I loved the cinematography used, I loved the digital music used, the nasheeds, it touched me quite deeply, I love the way the brothers journey provided him with the sakina he wanted to feel, the deep reflection he became apart of, the sounds that were voiced from his soul, heard by Allah, I loved the realisation he possessed of Allah…
The video harboured many qualities, i.e. peace, tranquillity; I loved the way the journey took him, rather then him taking the journey…
I find sitting here in foggy old in England, your soul can travel to the most amazing places, show you clarity, love and serenity, all through the means of another (in this case a visual video) …
My Allah reward you for carrying souls along with you on this spiritual journey… and may he grant you what lies in your hearts and hearts of the Ummah...

Asalaamu 'alaikum,
Subhanallah, I can't believe I never heard of this site before... Jazakum Allahu Khairan for the wealth of knowledge and inspiration you offer to millions through this site. I loved the documentaries on Tarim, esp. that of the brother visiting the Maqam of S. hud ('alaihi salaam)... That was beautifully done masha'Allah. May Allah facilitate the Path to 'ilm and ma'arifa for those of us who yearn for it, and who yearn to be in the blessed valley of Hadramawt. Ameen!

I love your site Masya Allah... May Allah bless you all with
your works and I envy all those who are always close to
the Habaib...And Habib Ali!! Masya Allah! What else can I
say? I fell in love with him just by looking at his photos! I
was also wondering, have Habib Ali bin Abdurrahman Al-
Jifri met Habib Ali bin Jaafar Al-
Aydrus of Batu Pahat Malaysia? if so do you have their
photos?
Syukran wa Jazzakallah.

Thank you for the Wird download as I now use it in the morning. But the Salawat MP3 should have been preceded by a warning!
I clicked play on the file and then I became frozen!
Imprisoned by meditation on the one God has chosen!
I played it again and again as my emotions shuffled.
I covered my face that my weeping be muffled.
But they only increased and the attempt in vain!
As the downpour intensified like April's sweet rain.
For such a hardened heart tis' a moment rare like mutton.
Amazing what can happen at the click of a few buttons!

Asaalamu Alaikum,
Alhumdulilah, The Thousand Year Journey is an outstanding film that connects so many Muslims, especially those in the US and Europe, with such a blessed place in Yemen and allows through the narrative of the brother in the film a real understanding of the importance of making the journey to purify oneself and increase one's love of God and His Messenger, God's Blessings and
Peace be upon him.

Assalamu alaikum..
my words could never do justice.. the videos are simply beautiful. The brother's Hud trip really captures not only the spiritual power of the trip itself but everything else in terms of the Love of the Habaib, the brotherhood.. the 'presence'... you can really feel the immensity of what we all have.. the greatness of this blessing..The blessing of our heritage, of our Deen. May Allah bless all those who work for GuidanceMedia.. Thank you for spreading the light of the children of the Messenger of Allah (salalahu alayhi wasalam) thereby bringing hearts to life, in a time when we are truly in need.

What else can I say after seeing sublime magnificence in the "The Thousand Year Journey"? I thank Allah for creating you, this film, it's producers, this site, it's webmaster and the internet.

Guidance Media incapsulate the reason I converted to Islam in their videos. What is our faith without the spiritual peace and love of the habaib. I pray for the continuance of this good work and also to all those people who are behind this technical website... Alhumdulillah an oasis at our fingertips...

Assalaamu Alaikum. After having visited this site I feel that my words of compliments will not suffice. However I will make a futile attempt to express my joy... SUBHAN ALLAH this site is amazing. May Allah reward all those who took part in building it. Having today watched certain clips I saw the Shayukh in a different and most amzing light, I was in complete awe of them and I was overwhelmed by just their posture and emotion for the love of The Nur of Allah, Sayyidina Muhammad (peace and blessing be upon him. Again I would like to thank all those who set this all up and All Praise is For Allah.
