Nasamāt fī Taqrīb al-Wuṣūl - Songs in Nearing Arrival

Nasamat is a collection of songs, divided in two parts - ila hubbi ‘Llah (unto love of Allah), and ila hubbi ‘r-Rasul ﷺ (unto love of the Messenger ﷺ), aiding you in understanding of the content of each song, and reflection over their meanings.
