About Idris Kamal

Idris Kamal has been publishing Islamic books for two decades. He seeks to design and produce books with Ihsan. He is a book enthusiast who has a keen interest in Arwi (Arabic Tamil), the spread of Islam in Tamil Nadu, and the history and heritage of Tamil-speaking Muslims around the world.

Idris meticulously and lovingly executed the design of the Shama'il al-Muhammadiyya published in 2020 by the Imam Ghazali Institute. In this session he will speak about the design of this landmark work as well as on book design in general.

About the Book:
Al-Shama'il al-Muhammadiyya is the most famous collection of narrations detailing the moral, physical, and spiritual perfections of the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. Commonly referred to as 'The Shama'il' and compiled by the prolific Imam al-Tirmidhi, this perennial masterpiece connects hearts to the Prophet's blessed being. The Shama'il generously invites us to experience the most detailed and exquisite qualities of the message-bearer – the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. This knowledge fundamentally alters, informs, and orients our understanding of the Message he brought.
