About Us

It all started with a search. We were looking for authentic Sunni texts in English, but no matter where we looked—online, in bookstores, in libraries—we kept coming up short. The few books we did find were either out of stock, overpriced, or difficult to access. It didn’t take long for us to realize that this wasn’t just our struggle. There was a real lack of Sunni texts in English available in the U.S., and we weren’t the only ones feeling it.

The more we searched, the clearer it became: students, teachers, and seekers across the country were facing the same problem. Whether someone was just starting their journey in Islamic studies or was deeply engaged in traditional learning, they all ran into the same roadblock—finding the right books was a challenge. It shouldn’t have to be this difficult. The texts that have carried Islamic scholarship for centuries should be easily accessible, yet they simply weren’t.

Determined to change this, we started looking beyond the U.S. Eventually, we managed to source a shipment of books from the U.K.—not just for ourselves, but for everyone who had been searching like we had. That shipment was just the beginning. What started as a personal effort to bring in a few books quickly turned into something bigger: a mission to make authentic Sunni knowledge widely available in the United States.

And so, our business was born. We are dedicated to making traditionally grounded Sunni scholarship accessible to anyone who seeks it. We know firsthand how frustrating it is to struggle to find the right books, and we don’t want anyone else to go through that. That’s why we’re constantly working to expand our collection, searching for and bringing in as many new titles as possible. Our goal is simple—to ensure that these essential works are always within reach, no matter where you are.

But for us, this is about more than just books. It’s about preserving and reviving the tradition of Islamic learning. It’s about making sure that students, teachers, and seekers have the resources they need to study, teach, and pass on knowledge. We’re honored to be part of that effort, and we’re excited to continue growing, learning, and serving our community.

Welcome to Hammad Books&Gifts. May this be a means of seeking knowledge, strengthening faith, and reviving our rich scholarly tradition.
