It is a very common thing for Muslims to express their respect and love for Allah Almighty, Holy Prophet HazratMuhammad (P.B.U.H), the companions of the Prophet and his family members through poetry. This is one of the reasons why poetry has a huge role and impact in Islam. Hence the popularity of salam books is completely understandable and justified. Manqabat books are the books that are a collection of such respectful poems and verses expresses love and respect for the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) and his family.
Sometimes manqabats are also used to narrate an important incident of Islamic history in a poetic manner. There is a vast and diverse collection of Soz books online on our book store.

In a traditional majlis, the story of the Battle of Karbala is told in three parts: soz khwani, marsiya khwani (where chapters are recited) and nauha khwani (mourning). However, to connect with the audience, Naqvi tells the entire story of the battle only through soz khwani though he has added some commentary and dialogues.
The writing and reciting of requiems in Urdu and Awadhi, known variously as marsiya, salam, nauha or soz, are a part of a religious, literary and musical tradition which goes back well over 300 years. Though their origins lie in Persia and Arabia, it was absorbed into the Indian ethos, picking up local dialects and symbols.
A year ago, he had been a part of a presentation on the marsiya tradition recitation at the India International Centre where vocal musicians such as Vidya Rao and Shubha Mudgal encouraged him to consider honing his skills at soz khwani as a performing art.
We regret to announce that due to difficulties with the visa application process, Professor Sibt-e Ja'far Zaidi will be unable to perform. We are sorry to miss the opportunity to hear his recitations after our months of preparation, but are pleased to announce that reciter Yawar Abbas of London has graciously agreed to join us and recite taht-ul-lafz marsiyah. The program will continue as scheduled, with both soz and marsiyah by Syed Ghulam-us-Saqlain Naqvi and Yawar Abbas. We look forward to seeing you there.

Saqlain (Shanne) Naqvi is an excellent amateur reciter of soz and marsiyah with a vast repertoire of classical poetry, which he performs in declamatory or melodic modes. Naqvi hails from a prominent Shi'a clan whose mourning assemblies in the rural township of Mustafabad, Uttar Pradesh, India, are still remarkable for their intensity and high literary quality. Shanne's mother, Begam Atiya Naqvi of Lucknow, and his aunt, Aliya Imam of Karachi, are also aficionados of the marsiyah and talented reciters. Naqvi grew up in Mustafabad and Lucknow, was educated in Delhi, and now lives in Lucknow. More information: on the Harvard website.
