Hizbul Azam – A book on daily dua.

It is a Prayer book with Prayers from the Qur’an & Sunnah
The book has Daily Prayers for the Entire Month (Divided into 29 Manzils)

It is written by Mullah Ali Qari who is one of the great Hanafi masters of hadith and Imams of fiqh, Qur’anic commentary, language, history and tasawwuf. He has authored several great commentaries such as al-Mirqat on Mishkat al-masabih in several volumes.

Mulla Ali Qari has said in his preface : “If you read this compilation daily, it is very good. If that is not possible, then it should be read weekly, or monthly, or even once a year; and if even that is not possible then at least once in a lifetime.”

As people, sometimes, are not able to read the entire collection of ‘duas’ in seven days, this Al-Hizb-ul-A’zam has been divided into 29 Manzils’, one for each day of the month. Every Manzil starts with the ‘Hamd’ followed by the Durood’ and then other ‘duas’. The order has been changed, but nothing has been added to, or removed from the original text.
