Ash-Shifa bi ta'rif huquq al-mustafa

''Al-Shifa bi Ta'rif Huquq al-Mustafa'', ( ar, الشفا بتعريف حقوق المصطفى, ''The Remedy by the Recognition of the Rights of the Chosen One uhammad ﷺ'), of Qadi Ayyad (d. 544H / 1149CE) is perhaps the most frequently used and commented upon handbook in which Muhammad's ﷺ life, his qualities and his miracles are described in every detail. Generally known by its short title, ''ash-Shifa'' or ''al-Shifa'' (''The Healing''), this work was so highly admired throughout the Muslim world that it soon acquired a sanctity of its own, for it is said, "If ''al-Shifa'' is found in a house, this house will not suffer any harm... when a sick person reads it or it is recited to him, Allah ﷻ will restore his health."

''Ash-Shifa'' remains one of the most commentated books of Islam after the ''Sahih's'' of Muhammad al-Bukhari and Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj. Commentaries and partial explanations written on ''al-Shifa'' include:
