Here are ideal stockists from which to purchase items mentioned in my blogs and just for those new to Islam generally. Please note not all stores stock an entirely authentic range; therefore use your judgement and common sense. I have tried to only recommend such stores in the sectors where most items in that sector are authentic. I am aware that there are many other sites selling similar items online; however these listed here are the ones I have either had personal good experience with; or those close to me have. Also they tend to have the largest selection possible. However if you yourself have a new site yourself; or that you have ordered from that perhaps I have not previously come across, I would love to hear about it InshaAllaah!
Books and Audio
The following stores I have either had great experience personally with; or those close to me have. I particularly recommend Salafibookstore as their service is top-notch and they send most items by a courier MashaAllaah; however they tend to add a whole bunch of books at once rather than the new titles as soon as they come out.
Magazines
Put that copy of Cosmopolitan away! Sometimes if you’re a big reader of magazines; it can be difficult to give them up. However there are nice, halal alternatives out there; InshaAllaah.
Islamic attire
Here I have tried to include those sites that particularly cater for those sisters who wish to cover more conservatively; i.e. with darker colours, niqaab and/or gloves and very loose fitting or worn-from-the-head overgarments. Even when dressed in a conservative way there is no excuse for looking dishevelled or wearing worn out clothing; we should still look smart. As a bonus; many of the sites below do custom tailoring on their overgarments MashaAllaah. For the man in your life; several also do garments for the brothers MashaAllaah; and some also have a childrens’ selection.
Love Unspoken (US)[not currently taking new orders]
Purely-Elegant (US; but ships from Egypt)
Dar us Salam London (UK have range of shoulder and overhead abayas)
Indoor Attire and Accessories
These are the sites with lovely items for wearing amongst other sisters or your husband. As Muslimahs we still have no excuse for dressing like a tramp under our outer-garments; we should strive to have the best appearance especially in the home InshaAllaah.
Beauty Products
This section will InshaAllaah have links to items such as Henna, Traditional remedies and beauty products from around the Muslim world.
Childrens Books and Toys
Here are some stores that stock a good selection of Islamic books for Children; and also some sell toys that are according to The Qur’an and Sunnah; and of benefit in teaching children the deen and/or the Arabic language.
Homeschool and Arabic Resources
This section has goods specifically aimed at the Islamic homeschooling and Arabic-learning market; while many of the products are aimed primarily at Children and Young Adults; many are useful to people of any age.
Foods
No-one is saying here that to be a Muslim you have to eat special foods from any particular culture; however clearly certain foods are haram (such as flavourings containing alcohol) and there are suitable alternatives available; also some of the middle-eastern foods are really nice!
Vanilla Works (sells non-alcoholic vanilla extract)
Household Items
This section is for General household items a Muslim may find beneficial, i.e. prayer mats, table linen etc.
