Al-Kafi, Volume 1 of 8 (Usul al-Kafi) - Compiled by Thiqatu al-Islam, Abu Ja’far Muhammad ibn Ya’qub al-Kulayni; English Translation by Shaykh Muhammad Sarwar. Al-Kafi - The first and foremost comprehensive book of Hadith of the Holy Prophet, with his Ahl al-Bayt as narrators, dealing with issues of theology and ethics, practical laws such as laws of taharat (cleanliness), laws of worship (prayer, zakat, fasting, hajj and jihad), laws of business, laws of family and social relations, and judicial laws. Review: Outstanding - Core to the Islamic faith is that Islam is not merely a religion but a way of life. In my humble opinion, after the Holy Quran and Nahjul Balagha, the books of Al-Kafi offer among the most obvious illustrations of the very practical applications of Islamic teachings and ideals in improving the self. I am finding the translation very accessible and easy to understand, and am extremely thankful to have obtained this. I think anyone sincerely interested in self improvement will find plenty here to nourish the mind, heart, and soul. Review: A beautiful translation of Hadith associated with the Shia tradition - A beautiful translation of Hadith associated with the Shia tradition. Translation is clear and understandable and well thought out. Being a newcomer to Jafari tradition myself, this is a good fast reference to the world of Hadith compiled in relation to the ahlul bayt. A really good buy at 20 dollars a volume. Will make my studies more complete. Hope to complete the complete set before they run out! Shukran jazillian for having these available!

Astonishingly profound wisdom!
Shalom, I am a lifelong student of God and a mystic with interests spreading across all world religions, including shamanism and other earth based spiritual traditions. My root beliefs are contained within the Abrahamic faiths and specifically the mystical tradition of Judaism. This very large...and affordable book is filled with profound wisdom and teachings from the Shia Hadith tradition.

An amazing book
That is a wonderful book, and it might have been even more helpful if the grading or commentry of each hadith had been included. But nonetheless it's a good book.

Very interesting
Good translation. I think this haddiths are very interesting and with a great sense of tolerance. The first two books deal about spiritual contents and the others deal with lawful deeds.

Condizioni perfette e Libro con principi per questa vita e la prossima
Il libro è arrivato in condizioni perfette. Non l'ho ancora letto ma da quanto ho sentito dai miei genitori è un libro che spiega come vivere la vita secondo Islam e principi morali ed etici da seguire. Sarebbe stato meglio se il venditore avesse fatto una suddivisione dei capitoli che ogni volume tratta anche se ritengo che sia meglio leggerli tutti. Mashallah

SO HAPPY TO HAVE THIS IN ENGLISH! Must buy for english readers, even non-muslims may enjoy!
This is a beautifully translated book, very good price also. JazakAllah kheir for making these habith books accessible for English readers. The opening pages invite feedback on the translations which I also found reassuring, inshAllah it will get better and better but I am thrilled with my copy and plan to buy all 8. I think every Muslim needs a copy of the hadith and history books in their home.
