It also covers a wide range of topics and features cross-references which draw attention to related subjects.

Given the fact that some of these Islamic teachings and concepts have been forgotten by many Muslims, and given the fact that some of them have been given wrong definitions or interpretations by some non-Muslims, either deliberately or out of ignorance, an effort has been made here to present these teachings and concepts in their true light and clear picture.

The definitions cover a wide range of concepts as well as some of the well-known Prophets and Messengers of Allah, may Allah's peace be upon them all, the significance of certain important Islamic occasions, the benefits of the observance of certain practices and a short biography of the four rightly-guided caliphs who helped shape the destiny of the new faith.

The subject of the jinn is one which is of interest to many people. Folk stories abound, and many superstitious practices have arisen in Muslim cultures with regard to protection against the jinn. Many myths surround the ideas of the evil eye and envy, and there are many strange notions surrounding illnesses such as epilepsy and mental illness, which are often thought of as being caused by the jinn.

This book cuts through all the confusion and identifies correct Islamic teachings on all these subjects. The jinn are real and they can indeed harm humans, but this book will teach you how to protect yourself in the manner taught by the Prophet (peace be upon him).

Break free from fear, superstition and fairy stories, and familiarize yourself with the teachings of Islam on these important aspects of spirituality which the author presents here, drawing on the texts of the Qur'an and Sunnah and the writings of the respected scholars of Islam.

Does it ever seem to you that fun and Islam don't go together? Can there be anything like 'halal fun' and 'halal entertainment'? In this authentic Islamic book, 'Having Fun the Halal Way: Entertainment in Islam', byIsmail Kamdar, the author explores the Islamic guidelines on entertainment and advocates a balanced approach to this topic. This Islamic book about entertainment suggests handy Sharia-compliant ways to have fun in one's daily life.

With the advent of technology, the entertainment industry has flourished and become immensely popular. Combine this with the exponential advances in technology, and the result is an increasing number of ways to amuse ourselves. As a result of such advances, Muslim react in a variety of manners towards entertainment. Some label entertainment as completely forbidden. This sometimes includes parents who say no to almost everything that their young ones deem to be ‘fun’, without providing them with suitable alternatives. Others, who do not want to take this extreme approach, fall into the trap of excessive use of – and even addiction to – various sources of entertainment, without any limits. In Having Fun the Halal Way, Ismail Kamdar explores the teachings of Islam regarding entertainment. Drawing upon the Quran, the Sunnah and the understanding of the righteous scholars of Islam, he provides a detailed and balanced analysis of the topic. He not only explains the detriments of the current entertainment industry, but also suggests alternative means to have a good time with friends and family members.

Is it humanly possible to become an ideal Muslim in this world? In this authentic Islamic book, Dr. Muhammad Ali al-Hashimi guides the readers to practically adopt an Islamic personality and lifestyle, and interact accordingly with others in the society. This Islamic self-help book is a must-read for self-development and self-improvement. It is also a rich source of material and ideas for study circles and discussion groups.

In all areas of life, we can learn through the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). There are many lessons to learn by his example. They lead us to believe that the good personality traits of a Muslim are ones that naturally propel us to be closer to Allah. In this book we examine proofs from the Qur’an and the Sunnah that give us an idea about those characteristics that will guide us in our hearts and actions to be better people in the eyes of our Creator. This extremely useful and bestselling book was translated into English by Nasiruddin al-Khattab. From the translator: The author gives a clear overview of the practical aspects of the Islamic lifestyle, as exemplified by the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and his Companions. Moving from the innermost aspect of the individual’s spiritual life to his dealings with all those around him, one can see how the Muslim is expected to interact with all others in his life. This book is valuable for individual self-development, but will also serve as a rich source of material and ideas for study circles and discussion groups. The author supports each point with extensively evidential quotations from the Qur’an and Sunnah and gives us thereby an insight into the life of the first Muslim community in Madinah. At a time when alien influences are overwhelming Muslims throughout the world and the temptation to adopt un-Islamic ways is greater than ever, this book serves as a timely reminder to us to go back to our Islamic sources and to adhere to our distinct, divinely-ordained way of life. Dr. Muhammad Ali al-Hashimi is a well known writer in the Arab world. Born in Syria, he is the author of numerous works on Islamic and literary topics. This was the first of several of his books to be translated into English.

Description from the publisher: 

This introductory book on Islam serves as a good da'wah tool, explaining some of the fundamentals of Islam, as well signifying verses of the Qur'an and how they relate to science and the world around us. It is produced in full-color high quality glossy paper finish.

The first chapter, Some Evidence for the Truth of Islam, answers some important questions which some people ask:

n  Is the Quran truly the literal word of God, revealed by Him?

n  Is Muhammad (PBUH) truly a prophet sent by God?

n  Is Islam truly a religion from God?

In this chapter, six kinds of evidence are mentioned:

1)  The Scientific Miracles in the Holy Quran: This section discusses (with illustrations) some recently discovered scientific facts mentioned in the Holy Quran, which was revealed fourteen centuries ago.

2)  The Great Challenge to Produce One Chapter Like the Chapters of the Holy Quran: In the Quran, God challenged all human beings to produce a single chapter like the chapters of the Quran. Ever since the Quran was revealed, fourteen centuries ago, until this day, no one has been able to meet this challenge, even though the smallest chapter in the Quran (Chapter 108) is only ten words.

3)  Biblical Prophecies on the Advent of Muhammad (PBUH), the Prophet of Islam: In this section, some of the Biblical prophecies on the advent of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) are discussed.

4)  The Verses in the Quran That Mention Future Events Which Later Came to Pass: The Quran mentioned future events which later came to pass, for example, the victory of the Romans over the Persians.

5)  Miracles Performed by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH): Many miracles were performed by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).  These miracles were witnessed by many people.

6)  The Simple Life of Muhammad (PBUH): This clearly indicates that Muhammad (PBUH) was not a false prophet who claimed prophethood to attain material gains, greatness, or power.

From these six kinds of evidence, we conclude that:

n  The Quran must be the literal word of God, revealed by Him.

n  Muhammad (PBUH) is truly a prophet sent by God.

n  Islam is truly a religion from God.

If we would like to know if a religion is true or false, we should not depend on our emotions, feelings, or traditions. Rather, we should depend on our reason and intellect. When God sent the prophets, He supported them with miracles and evidence which proved that they were truly prophets sent by God and hence that the religion they came with is true.

The second chapter, Some Benefits of Islam, mentions some of the benefits that Islam provides for the individual, such as:

1)  The Door to Eternal Paradise

2)  Salvation from Hellfire

3)  Real Happiness and Inner Peace

4)  Forgiveness for All Previous Sins.

The third chapter, General Information on Islam, provides general information on Islam, corrects some misconceptions about it, and answers some commonly asked questions, such as:

n  What does Islam say about terrorism?

n  What is the status of women in Islam?

Publisher's Note:

THE title of this book, In the Early Hours, has been carefully and specifically chosen to highlight that precious but
often neglected time during the night that Allah is closest and most receptive to His servants. The Messenger of God
said:
Our Lord descends each night to the nearest Heaven when only the last third of the night remains, and says: `Is
anyone praying that I may answer him? Is anyone seeking forgiveness, that I may forgive him? Is anyone asking,
that I may give to him?', and this continues until dawn. (Tirmidhi.)
The later part of each night is the most conducive period for reflection and self development. It is the occasion with
the most potential for the heart to be present, alert and free of worldly concerns as the Quran declares: Lo! The vigil
of the night is [a time] when impression is more keen and speech more certain. [al-Muzzammil 73:6.]
This book is a collection of inspirational advice by a dear and beloved teacher, Ustadh Khurram Murad on the subject
of spiritual and self development. In it he sets out the goal of the Believer- the single-minded desire to seek the good
pleasure of Allah and Paradise. He then outlines the methods and instruments which must be used in the attainment
of that ultimate goal.
These spiritual exhortations that follow were originally delivered in those early hours of Summer 1993 just after Salat
al-Fajr as part of a course entitled Self Development for Islamic Workers at The Islamic Foundation, Leicester. That
course represented one of many similar courses Ustadh Khurram conducted for young Muslims, both male and
female. He recognised that it was in the young generation's eagerness, strength and enthusiasm that the future of
the Muslim Umma lay.
Each of the seven sections in this book represents one Nasiha or Advice. Each Nasiha was delivered in a presentation
of approximately 45 minutes. This time allotment was not, of course, sufficient for Ustadh Khurram to discuss the
subjects in detail. I have therefore drawn material from several of his other speeches and works for `thoroughness',
coherence and to provide clarity on the topics discussed. I have also added Quran and hadith references wherever I
felt they were relevant and added to the richness of the text. Only Allah knows how close I have come to making
clear the Message of the Quran and the Sunna as expressed by Ustadh Khurram.
Let me emphasise that this book merely represents an introduction to spiritual and self development. I hope that
each of the topics exposed here will lead you to further study so that you can continue to grow and progress along
the path of attaining closeness to Allah, our Lord and Master. A selection of suggested readings is given at the end of
this text to assist in further study.
The task of preparing this text has certainly been a challenge for me, but one, which I have enjoyed and benefited
from immensely. I am grateful to Muhammad Abdul Aziz, Alyasa Abdullah, Asim Abdullah, Sharifa Abdullah, Fazeela
Mollick, Wajid Mollick, Hashim Mohammed and Lucy Bushill-Matthews who all read the manuscript and offered
valuable comments and advice during the initial phase of this text's preparation. My deepest appreciation, however,
goes to Abdul Wahid Hamid, whose literary skills, advice and motivation were instrumental in finalising this work
Ultimately, though, any mistakes this book contains are my own - may Allah forgive me and have mercy on me.
Whatever good is derived from it, all praise is due to Him, for without His help and guidance, nothing is possible.
I would like to end with a dua or supplication of the Prophet which epitomises the sole objective of this work and our
goal in life:
O Allah, You change hearts, so change our hearts to be obedient to You. (Muslim.)
Riza Mohammed

History stands as the most effective and valuable source of putting nation on the course of progress and prosperity and saving them from the path of disgrace and degradation.

At a time, when there is tough competition among the nations of the world to excel one another, the Muslim, despite having the most glorious history, appear to be detached and careless as regards their history.

This book presents the true Islamic events and their actual causes before the English readers because the other books in the English language found on the Islamic history have been written by such authors and compilers who did no justice in presenting the true picture of Islamic Era but their prejudice prevented them from doing so.

Publishers Note
We are presenting before you the third volume of the book History of Islam. This book was originally written in the Urdu language in 1922 (1343 AH) by Akbar Shah Khan Najeebabadi. This was the time about 25 years before the partition of Indian Subcontinent into Pakistan and India. For the purpose of brevity, the compiler has presented the authentic events in concise form from the famous histories of Islam written in the Arabic and Persian languages by the great Muslim historians like Tabari, Ibn Athir, Mas'udi, Abul-Fida', Ibn Khaldun and Suyuti, apart from getting benefited from the authentic books of Ahadith for the compilation of the part about the biography of the Prophet Muhammad. So, this compilation is actually the extract of the works of the famous Muslim historians.

In the first volume, starting with the introduction of the history as a subject, the country, people and conditions of Arabia prior to the advent of Islam were discussed, and an account of the life of Prophet Muhammad was presented including the hardships and opposition he faced while propagating the message of Islam, and the details of migration and the period after it until his death. After that the description of Rightly Guided Caliphate was also discussed in its full perspective.

In this second volume, starting with the Caliphate of Banu Umayyah, the martyrdom of Imam Husain (R) and the Caliphate of the Abbasids, all areas have been covered as far as the expansion of Islam was.

This third volume begins with the description of the conditions of Spain before and after the rule of Muslims and the role played by Umayyad, Abbasid, Almoravid and Almohad Caliphs there and their encounters with the Christian Armies. Then some mention of the conquest of Morocco and North Africa has been given along with the details of Idrisia and Aghlabs rule there. After that detailed accounts of Ganghisid Mongols, Turks and Tartar Mangols have been produced. After that Islamic history of Persia is described giving the accounts of Saffariah, Samanid, Delmid, Gharnavid, Seljuk, Ghourid and Muluk Dynasties with the periods of Khwarizm Shah, Atabeks and Sistan Kings rule there. Then the Islamic history of Egypt and Syria is covered describing the Ubaidullah, Ayyubid and Mamluk Dynasties, and the rule of Atabek and Abbasid Caliphs. In the end, something about the Ottoman Dynasty and its Empire is discussed including the description of the conquest of Constantinople.

We hope that the readers will find this volume also of great help in the study of Islamic history. The famous scholar Safi-ur-Rahman Mubarakpuri has revised the Urdu edition before its translation to check the authenticity aspect.

The translation was done by the Translation Department of Darussalam, and every care has been taken to reproduce the events and the names of the persons and places as accurately as possible. We thank all the persons who have cooperated with us to complete this task and produce it before you into a presentable form. May Allah accept our humble efforts in this regard and send His peace and blessings on our Prophet Muhammad, his Companions and his followers.-Amin!

Correcting people’s mistakes is essential if teaching people is the aim, and this volume describes with clear examples from the Sunnah the various methods of the Prophet for teaching people and correcting their mistakes. This book is indispensable for everyone concerned with education in general and Islamic knowledge in particular.

There are many teaching methods with different means and aids. Correcting mistakes is one that educationalists call the ‘remedial method’. Correcting people’s mistakes is essential if teaching people is the aim. Correcting mistakes is a divine method the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) practiced, as some verses of the Qur’an were revealed to correct certain mistakes made by his eminent Companions. The Prophet (peace be upon him) was divinely guided in correcting people’s mistakes, so his methods are the best of all. Following the example of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is therefore the best approach if one is really keen to teach Islamic knowledge and any of the other branches of knowledge. Shaykh Muhammad Sâlih al-Munajjid describes with clear examples from the Sunnah the various methods of the Prophet for teaching people and correcting their mistakes. This book is indispensable for everyone concerned with education in general and Islamic knowledge in particular. It is an excellent reference in educational methodology.

Shaikhul-Islam Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab | Salafi Publications

Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah (died 752H) stated: The two feet of a person who stands before Allah on the Day of Resurrection will not move until he is asked regarding two matters: ‘What was it that you worshipped?  And what was your response to the Messengers?’  The answer to the first question is by actualisation of the words, none has the right to be worshipped except Allah‘ with knowledge, affirmation and action.  The answer to the second question is by actualisation of the words, ‘Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah‘ with knowledge, affirmation, submission and obedience.”  From these words it becomes clear the tremendous importance of the treatise before us whose subject matter is: is to single out Allah alone in His Lordship and worship, and the tremendous importance and station of the Messenger Muhammad (May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and that his is the example to be followed.  The great scholar, Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhab (died 1206H) compiled this treatise in a manner that is easy to understand and memorise, each point being coupled with a proof.

In this book, the author has widely described the main principle of Taqleed. He says that Allah and Prophet Mohammed (SAW) have not ordered us to follow any opinions and interpretations. So there's a possibility of being correct or incorrect in the opinions, because there are many issues on which the Imams had different views and they explain them according to their own reasons and speculations, but the real and true Islam is based on the book (Quran) and Prophet's Sunnah. Allah says: "But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith until they make you judge in all disputed matters between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decision, and accept them with full submission." And prophet said: "I leave you with two things as long as you hold them tightly, you never go astray: they are the book of Allah and my Sunnah." In this sense the author has described the difference between different Madhahib (madhabs/mazhabs), and their views and urged to follow only the Quran and Sunnah. Click Here to View Sample Pages

The first question usually posed to a newly-converted Muslim is: "why?" This book has been written by a revert-to-Islam to answer this question. Her distinctive story details her journey towards Islam along with what she found in her new religion and what she left behind.

The first question usually posed to a new Muslim convert — especially a woman — is: Why? Why would you leave the religion of your family to embrace Islam? I Became a Muslim was written to answer this question. Beginning with her early childhood memories in England, Aysha Parry, explains how she became confused and then disillusioned by her Christian religion. After travelling around the world in a spiritual quest, during which she discovered different cultures and witnessed unusual religious practices, the powerful ‘call to prayer’ captured her heart, inviting her to embrace Islam. Her final and brave decision was to put Allah, love and family at the heart of her new religious lifestyle in the place she now calls home: Egypt. Her distinctive story explains exactly what she found in Islam and what she left behind. The candid discussions of the challenges she faced before and after Islam may occasionally include statements that are not entirely in accordance with Islamic creed, but they reflect her unique experiences and ongoing process of learning. I Became a Muslim will inspire those who are considering converting to Islam as well as those who simply want to better understand this religion.

In 'A Guide to Male-Female Interaction in Islam', Dr. Hatem Al-Haj tackles some of the most often asked questions about free mixing between men and women in Islam, including: are Muslim men allowed to interact with female students, and vice versa, in a virtual classroom? Can a Muslim woman pursue a professional career that necessitates her interaction with men? Is it appropriate for a woman to serve her husband’s guests? Do mixed wedding ceremonies comply with the Sharia? Read this bilingual book to find the answers and more!

Interaction between unrelated members of the opposite sex is inevitable at times. Yet, questions about whether or not it is permissible, and if so, to what extent, need to be asked. Are Muslim men allowed to interact with female students in a virtual classroom, and vice versa? Can Muslim women pursue a professional career which necessitates their interaction with men? Is it appropriate for a woman to serve her husband’s guests? Do segregated wedding ceremonies comply with the Sharia? At times like these, one searches for a text that addresses these contemporary issues, based on the Qur’an and the Sunnah. Dr. Hatem al-Haj has taken a broad view of the subject, keeping in mind the opinions of both categories of scholars: the ones who have taken a stricter stance and the ones who are more flexible in their interpretation. This is a comprehensive and well-researched work, filled with practical advice, from which students and professionals, both male and female will benefit immensely.

Explained by Shaikh Ubaid Ibn Abdillah Al-Jabiri | Salafi Publications

Before you is explanation of a statement of the noble Prophet Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in which the Prophet mentions some mighty principles of the Islamic religion. The hadeeth (prophetic statement) begins with a sermon that caused the Companions of the Prophet to weep and their hearts to tremble. They thought that Allah’s Messenger was about to leave them, so they sought his advice and counsel. He informed them that he has left them upon clear proof, that is so apparent that it’s night is like it’s day! That no one strays from this clarity except that he will be destroyed!

The Messenger of Allah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, further explains that over time differing and controversy will occur between the Muslims. He mentions to them the cure to this differing and separation, that is: Stick to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs after me.  He continued:  Hold on to that with your molar teeth. The Messenger, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, warned the Muslims from innovating in matters of worship in this hadeeth: Be warned of the newly invented matters for verily every newly invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is misguidance, and to obey the Muslims rulers:I advise you with the fear of Allah and to hear and obey (your leaders) even if an Abyssinian slave were to rule over you. The hadeeth is beautifully explained by the Scholar and former teacher at the Islamic University of Madinah Shaikh Ubayd Al-Jaabiree and it has been compiled and presented to you in this book.”

Uttering the Muslim's testimony of faith; the first pillar of Islam; 'La ilaha illa-Allah' (There is none worthy of worship except Allah); is very easy on the tongue; but many of us do not understand the depth of its meaning or the implications associated with uttering it. Or if we do; many of us fail to implement it in totality. In reality; there is no true worship without knowledge of the meaning of 'La ilaha illa-Allah;' and implementing it. 'Knowledge is the foundation! Knowledge precedes all statements and actions. Knowledge is the basis [of everything].' This highly significant book; authored by the great scholar; Shaykh Mu?ammad ibn ?Abd al-Wahhab is explained by Shaykh Mu?ammad Aman al-Jami. The explainer lists the seven essential components of La Ilaha IllAllah and meticulously clarifies each one; giving the reader an in-depth understanding of this monumental utterance

Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali | Dar-us-Sunnah Publishing

Possessing scholarly knowledge of Islam brings you closer to your Lord �ê’_The Most Exalted. �ê’_He is the Possessor of all knowledge and out of His Mercy, has granted some knowledge to His creation so that they can learn about Him and love Him and worship Him alone. �ê’_Such sacred knowledge provides a direct route to whomever toils for it, to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessing be upon him); and what an excellent inheritance it is. no honour could be greater and sublime than taking from the fountains of Prophets and Messengers.

Abu Darda’ (Allah be pleased with him) said, “Indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessing be upon him) say: ‘Whoever treads a path in search of knowledge, then Allah makes easy a path for him towards Paradise. The angels lower their wings approvingly for the seeker of knowledge. Indeed everything in the Heavens and on Earth seeks forgiveness for the scholar, even the fish in the sea. The virtue of the scholar over the worshipper is like the full moon over all the other planets. The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets. The Prophets do not leave gold or silver to be inherited, rather they leave knowledge, so whoever takes from that has taken an abundant share.”

In this eighth instalment of the Ibn Rajab series, the illustrious Imam, may Allah have mercy upon him, penned a truly inspiring work highlighting the merits of knowledge, its types and the role it plays in transforming an individual. Indeed the cure for ignorance is to embark on a noble journey in search of knowledge, with its path leading to Paradise. This gripping classical masterpiece will remain a referral guide for everyone intent on joining the ranks of the elite of the Muslim Ummah.

Each word is written in Arabic with its transliteration followed by short concise meaning and finally by a description of how, where & when it is used. It also includes references to where it may be found.
Since the majority of the followers of Islam are not native speakers of Arabic, and many of them may not have the chance to learn it properly, translation has been resorted to, however incomplete it may be. But even good translators always find it difficult to translate the special terms from Arabic.
A cursory look at the translation of various Islamic works would reveal the discrepancies between the Arabic text and its translation, on one hand, and the different renderings of the same Arabic terms by different translators or even by the same translator at different times.
