Suggested reading

Alhamdulillah the Jama’at has produced some excellent books and one should try to read as many of these as possible as you progress in your spiritual development. Many of these books have now been made available on PDF. Naturally, everyone is different and has different interests, therefore, you may feel that you prefer different books to read, or you may not be inclined to reading and prefer to watch videos or listen to tapes. Another way of gaining knowledge is by attending the various different meetings and discussion groups or just by asking questions. Our suggested reading is as follows:
