This is a short compilation containing 40 prophetic reports, as was the norm among Muslim scholars across the ages. I decided to compile it after seeing the effects that the coronavirus is having on the world—we pray to Allāh that He lifts this affliction from the face of the earth. I divided it into nine chapters, each covering a basic theme, though inevitably, as the reader shall notice, there are some which overlap. The chapters are: on plagues and trials, along with an encouragement to be patient and to anticipate Allāh’s reward; on being prepared and taking precautionary measures; on supplications; on solitude and self-isolation; on upholding people’s rights; on communal behaviour and good conduct; a counsel concerning the rights of spouses, children and maintaining a congenial environment at home; on martyrdom and harbouring good thoughts about Allāh, and, finally, a chapter containing a comprehensive hadith.
