location. These gatherings have become a beautiful space of inclusion, bringing together both Muslim and non-Muslim sisters.

Alhamdulillāh, we have since sent sixty additional copies, some as personal gifts for the women, and others for the libraries at HMP Send and HMP East Sutton Park to ensure these circles are supported and continue to grow. We have also sent copies to six other prisons across the UK, and we hope to continue donating books over the coming months and years with your help and support, both nationally and internationally.

 

These books are a means of sending blessings and peace upon our Prophet ﷺ, and a way of bringing light and comfort to our incarcerated brothers and sisters in moments of isolation, offering them hope and connection to the sacred.
