Nalain - Earth Greeting Card

Description: Greeting card - watercolour painting of the Nalain finished in vivid earthy colours.

The Story: The Na’layn are the blessed sandals of the Messengerﷺ which were used by Him ﷺ during his ﷺ life. Here, we show some of the benefits one can be blessed with by keeping and honouring ourselves with a copy of the sacred Na’layn – not the actual or original Blessed sandal of our Messenger ﷺ but a symbolic motif or image.

The practice of honouring relics (tabarruk) was common among the Companions of Messenger ﷺ. The noble Companions gave the utmost respect to the relics of Messenger ﷺ and used to seek blessings from the reminders they had left of Messenger ﷺ during his lifetime.

Abu Ishaq said: al-Qasim ibn Muhammad, son of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq R.A, said: Of the proven blessing of the likeness of the Prophet’s sallallahu alaihe wasallam (S.A.W) sandal is that whoever has it in his possession for tabarruk, it will safeguard him from the sedition of rebels and the mastery of enemies, and will be a barrier against every recreant devil and the evil eye of the envious. If the pregnant woman holds it in her right hand at the time of labour, her delivery will be easier by Allah’s change and His might.

Al-Qastallani relates the account of a pious shaykh by the name of Abu Ja`far Ahmad ibn `Abd al-Majid: I cut the pattern of this sandal for one of my students. He came to me one day and said: “I saw a wonder yesterday from the blessing of this sandal. My wife was suffered from a pain which almost took her life. I placed the sandal on the spot of her pain and said: O Allah subhana watallah (S.W.T), show me the blessing of the owner of this sandal. Allah cured her on the spot.”
