    Why this book? 
    In many ways, Haber is one of those Spanish verbs that really does not get the attention it deserves. It constantly surprises us just how misunderstood and misused it is.  
    Even though Haber often plays a secondary role in our sentence structures and one of its biggest jobs is to work as a ‘helper’ verb, you will discover that Haber, is by no means a ‘runner up’ verb!  
    Once you learn to manage and use it in a fluent and controlled manner, your Spanish will move ahead leaps and bounds. 
    About this book. 
    This book is designed to take you from the basic yet vital uses of Haber all the way through to what some might describe as the most complex Spanish sentences you can make. It includes:  
    ·        Clear and unambiguous explanations 
    ·        Step by step progress through the tenses 
    ·        Frequent tests to check your understanding 
    ·        Interesting expressions used with Haber 
    ·        The Spanish Subjunctive in all of its glory! 
    We promise you that, once you have completed all of the chapters, your understanding of Haber will find itself exactly where it needs to be!

    Translated from the original Arabic into English, provides a vivid insight into the moral conduct of the early Muslims in a society led by the perfect character of the Prophet Muhammad, pbuh ('I was only sent to perfect good character.) The Prophet's Companions represent excellent examples of men of vigorous moral stature whose conduct inspired and attracted the masses to the fold of Islam wherever they went during the expansion of Muslim territories, and contrary to the stereotypic portrayal, in the West, of Islam as being spread by the sword. The Prophet's words are as relevant today as they were fourteen hundred years ago. This unique collection of 1322 ahadith and athar is one of the earliest and most authentic works on Islamic etiquette and the Islamic way of life. Not only are they practical and inspiring, they also fulfil a desperate need for authoritative guide on morality and spirituality for Muslims living in a modern, secular society, where the line between right and wrong is increasingly blurred. This book is an essential cornerstone of Islamic morality and is suitable for the general reader and the academic alike. Its author, Imam Bukhari (194-256AH / 810 - 870 CE) is the most celebrated figure in Islamic literary history. "Al-Adab Al-Mufrad" is an absolutely essential addition to every Islamic library.
