Book excerpt: In "Islam, Spirit, and Form" by Shaykh Osman Nuri Topbas, a profound exploration unfolds, delving into the essence of Islam beyond mere ritualistic practice. In an era where the mechanical repetition of religious customs often overshadows the true spirit of Islam, this book serves as a beacon, aiming to reignite the spiritual radiance inherent in Islamic worship. With a unique blend of historical narratives, tales of prophets and their companions, and the lives of exemplary Sufis, Shaykh Osman Nuri Topbas weaves a tapestry that seeks to illuminate the profound connection between the spiritual essence of Islamic practice and its ritual form. Drawing inspiration from the poetry of Rumi, Yunus Emre, and other Sufi luminaries, the author endeavors to infuse passion into the spiritual journey. The book meticulously dissects the Five Pillars of Islam, offering insights into faith, belief in angels, books of Allah, prophets, the Hereafter, and destiny. The author provides an eloquent exploration of prayer (Salat/Namaz), unraveling its prerequisites, its significance in congregation, and its role as a unique refuge in the journey toward spiritual fulfillment. The chapters on Zakat and Infaq (Poor-Due and Spending for Others) not only elucidate the economic philosophy integral to Islam but also exude a captivating beauty in their exploration of the etiquette of spending and the requirements of Zakat. As the narrative unfolds to the pilgrimage to Mecca and the holy month of Ramadan, Shaykh Osman Nuri Topbas provides rich insights into the construction of the Ka'aba, the significance of the Lesser Pilgrimage (Umrah), and the profound spiritual journey of fasting during Ramadan. "Islam, Spirit, and Form" is not just a book; it is a guide that invites readers to rediscover the profound spiritual dimensions of Islamic practice. Shaykh Osman Nuri Topbas navigates the intersection of faith and ritual, providing a compelling roadmap for those seeking to imbue their religious journey with genuine spiritual essence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the aspirations and concerns of Islamist actors in the aftermath of the Arab Uprisings by looking at two sets of relationships between Turkey's ruling AKP and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and the AKP and Tunisia's Ennahda. It presents a unique analysis of the interplay between the AKP, Ennahda and the Muslim Brotherhood, characterizing the actors, the structure and the main features of the relationship and thereby illuminating a political confluence among these three critical Islamist entities in the aftermath of the Arab Uprisings. Existing scholarship has assumed that this relationship revolves primarily around an ideological Islamist agenda, however, this research demonstrates a more complex and nuanced situation. Ezgi Basaran puts forward that the interplay was not based on an aspiration of building an ideological Islamist bloc in the MENA region, but rather revolved around the concept of political success and had a strong neoliberal ethos. Basaran draws on data collected from over 60 interviews with high-level members of the AKP, Ennahda and Muslim Brotherhood to demonstrate how, in the hope of achieving success and legitimization, Ennahda and the Muslim Brotherhood have relied on the managerial prescriptions provided by the AKP. The contents of this success formula were derived from the AKP's experience as an Islamist party in power since 2002 and includes tactics on crisis evasion, legitimization, winning elections and maintaining power.

Book excerpt: The Spirit of Islam is considered one of the best and most well-written sources of information on the life of Mohammed the prophet and the history of Islam. Consisting of two parts, "The Life and Ministry of the Prophet" and "The Spirit of Islam," the book contains the literary, cultural, social, political, and philosophical history of Islam. Originally, the book was a short work entitled "A Critical Examination of the Life and Teachings of Mohammad," but the author later revised the work into what it is today. SYED AMEER ALI (1849-1928) was an Indian Muslim who wrote several books about Islamic history and practice, as well as Islamic law. A respected jurist himself, and a descendant of Mohammad, Ali's words were extremely influential. He achieved honors in school, began a legal practice in Calcutta, and was one of the most accomplished Muslims of his time before he moved to London at age 20. When he returned to Calcutta in 1873, he continued his law practice, became a law professor at Calcutta University, and founded the Central National Mohammedan Association in 1877, a political organization central to promoting modern Muslim thought. Ali moved back to London in 1904, establishing the London Muslim League in 1908 and the first London mosque in 1910. Ali continued to write and make breakthroughs for Muslims until his death in 1928.

Book excerpt: In "Islam Unveiled," Robert Spencer dares to face the hard questions about what the Islamic religion actually teaches--and the potentially ominous implications of those teachings for the future of both the Muslim world and the West. Going beyond the shallow distinction between a "true" peaceful Islam and the "hijacked" Islam of terrorist groups, Spencer probes the Koran and Islamic traditions (as well as the history and present-day situation of the Muslim world) as part of his inquiry into why the world's fastest growing faith tends to arouse fanaticism. "Islam Unveiled" evaluates the relationship between Islamic fundamentalism and "mainstream" Islam; the fixation with violence and jihad; the reasons for Muslims' disturbing treatment of women; and devastating effects of Muslim polygamy and Islamic divorce laws. Spencer explores other daunting questions--why the human rights record of Islamic countries is so unrelievedly grim and how the root causes of this record exist in basic Muslim beliefs; why science and high culture died out in the Muslim world--and why this is a root cause of modern Muslim resentment. He evaluates what Muslims learn from the life of Muhammad, the man that Islam hails as the supreme model of human behavior. Above all, this provocative work grapples with the question that most preoccupies us today: can Islam create successful secularized societies that will coexist peacefully with the West's multicultural mosaic?
