Al-Adab al-Mufrad, an anthology of 1329 hadiths, is a treasured work in Muslim history by one of its most respected scholars, Imam Bukhari. In preparing this selection of hadiths Imam Bukhari aimed to set out a model to follow for successful relations within the Muslim community as well as interaction between Muslims and non-Muslims based on the Prophetic example, and that of Muhammad's closest companions. All of the hadiths are directly related to the standards of manners and morality Islam wants to prevail, and Muslims throughout the world have been guided by it since its preparation over a millennium ago. Famed for the reliability and strength of his work, Imam Bukhari exclusively used hadith that do not go below the grade of "Good", or "Hasan", and since they are focused on manners and moral values, they are upheld by scholars. What distinguishes the present work is that it includes a contemporary commentary, clearly emphasising the relevance of the Prophet's teachings in our modern and complex societies. This pioneering addition marks it out as perhaps the first English work commenting on and explaining a full anthology of hadiths. The translator and author of the commentaries, Adil Salahi, has a long history of research in the Seerah and Hadith, and he wrote extensively on both. This work puts together the best of his writings on the Prophet's teachings in the area of morality and private and social manners.

All proceeds from the sale of this book go towards rebuilding the lives of the civilians in Palestine.

This book tells the fictional story of a quest inspired by Ibn Khaldun’s ideas about people who lived in cities and the bedouins who lived in the deserts and rural areas as nomads. The events in the story have not taken place in reality. Perhaps some of it did happen since Ibn Khaldun did live among the bedouins for a long time, travelled with them, conversed with them in the night, and observed them closely.

The crisis in thought we witness today, in the name of freedom of speech, did not exist half a century ago when Islam and Pakistan were understood as synonymous. In every stage of Pakistan’s liberation movement, the leadership of the Muslim League and the masses, as evidenced by the historic records in the form of archives, speeches, statements, and resolutions, endorsed this reality. Even today, it is an insignificant number of people, but vocal, who question this fact of the matter. Fabricated and fictitious ideas are attributed to the philosopher, sage, and ideologue Allama Iqbal and the great Muhammad Ali Jinnah, as well as about the well-established two-nation theory.

Numerous efforts have taken place to portray the Quaid as a secular leader. In this quagmire, there are a handful of people loyal to Pakistan’s ideology, Islamic vision, and values who genuinely present the views of the Quaid. Dr. Anis is one such person who, in his over fifty years of academic career, has stood for this noble mission. How did the Quaid visualise Pakistan is a question that has been made controversial by a limited number of so-called liberal intellectuals. Dr. Anis in a dispassionate, logical, and evidence-based research, has provided an authentic narrative of the Quaid’s vision of Pakistan, in the Quaid’s own words, in a simple and satisfactory way in order to let the new generations see the truth as it is.

KHURRAM MURAD gives a greatly illuminating and very concise, yet remarkably comprehensive exposition of a burning issue of our times. For, in the wake of the powerful current of Islamic resurgence, the Shari`ah, in the eyes of friend and foe alike, has come to epitomise the goal towards which Muslims are restlessly trying to advance in quest of their destiny. Yet, paradoxically, nothing in Islam seems to arouse greater misgivings and more intense feelings of fear, hostility and ridicule as does the Shari`ah. Hence the need to understand it is no less compelling than the Muslim desire to implement it. 

How can it be viewed as the path that man, in Islam, must walk as he toils and strives for his Creator? What are its sources; its compulsive logic for immutability; its dynamics for coping with changed circumstances; its way of resolving tensions between love and law, inner motivations and outer sanctions, form and spirit; its historical development - these and many other important issues have been dealt with in a style which is both convincing and charming. 

This booklet can be used to great advantage for explaining what is the Shari'ah to Muslims and non-Muslims alike.

Alija Izetbegovic may best be known as the President who single-mindedly struggled for a just end to the conflict which ravaged his country in the 1990s. In the face of the indifference of Europe, which had lapsed on its fifty year old promise of ‘never again’ as concentration camps once more sprang up in the midst, he tirelessly campaigned for justice at home and abroad. To some he is difficult and uncompromising: to others he is a man who sought to live by the highest of principles. As a prisoner of conscience in the 1980s he once wrote, ‘When I lose the reason to live. I shall die.’

This major autobiography is the account of one man and his remarkable life. Born in 1925, he was educated in Sarajevo before qualifying as a Lawyer. He was imprisoned twice by the communist government of Yugoslavia (1946-48 and 1983-88). On the second occasion, as a Muslim intellectual, he served five years of a fourteen year sentence merely for his written word. In 1990, as his political party came to power with the fall of communism, Alija Izetbegovic was elected as President of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He stood by his people throughout the war of aggression against his country in the 1990s, leading his people with nerves of steel, living by his principles both as a European and a Muslim. He signed the Dayton Peace Accord in November 1995 and was re-elected to a three-member collective Presidency in 1996. It was his principles, however, for which he eventually resigned his position in 2000, announcing that the international community was pushing things forward in a manner with which he could not live.

Alija Izetbegovic is one of those rare individuals who have managed to both inspire and lead a whole nation in its pursuit of freedom, winning the admiration of people the world over. His esteemed career as a lawyer, activist, politician, freedom fighter and scholar is detailed in this memoir. His life, spanning two centuries, as a model European Muslim will interest scholars, politicians and the general reader, Muslim and non-Muslim alike.

Islam is now Britain's second largest religion with a significant community presence for nearly fifty years. Yet, British Muslims are often viewed through the prism of the migration process. This book seeks to move beyond these images to address the evolving social realities of British-born Muslims, now the majority. How do they respond to pressures to give up or attenuate their distinctive moral, cultural and religious attitudes and beliefs? How and where do they place themselves in the context of nationality and citizenship as participants in wider society? This book examines the various patterns of Muslim migration and community formation and explores notions of identity, belonging and cultural difference. In addressing the key obstacles and challenges, the authors question conventional definitions of citizenship and frameworks of integration, analysing the legal, social and political factors inhibiting social inclusion, civil engagement and participatory politics among British Muslims. The book helps to break new ground on debates around inclusion and will be of interest to British Muslims and all those who wish to engage with this dynamic, diverse and often misunderstood community.

The Shariah is one of the most misunderstood and maligned Islamic terms in the West. The word conjures up images of uncivilised Muslims whipping criminals, stoning adulterers and confining women within their homes in the minds of many people.

Yet, Shariah literally means a way or a path and, more specifically, the way to a watering place. Far from being a strict penal code it is a humane, compassionate and benevolent system of laws that guides Muslims, based on the Qur'an, the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, and the interpretation of religious scholars.

This book is a simple and concise guide to the Shariah (Islamic law) to explain its meaning, scope and operation in practical life, as well as helping readers understand and appreciate its value and necessity in the believer's life.

This book is an English version of Sayyid Mawdudi’s Urdu Khutubat. Originally delivered to ordinary, almost illiterate, farmers and servicemen, it met the real and great spiritual and cultural needs of Muslims, particularly in Southeast Asia, in the twentieth century.

It includes sections on belief; each Pillar of Islam (faith, prayer, fasting, charity, and pilgrimage); and the meaning of jihad.

Mawlana Sayyid Abdul A’la Mawdudi (1903–1979), one of the chief architects and leaders of the contemporary Islamic resurgence, was an outstanding Islamic thinker and writer of his time.

This book is a collection of eighteen lively, well-loved stories from the life of the Prophet Muhammad. They highlight the main stations of his life—from orphaned child to Prophet of God and beloved leader of all Muslims.

The book includes twenty-three charming illustrations that offer a glimpse of the world in which the stories are set.
