The Ideal Muslim Society~Dr Muhammad Ali Al-Hashimi~About this Book:
In a world plagued with wars, racism, political turmoil, economic downturns and social anguish, many people are looking for an alternative in which justice, freedom, decency and common sense will prevail. Such societies have existed in the past, in the golden eras of Islamic civilisation, and we have the hope that, if Allah wills, such a society may appear again.

Dr Muhammad Ali al-Hashimi gives us a detailed picture of what this society would look like. Drawing on his extensive research of Islamic history and contrasting the ideal with the sorry state of affairs in human societies today, he explores the religious, political, economic, social and other facets of this ideal society, illustrating everything from the responsibilities of those in authority to the interactions between individuals on the humblest levels.

Mankind nowadays is in even greater need of this kind of society, a sincere Muslim society that is free, clean, refined and proactive, governed by justice, love, sincerity, mutual support and selflessness, a society that is free from oppression, hatred, deceit, selfishness and arrogance.

This society is united by one thing, which is the bond of faith which breaks down the barriers of race, nationality, language and colour, and other factors which have no bearing on the essence of man.

Chapters Include:
The Society of Perfect Shari'ah
The Society of True Submission to Allah
The Society of Enjoining Good & Forbidding Evil
The Society of Freedom
The Society of Justice
The Society of Brotherhood
The Society of a Balanced Economy
The Society of Knowledge & Action

The Humility in Prayer~Ibn Rajab Al-Hanbali~About this Book:
The basic meaning of Khushu', is the softness of the hearts, its being gentle, still, submissive, broken, and yearning. When the heart in humble, so too is the hearing, seeing, head, and face; indeed all the limbs and their actions are humbled, even speech. This is why the Prophet (saw) would say in his bowing, "My hearing, sight, bones, and marrow are humbled to You," another narration has, "and whatever my foot carries."

Al-Hasan, may Allah have mercy on him, said, 'When you stand in prayer, stand in due obedience as Allah has ordered you, beware of negligence and looking (here and there), beware that Allah be looking at you while you are looking at something else, asking Allah for Paradise and taking refuge with Him from the Fire, yet your heart is heedless, not knowing what the tongue is saying.

Hudhayfah said, 'The first thing you will lose of your religion will be Khushu' and the last thing you will lose of your religion will be the prayer, and it is well possible that there is no good in a person who prays, and soon will come a time when you shall enter a large Masjid and not see a single person with Khushu'.

The Journey to Allah~Ibn Rajab Al-Hanbali~About this Book:
Bukhari records on the authority of Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (saw) said, 'Your actions alone will not save any of you.' They asked, 'Messenger of Allah, not even you?' He replied, 'Not even me, unless Allah were to envelop me in His Mercy. Be firm, be steadfast and balanced, and journey (to Allah) in the beginning of the day, the end of the day, and a portion of the night. Moderation, moderation! Through this you will attain your goal.'

He also recorded this hadith in another place with the wording, 'This religion is easy, none makes it hard upon himself except that it overwhelms him; therefore be firm, steadfast, and balanced; upon which have glad tidings! Seek help by jouneying (to Allah) at the beginning of the day, at the end of the day, and a portion of the latter part of the night.'

He also recorded on the authority of Aisha that the Prophet (saw) said, 'Be firm, steadfast, and balanced upon which have glad tidings, for indeed actions alone will not cause one to enter Paradise...'

The Key to Paradise~Ibn Rajab Al-Hanbali~About this Book:

It was said to al-Hasan, 'People say that whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped,' shall enter Paradise.' He said, 'Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped save Allah,' and fulfils its obligations and meets its requirements, shall enter Paradise.'

Wahb ibn Munabbih was asked, 'Is not the testification that 'none has the right to be worshipped save Allah' the key to Paradise?' He replied, 'Of course, but every key has its teeth; if you bring a key that has teeth, the door shall open; but if not, it will not.'

The Key to Paradise is the testification of Tawhid. This book highlights the importance of correct belief, a true love for Allah and the state of the heart. Also included is an extremely beneficial appendix - The Types of Hearts by al-Hafiz ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah.

Medical Miracles of the Qur'an~Dr Sharif Kaf Al-Ghazal~About this Book:
A number of scientific truths that we have only been able to uncover with the aid of twentieth century technology, were stated in the Qur'an more than 1400 years ago.

Of course the Qur'an is not a book of science. However, many scientific facts that are expressed in an extremely concise and profound manner in its verses have only been discovered in recent years.

These facts could not have been known at the time of the Qur'an's revelation, and this furnishes still more proof that the Qur'an is the word of God.

Through such medical and scientific references in the Qur'an, the non-Muslim is provided with conclusive evidence of the genuineness of Islam, whilst reinforcing the Muslims' faith by motivating them towards admonition, deliberation and meditation.

Chapters Include:
The Origin of Creation: Clay & Water
Embryology and Human Creation
The Sensation of Pain on the Skin

The Spiritual Cure - Al-Fatihah~at-Tabari, al-Jawzi, al-Qurtubi, al-Qayyim, ibn Kathir and others~About this Book:
Surah al-Fatihah is the greatest chapter of the Qur'an. Its like is not found in the rest of the Qur'an or in the previous scriptures. Some of our predecessors stated that when this chapter was revealed, Shaytaan let out a great cry of lament. It holds a central position in the daily prayer and hence the daily life of a Muslim.

The underlying theme of Al-Fatihah is one of contemplation and serenity, pondering the Names and Attributes of Allah, pondering the creation, and acknowledging that He Alone deserves praise and worship, that He Alone should be asked for help, that He Alone should be feared and hoped in. It calls us to carefully scrutinise our relationship with our Lord.

Owing to the importance of this chapter, numerous classical commentaries of the Qur'an are drawn from, as well as a number of works dealing with Ulum al-Quran were also referred to.
