What Does it mean to be a Muslim by F...
Brief Summary
What does it mean to be a Muslim? With a Selection of Authentic Qudsi Sacred Hadiths with a Nawawi's Forth Hadiths.
This book consists of two parts: the first part presents the characteristics that every Muslim should have and the duties he should fulfill in order to be a real Muslim who truly belongs to the religion of Islam. Many people are nowadays Muslims merely because this is simply what is written on their identity cards, or because they were born of Muslim parents. In fact, such people do not realize what their belonging to Islam means, or what the requirements of such belonging are. Thus, they may be separate from what Islam really means.
This first part of the book provides answers for all such questions, showing how the Muslim can belong to this religion truly and effectively.
The second part of the book demonstrates the obligation of working for Islam and the requirement of belonging to the Islamic movement. It also depicts the features of the Islamic movement as well as its objectives, means, philosophy, methodology, and the features that should be present in its followers.

The Future of God by Deepak Chopra
Brief Summary
The Future of God: A Practical Approach to Spirituality for Our Times.
The leading adviser on spirituality in America divulges the faulty reasoning, bogus science, and general bad faith prevalent among militant atheists like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris, then offers new and provocative ways to understand God and the nature of belief in the 21st century.
For many, the rise in the new atheistic beliefs of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are a sign that God and faith are no longer needed in the modern world. Deepak Chopra disagrees and sees the rise in materialistic thinking as a grand opportunity for people of faith to reevaluate what they believe and why.
In The Future of God, Chopra not only dispels the faulty arguments of a new breed of militant atheists but also shows us an inspiring and invigorating path to understanding God and our own place in the universe. "If faith can be saved, the result will be an increase in hope," Chopra writes. "By itself, faith can't deliver God, but it does something more timely. Faith makes God possible."

Wholeness Winning in Life from the In...
Brief Summary
Wholeness, the sophomore book from international thought leader and pastor Touré Roberts is about removing invisible boundaries from our lives that keep us from realizing our highest potential. Roberts brilliantly lays forth the truth that in order to live an outer life without limits, we have to uncover and address the inner limitations that hide in our blind spots.
This life-changing book explains that regardless of where you are in life, Wholeness will take you higher. Wholeness will elevate your sense of fulfillment in life, produce healthier, more rewarding relationships, and will position you for optimum success in every endeavor.
Roberts explains we can’t always choose the experiences that keep us from being whole, but we can take control of our lives today and bring healing to any broken area. Key chapters include an in-depth relationship guide titled "Two Halves Don’t Make a Whole.” "The Cracked Mirror” shows how unprocessed experiences can negatively shape our view of self, others, and the world around us. "Ghosts of the Past” gives powerful, practical tools for avoiding the traps of the past and ensuring that we enter into the amazing future that God has planned for us.
Wholeness is filled with wisdom garnered from Touré’s own life—raised by a single mom, narrowly escaping the trappings of inner city life, and finding success in corporate America. His insight is further broadened by his role as founder of one of the most influential churches in the nation, with over fourteen years pastoring thousands of millennials, couples, families, and a diverse group of individuals. Wholeness will take you on a transformational journey that won’t leave you the same. Concluding with a "Wholeness Test", Wholeness will help you track and maintain your progress while walking out your journey to your full potential.

The Reckless Love of God
Brief Summary
The Reckless Love of God: Experiencing the Personal, Passionate Heart of the Gospel
Assurance of God's Personal Love for Us
The startling truth about the love of God has lost its potency. It is not a passionless, theological idea. It is a real love that feels and even suffers. Whether you grew up in a Christian home and have forgotten this essential truth, or you never knew it in the first place, we all need to be reminded--and assured--that God's love is real and personal.
The Reckless Love of God is about pulling readers in close and asking if they have really considered what it means to say, "Jesus loves you."
Nothing changes lives and grows the church faster, more effectively, and more thoroughly than being captivated by this reality. But the love of Jesus is not just a means to another end. Receiving the love of Jesus is the end itself.
Includes end-of-chapter questions for individual or group use.

Beautiful Outlaw
Brief Summary
Beautiful Outlaw: Experiencing the Playful, Disruptive, Extravagant Personality of Jesus
Reading the Gospels without knowing the personality of Jesus is like watching television with the sound turned off. The result is a dry, two dimensional person doing strange, undecipherable things.
In BEAUTIFUL OUTLAW, John Eldredge removes the religious varnish to help readers discover stunning new insights into the humanity of Jesus. He was accused of breaking the law, keeping bad company, heavy drinking. Of being the devil himself. He was so compelling and dangerous they had to kill him. But others loved him passionately. He had a sense of humor. His generosity was scandalous. His anger made enemies tremble. He'd say the most outrageous things. He was definitely not the Jesus of the stained glass.
In the author's winsome, narrative approach, he breaks Jesus out of the typical stereotypes, just as he set masculinity free in his book, Wild at Heart. By uncovering the real Jesus, readers are welcomed into the rich emotional life of Christ. All of the remarkable qualities of Jesus burst like fireworks with color and brilliance because of his humanity.
Eldredge goes on to show readers how they can experience this Jesus in their lives every day. This book will quicken readers' worship, and deepen their intimacy with Jesus.

Golden Stories of Accepted Prayer
Brief Summary
What is an invocation? Or Dua? In a real sense, invocation is a request that originates from the bottom of our heart and goes towards Almighty Allah. The Kind Lord is always willing, ready and happy to listen to us and accept prayers from anyone at any time. Muslims are ordered to turn to Allah in case of any problem, difficulty or trouble. That’s why; Islam has provided us a handsome number of invocations to recite on different occasions.
Though, the best of those narrations are in Arabic, as narrated by the Holy Prophet PBUH; however, you can pray in your mother tongue too. It’s one of the key etiquettes of prayer that when we pray, we should feel assured that Allah will accept our requests. Praying with complete sincerity and devotion increases the chances of its acceptance. There are some time-specific prayers that have greater chances of acceptance.
The book ‘Golden Stories of Accepted Prayers’ contains hundreds of accepted prayers and their suitable timings. It also provides readers with a complete guidance on etiquettes, terms and manners of praying.

Lost Islamic History Reclaiming Musli...
Brief Summary
Islam has been one of the most powerful religious, social and political forces in history. Over the last 1400 years, from origins in Arabia, a succession of Muslim polities and later empires expanded to control territories and peoples that ultimately stretched from southern France to East Africa and South East Asia.
Yet many of the contributions of Muslim thinkers, scientists and theologians, not to mention rulers, statesmen and soldiers, have been occluded. This book rescues from oblivion and neglect some of these personalities and institutions while offering the reader a new narrative of this lost Islamic history.
The Umayyads, Abbasids, and Ottomans feature in the story, as do Muslim Spain, the savannah kingdoms of West Africa and the Mughal Empire, along with the later European colonization of Muslim lands and the development of modern nation-states in the Muslim world.
Throughout, the impact of Islamic belief on scientific advancement, social structures, and cultural development is given due prominence, and the text is complemented by portraits of key personalities, inventions and little known historical nuggets. The history of Islam and of the world's Muslims brings together diverse peoples, geographies and states, all interwoven into one narrative that begins with Muhammad and continues to this day.

This Beloved PBUH Smiling
Brief Summary
The Arabic word "dahika" as attributed to the Prophet (PBUH) constitutes the common denominator of this book. It has been translated with the English infinitive "to smile" and not "to laugh" because the real meaning of dahika "as attributed to the Prophet (PBUH)* can be rendered into English through "to smile" and not "to laugh". In his Fathul-Bari Imam Ibn Hajar has mentioned that one of the qualities of the Prophet (PBUH) is that his dahik (laughing) was the same like tabassum or smiling (of others).
"Your smiling in the face of your
(Muslim) brother is an act of charity " It has also been narrated that Abdullah Ibnul-
Harith Ibn Jaz', may Allah be pleased with him, said, "I have never seen anyone who would smile much more than the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)."
Furthermore, Ibn "Umar, May Allah be pleased with him, was once asked, "Did the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) use to laugh?" He answered, "Yes, but the faith in their hearts was bigger (i.e., superior) than mountains."
