Within a generation of the prophet Muhammad's death, his followers-as vivid a cast of heroic individuals as history has ever known-had exploded out of Arabia to confront the two great superpowers of the seventh century and establish Islam and with it a new civilization. The Heirs of Muhammad is a swaggering saga of ambition, achievement, self-sacrificing nobility, and blood rivalry. Acclaimed historian Barnaby Rogerson recounts the lives of the handful of individuals who led and influenced Islam after the death of Muhammad. The Heirs of Muhammad is the best kind of history-the kind that brings a forgotten era back to life while simultaneously illuminating a neglected history that is vital to an enlightened understanding of our present world.

Brief Summary The book is originally in Turkish. And derived from the preaches of Gulen in the Turkish mosques. It must be read by keeping in mind that. Gulen had some series about life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuH) and that book comes from them. It's unique at this side, the book does not try to be "what happened, what happened, what happened bla bla" book, it focuses the life of Prophet (pbuH) from different sides, getting us daily life of Prophet, His approach in real life as a servant of Allah, as a commander, as a leader of a nation, as a friend, as a husband, as a father and so on. A very good and unique book indeed. ISBN:9781932099836 Author:Fethullah Gülen

How many times have we felt that our Imaan is taking a dip? How many times it has happened that we felt disconnected with Allah? How many times have we found our hearts away from the remembrance of Allah? This book is another masterpiece from the renowned Harun Yahya and a reminder and a naseeha for all those who feel detached from Allah. In his eloquent and cogent writing style, the author has dealt with this serious issue of low Imaan and exhorted the reader towards acquiring the attributes of the true believer. The book invites the reader to question himself as to whether he/she is sincerely devoted to Allah or not and then tacitly encourage the reader to work towards the cure.

In the wake of 9-11, the activities of Osama Bin Laden and Hamas, and the recent Gulf War, the Western press have been filled with information and mis-information about the true nature of Islam. Is it a feudal misogynist belief system that is a threat to Western values? Is it an ideology of oppression? Or, is it a faith tradition that is as varied as Christianity, a "big tent" that includes not only the extremists that we read about in the daily press, but also a majority of followers who are committed to an authentic spirituality that embraces many of the values shared by the mainstream in Europe and America? Why I Am a Muslim is a gentle analysis of those issues. Part memoir and part guide, it represents the side of Islam that is left out of the daily newspapers. For Asma Hasan, being a Muslim is not merely a matter of birth, but a matter of choice. In seven chapters, she presents seven reasons why she is committed to Islam and why it is a viable spiritual option for anyone. Based on her understanding of the Qur'an and her upbringing as a Muslim, she articulates a vision of Islam that is ethnically diverse, tolerant of others, and supportive of the rights of women. She presents a spiritual tradition that contains a rich mystical tradition and that allows individuals to have a direct relationship with God. Why I Am a Muslim is an important book that will provide readers everywhere with an understanding and appreciation of a frequently misunderstood religious tradition. Hasan successfully articulates a vision of one of the world's great religions that readers within and without Islam will find engaging and challenging. ISBN:2147483647 Author:Asma Gull Hasan
