New release: FULFILMENT: A Hundred Pathways to a Meaningful Life Inspired by the Quran
by Ammar Awais
ISBN 9789672795377, Softcover, 5” x 7.5”, 134 pages
RM25.00
This book is a motivational guide on shaping one’s life according to the Qur’an. It is intended to help readers attain greater fulfilment—a concept that combines feelings of contentment, happiness, and purpose. While we often relentlessly pursue happiness in life, it tends to be evasive. Hence, it makes sense to strive for something more profound than happiness—fulfilment.
This book presents a hundred pathways for finding greater meaning in life through acts such as spreading goodness, expressing gratitude, striving for self-improvement, and learning to rely upon Allah. These pathways, concisely stated and categorized into sections, have been derived from some of the most inspiring verses of the Quran. Drawing on themes such as deeds, relationships, values, and worship, the book motivates the readers to form a deeper connection with the Creator and change their lives for the better.

Purification (tahārah) is a cornerstone of Islāmic practice and a fundamental aspect of a Muslim’s daily life, serving as a prerequisite for many acts of worship, such as prayer (salāh). The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him, underscored the significance of tahārah in numerous ahādīth. This translation of Kitāb ut-Tahārah from Jāmi‘ ut-Tirmidhī presents the Prophet’s teachings on various aspects of purification, including ablution (wudū’), bathing (ghusl), and the removal of impurities. The ahādīth are presented in their original Arabic along with translations in English, accompanied by concise explanations based on standard commentaries on the Jāmi‘ ut-Tirmidhī and other hadīth collections.
This book aims to serve as a valuable resource for those seeking to deepen their understanding of tahārah. By exploring Islām’s emphasis on purification, readers will be inspired to adopt a more mindful and intentional approach to their spiritual practice. It guides Muslims to integrate the Prophet’s teachings into their daily lives, fostering both spiritual and physical cleanliness. Whether you are a scholar, a student of Islāmic studies, or someone curious about the teachings of Islām, this collection will enrich your understanding and inspire a journey towards a purer, more virtuous life.

Newly reprinted: ISLAM AND THE PROBLEM OF ISRAEL
By Ismail Raji al-Faruqi
ISBN 9789839541342, Paperback, 130 pages
RM29.00
The problem of Israel confronting the Muslim world today has neither precedent nor parallel in Islamic history. The Muslim world has tended to regard it as another instance of modern colonialism, or at best, a repetition of the Crusades. The author shows how Israel is neither one of these; but that it is both and more. The book goes into the nature of Zionism, its history, what has kept it alive, Islam’s verdict concerning Israel today, the question on whether a secular Palestinian state is an answer to the problem of Israel, and many other topics about this great problem.

The task of rooting out evil is a spiritual function which is to be undertaken by religion. Of late, it has been relegated into the background and replaced with the idol of secularism. In this book, written as far back as 1952, the writer seeks to lift the veils that have been allowed to rest on the Qur’an, and to let it speak for itself unhindered by its medieval associations.

While new developments in education theory are continually being introduced, we should recognize that we already have an incredibly successful template for lasting educational impact—the legacy of three Abrahamic prophets: Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon them (pbut) and the religious texts associated with them. These inspired educators sought to uplift their people’s minds and moral qualities through numerous educational methods that remain beneficial today.

The teachings of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are simple at their core, yet profound in their effect. Given that they were not limited to theoretical thoughts and convictions but included the applied aspect of altering actions and behaviors, the prophetic teachings focused on the practical aspect of edification. As a result, their teachings have served as beacons of light guiding people for thousands of years.

“Written in an engagingly readable style the monograph shares the rich life stories of a number of historically significant Muslims in London in a captivating narrative. What is distinctive about it is that moving away from orthodox narratives, it exposes a differently contoured landscape, drawing attention to the significance of the many networks and connections that Muslims themselves established on British soil, delivering portraits of the many rich encounters and exchanges between Muslims and other Britons in the UK and the contributions made by them. Time and again, we see their actions directly subverting widespread contemporary assumptions and images of Muslims’ passivity and inferiority. Given the debates and controversies surrounding Islam and Muslims globally, but more particularly in the West, this work will undoubtedly be of great interest and relevance not only to scholars and students but also to socially, culturally, and politically aware lay audiences.” –Professor Humayun Ansari OBE, Emeritus Professor of the History of Islam and Cultural Diversity, History Department, Royal Holloway, University of London.

In the words of Washington Irving, the whole history of ‘Umar shows him to have been a man of great powers of mind, inflexible integrity and rigid justice. He was more than anyone else, the founder of Islamic empire; confirming and carrying out the inspirations of the Prophet; aiding Abu Bakr with his counsels during his brief Caliphate; and establishing wise regulations of the law throughout the rapidly extending bounds of the Muslim conquests. In the simplicity of his habits, his contempt for all pomp and luxury, he emulated the example of the Prophet and Abu Bakr.
The Book: Publication of the original Urdu work, Al-Farooq, in 1898, took the Muslim world by storm as it was considered as a great literary event and it ran into several editions in a very short time. Soon its translations appeared in Turkish and Persian. No less warmer an appreciation was accorded to this English translation by Maulana Zafar Ali Khan when it was first published in 939 and so unceasing was the demand for it until today.

New release: The Attributes of Divine Perfection
by Al-Ghazali
ISBN 9789672795315, Full colour, hardcover, 120 pages
RM89.00

The subject matter of this book is derived from The Most Sublime Purpose in Explaining the Attributes of Divine Perfection, the treatise by Abu Hamid al-Ghazzali (450-505 AH /1058-1111 AD). The text, reproduced in Arabic and English translation1, is accompanied by the artwork of the prominent Arab artist and scholar Dr Ahmed Moustafa. These compositions elevate contemporary Arab and Islamic art to a level of worldwide prominence and demonstrate that the script, far from being merely the means of writing, constitutes the primary art. For the purpose of this book Dr Moustafa also designed a new Arabic typeface, Safeer, which represents a remarkable development in the field of Arabic typography. Its clarity and elegance are derived form a homogeneous system which allows for a greater scope of typographic choice and enables the page layout to follow both artistic and scientific principles. We would like to express our gratitude to all those who have helped to make this publication possible, in particular the computer department of Dar al-Fikr schools in Jeddah, Mr Mario Corvetto for his Italian translation from English, Dr Stefan Sperl, Mr Mario Lagana, Mr Bruce Nivison, Mr Hasan abdu’l-Hakim (G*i Eaton). The translation of Dr Robert Stade (The Ninety-Nine Names of God, Lagos, 1970) has provided the basis for the English version. God is our only Protector and in Him our trust abides. We pray that this work may be pleasing in His sight.

Although widely known as a proponent of conservative Islam, his translation departs from the traditional exegetic approaches and reflects his deep knowledge of Jewish and Christian scriptures. This edition boasts of a comperehensive index and uses the standard Uthmani Qur’anic script.
