Selections from Hujjat Allah al-Balighah

Selections from Hujjat Allah al-Balighah presents significant passages from the celebrated masterpiece of Shah Wali Allah al-Dehlawi, one of the most influential Muslim scholars of eighteenth-century South Asia.

Originally written in Arabic, Hujjat Allah al-Balighah—often translated as The Conclusive Argument from God—explores the wisdom, purposes and spiritual foundations behind Islamic teachings. Shah Wali Allah explains how the Qur’an, the Sunnah and the commands of the Shariah contribute to individual purification, social harmony and success in the Hereafter.

The selected passages address a broad range of subjects, including faith, worship, ethics, Hadith, Islamic law, human psychology, society, economics, governance and spiritual development. This concise edition offers readers an accessible introduction to the principal ideas of a much larger and more demanding classical work.
