Illness and death

33 chapters

Illness and death is a section of al-Adhkar by Imam al-Nawawi. As its title indicates, its subject is illness, death and what is connected to them. In this app the entries appear as individual articles, and each article is attributed to its source, the Shamela edition of al-Adhkar edited by Arna'ut. There are 109 entries in this section, listed as they stand within it. What you read here is framing only; the articles themselves are inside the section. Everything works offline, so you can read it whenever you wish, wherever you are.
