WHY DO YOUR TASBIHS SELL OUT SO QUICKLY?
Our craft is a very time-intensive one. It takes many days of diligent work to craft a quality Tasbih.

We ship within 24 hours and depending on your shipping choice you should receive your set within 10 business days.
WHAT IS YOUR RETURN POLICY?
We offer a 30 day policy. Simply contact our customer support team and you will be in good hands.
WILL I PAY CUSTOMS?
We do all we can to clear customs before our work is shipped. Many countries allow us to pre-pay customs and we always do. That being said, there are times when customers may be charged customs, but this is very rare.
ARE YOUR STONES AUTHENTIC?
Yes. We take great care to source the finest natural materials.
WHAT IS A TASBIH?
A Tasbih is a set of beads used to keep count of sacred recitations (Zikr) in the Islamic Tradition.
Performing Zikr with presence and concentration is considered by Muslims to be a spiritual practice that is fundamental to spiritual well-being.
It is with the Tasbih, that one’s full attention can be placed upon the sacred recitations in a manner that is believed to be transformative.
The Tasbih’s use is well established in Islamic history with references to it dating back to the prophetic era.
There are well-documented reports of close companions (disciples) of the Holy Prophet (SAW) using tools such as a knotted thread and even clear indications that the Prophet’s own wife (Safiyah) would use pebbles to keep count of her Zikr.
Over the next two centuries, the Tasbih’s iconic appearance took shape, and it became arguably the most central object of the spiritual Muslims’ life.
Because of the intimate place the Tasbih held in their lives, Muslims began to consider it as a close companion that represented one’s unique path and experience.
Over time, Muslim Artists expressed this deep love by developing a rich craft that sought to produce Tasbihs that could both withstand the test of time and also inspire the believer with dazzling aesthetics.
A large diversity of Tasbih styles soon developed as each Muslim civilization’s artists crafted sets that reflected the cultures unique taste.
This evolution is markedly similar to the Qur’anic calligraphy tradition, which began as a means to simply preserve the Quranic text but soon evolved to one of the wonders of the traditional world.
As with the Misbah, this development was simply the Artists' expression of the believers' love and reverence.
