Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people are more important when establishing the caliphate and the Arab-Muslim Empire in the early phases of its existence. One of them is Mu' awiya ibn Abi Sufyan. There are a lot of controversies in Islam about this great man. But this is separate from the extraordinary achievements he made in his lifetime. Mu'awiya is a powerful figure in the history of Islam. Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan is undoubtedly the most elusive and ambiguous of the early caliphs. Furthermore, he was a political genius at a time when nothing else could have saved the Islamic Empire from dissolution, regardless of what we think of him as a ruler and a man (a matter on which opinions disagree sharply, to put it gently). He goes through numerous stages in his life and work. There is a wealth of information on Mu' awiya ibn Abi Sufyan in this book, from his life and times in the Islamic Empire through his character, controversies, and reign.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this accessible study, Stephen Humphreys introduces the most elusive of the early caliphs, Mu'awiya ibn abi Sufyan (602-680). Notoriously guarded about his thoughts, motives and emotions, Mu’awiya was universally known as a figure of immense political acumen. Beyond this, opinions are deeply divided. Throughout history, some have accused him of being the first caliph to diverge from Muhammed’s model of ideal Muslim leadership whilst others credit him with uniting an empire in disarray and transforming the Caliphate into a practicable form of government. In light of this, Humphreys critically analyses his sources, and seeks to get as close as possible to a historical account of the great man.

Book excerpt: Hazrat Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq (R.A) became the first caliph of the Muslims after the death of the Prophet (S.A.S). He was a close Companion of the Prophet (S.A.S); therefore, he became the first adult Muslim to believe in the revelation. As a wealthy trader, he supported the Prophet’s (S.A.S) mission in the early years by freeing slaves their masters mistreated for accepting Islam. The Prophet (S.A.S) gave him the title Al-Siddiq for his truthfulness and love for Allah and His Messenger. This book discusses Abu Bakr’s (R.A.) life and kingdom. This book is divided into three parts. The first part confers his life in Mecca. It details his early life, his relationship with the Messenger of Allah, his conversion to Islam, and his persecution after his conversion. The second part of looks at his life in Medina after migration. It sheds light upon his contribution to Medina. He played an active role in the military expedition with the Prophet (S.A.S). The third and final part is about the Caliphate, which lasted two years. Within a short span of two years, he unified the Muslims and expanded Islam to the furthest lands.

Book excerpt: A book of this kind has never been written before. It took courage to write this book and it will take courage to read it. One of our most popular books, THE CRIMINALS OF ISLAM unveils the true faces of the revered stalwarts " of Islam who emerged over the last 1400 years. So-called Imams ", Historians ", Ulema ", Sheikhs ", Sufis " and Maulanas " - all have made a mockery of Islam. They have converted the beautiful Message revealed to the exalted Prophet into the counterfeit, alien and deplorable manmade religion that we see today. It is a far cry from Ad-Deen, Islam, The Benevolent Social System of Life presented in the Qur'an. Shabbir Ahmed quotes extensively from the Ahadith literature, and enlightens the reader on how and why the once thriving Muslim world has deteriorated into its present state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kingdom of Hazrat Umar (RA) The life of Al-Farooq Umar ibn al-Khattab is a shining page of Islamic history, which outshines and supersedes all other histories. To the best of his ability, the author has striven to study the personality and era of Ameer al-Mumineen Umar, the second caliph, without claiming to be infallible or free from errors. He studied the life of Umar from his birth until his martyrdom. This book proves the greatness of Umar and confirms to the reader that his knowledge, faith, intellect, attitude, eloquence, and influence were all great. His greatness was based on his understanding and application of Islam, his strong relationship with Allah, and his following the last Prophet of Allah (PBUH). He represented greatness in all its aspects. May Allah make this book beneficial to all who read it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines how religious authority was distributed in early Islam. It argues the case that, as in Shi'ism, it was concentrated in the head of state, rather than dispersed among learned laymen as in Sunnism. Originally the caliph was both head of state and ultimate source of religious law; the Sunni pattern represents the outcome of a conflict between the caliph and early scholars who, as spokesmen of the community, assumed religious leadership for themselves. Many Islamicists have assumed the Shi'ite concept of the imamate to be a deviant development. In contrast, this book argues that it is an archaism preserving the concept of religious authority with which all Muslims began.
