Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The Festival of Sacrifice (Eid al-Adha) is one of the two most important celebrations in the Islamic tradition. About two months following the end of Ramadan fasting and festivity (Eid al-Fitr), Muslims around the world join in prayer and feasting again for Eid al-Adha. Those who can afford distribute meat of sacrificial animals to the poor and neighbors during this eid which also marks one of the biggest annual assemblies of the world: the Hajj - the pilgrimage. Millions of Muslims flock in Mecca to observe the rites of the Hajj, pray at the holiest sanctuary of Islam, the Ka'ba, and honor Prophet Abraham, who, Muslims believe, built it. They remember Hagar and Ishmael as they walk about and drink from the well. As featured in this work, Prophet Abraham's story is almost identical in many ways in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and full of lessons for the faithful across traditions. Abraham symbolizes matchless submission and trust in God, spirit of sacrifice, and generous hospitality. His is the path to get closer to the Truth; this is what Abrahamic sacrifice (qurban) stands for. This work features authors from the Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions who share their perspectives on Abraham's life and mission.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. "Call to good and prevent wrong"-- amr bil ma'ruf wa nahy an al munkar. Depending on the translations within the Qur'anic contexts, "calling to good" may be rendered as promoting the right, just, honorable, righteous behavior, and virtue; whereas "preventing wrong" is forbidding what is evil, dishonorable, and vice. The Qur'an urges believers to embrace this duty individually and collectively and praises them when they practice this obligation (Al 'Imran 3:104, 110).This duty is meant to encourage righteous behavior and discourage immorality and aims to remove oppression from society and instead establish justice. It should, ideally, be the distinguishing trait of a Muslim community as it applies to the moral, social, political, and economic facets of life."Calling to good and preventing wrong" can be classified as a duty in the framework of teaching others about faith (tabligh). Literally meaning "to reach out" or "to convey," tabligh is directed to raise the consciousness among people about their responsibility towards religion. It disseminates knowledge about living one's faith in a principled way. Therefore, any discourse, or any act, that conveys, communicates, reminds, promotes, or publishes the teachings and commands of God to the unknowing--or to the less informed--or any discourse or act, that discourages or prevents people from being wrong, unjust, or evil, comes under the meaning of this word, tabligh.Rooted deeply in the Qur'an, hadith, and commentaries of notable scholars, the book in your hands is a precious resource to comprehend the context and dynamics that make spiritual mentoring and guidance an important part of a faithful life. The content of the book consists of transcripts of a series of sermons M. Fethullah Guelen delivered early in his career as a preacher. While presenting extensive commentary based on examples from the time of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, and Rightly Guided Caliphs, Guelen does so with awareness of the realities of the modern era, especially with regards to being free from political interests and keeping the scope as wide as possible so to embrace the whole of humanity. The book supports the idea that spiritual mentoring and guidance is an important duty and highlights some principles mentors should take into consideration. While being an essential reference for mentors and counselors in the Muslim community, the book offers many universal principles that all faith communities can benefit from and refer to in their services.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The origin of Sufism -- Self criticism; Reflection; Privacy and seclusion; Heart; Hope or expectation; Asceticism. People follow the Sufi path when they sense that Islam has a deeper dimension.

After this, God draws the novice to Himself. With the help of a spiritual guide, the novice begins the life-long journey back to God. This continual process of spiritual development along a path of the innate human poverty, helplessness, and powerlessness before God is undertaken in the knowledge that everything comes from God.

The most exalted rank of humanity is knowledge of God. The most radiant happiness and sweetest bounty for jinn and humanity is love of God contained within the knowledge of God; the purest joy for the human spirit and the purest delight for the human heart is spiritual ecstasy contained within the love of God.Indeed, all true happiness, pure joy, sweet bounties, and unclouded pleasure are contained within the knowledge and love of God." And Sufism is the school where people can realise the highest aim of creation. People follow the Sufi path when they sense that Islam has a deeper dimension. The resulting self-purification leads to this inner dimension of Islamic rituals, a deeper understanding of the Divine acts, and a greater knowledge and love of Him.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. For decades, Fethullah Guelen spoke on religion together with science, addressed challenging issues on faith, and inspired a generation to promote education and dialogue around the world. Those who listened to him felt empowered by this engaging and learned man of religion. To the ruling establishment of Turkey, his native country, these activities were assumed to be crossing over the line, and they made sure he suffered the consequences, especially throughout the second decade of the twenty-first century. Guelen and the people he inspired were scapegoated for the failures and malfeasance of a corrupt regime which conducted a nationwide crackdown on affiliated schools, foundations, and media organizations, while hundreds of thousands of teachers, doctors, journalists, civil servants, and supporters affiliated with them were purged and incarcerated, especially in the aftermath of the "staged" coup attempt in July 2016. Devoted to the Truth is a series of essays Guelen wrote following this event. What transpires from this collection is a seasoned leader who is going through all the blood, sweat, and tears to keep his ship afloat, the crew and passengers safe and calm. When the world seems to be in darkness, we find Guelen calling out to his community that this "Eclipse" is over, and inspires them how to be "Travelers to the Light." As he leads his followers on this journey, he teaches how they should hold themselves to account by "Facing the Self." While feeling "Pity" for the perpetrators of all the persecution they are going through, Guelen shows the path on to how to "Heal" and take action "So Others May Live."

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. "Searching for God not only offers an inspiring, emotional insight to the author's journey to and through Islam, it beautifully maps out Islamic principles in an understandable and relatable way. Truly a five-star read!"- Ameena Blake, Muslim scholar, UK "A story of a Christian who always carried Islam - unknowingly - in her heart until she finally discovered it, then artistically crafted her experience with a feather. Rarely does a book touch my heart and inspire me like that."- Fadel SolimanBridges' Translation of the Ten Qira'at of the Noble Quran "One of my earliest memories is of contemplating God. I was a freckle-faced girl of five, sitting quietly in catechism class when the teacher casually said, 'God is bigger than everything.' The words hit me like a blast force. The classroom disappeared, the teacher's voice muted, and I gasped at the revelation. Bigger than the tallest tree in the yard? Bigger than a mountain? Bigger than the world? The enormity of God impressed me, but I couldn't help wondering, 'If He is bigger than anything, where is He?'" In this inspirational memoir, Teresa Lesher shares her search for God. She explores factors that have made her who she is as well as influencers who shape who she aspires to be and who lead her in her quest for the Divine. She dissects basic concepts that have been essential for her understanding of God as well as paradigms that shape her experience of Him. She shares her journey along the Divine Path and closer to Divine Presence through expressions of submission to Him. This quest for God takes her to her innermost self and ends with a discovery of life, an understanding of love, and a commitment to truth.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The idea of evolution is neither similar to the laws of physics, nor does it have the character of being experienced by a person's heart and soul. It is simply the subject matter of belief, attained solely by observing the abundance of creatures in nature and by interpreting some of the changes in living beings. From this point, the "Hypothesis of Evolution" is just like a matter of belief-and yet, it is also a kind of creed. Religion is the main source for the values which shape a person's life. So, too, belief in Evolution influences the lives of those who adhere to it, and it is a main cause, just like a religion, in shaping their lives. And certainly, those who believe in Evolution should have the freedom to "practice" and teach their beliefs. But it cannot be acceptable for them to attack those who believe in divine religions and do not think in the same way they do, or for them to consider their opponents to be enemies of science. The agreement between religion and science was broken by the idea of evolution's assignment of perfect structures and mechanisms that operate in the universe to mindless and unconscious random operations of natural laws, instead of assigning the creation of them to the Creator. Scientific thought became detached from religious sanctity, simultaneously, science became a taboo which could not be challenged. Evolution: Science or Ideology? aims to show how the theory of evolution has been abused to deny religious thought, and that the scientific evidence set forth to prove it actually serves the opposite. Examining the evolution debate from different aspects, this study points out the divergent uses of evolution and it posits a scientific argument against the theory of evolution, and includes rational explanations derived from the Islamic understanding of creation.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This book is about Abu Bakr, the first Caliph to rule the world of Islam after the Prophet had passed away.
