The Spiritual Cure
The Spiritual Cure, An Explanation To Surah Al Fatihah, A summary of Numerous Classical Commentaries of The Quran The underlying theme of al fatihah is one of contemplation and serenity; pondering the Names and Attributes of Allah, pondering the creation and acknowledging that He alone deserves praise and worship, that He alone should be asked for help, that He alone should be feared and hoped in that He alone should be invoked that there is indeed a Day of Judgement and that guidance has come to us and we are required to follow it. It calls us to carefully scrutinise our relationship with our Lord: are we living according to the dictates of 'none has the right to be worshipped save of Allah' or not? This opening chapter, despite its brevity, calls man to fulfil the rights of Tawhid, the right that Allah has over us to worship Him alone without any partners, in thirty places.

Stories of the Prophets (IIPH Version)
This book deals with the important events of God's prophets and Messengers from Adam, the first prophet, to Jesus (peace be upon them all), compiling the stories from the Qur'an and the narrations of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that have been authentically reported. Believing in all the Messengers and prophets of Allah is one of the pillars of faith in Islam. Denying any of them is a form of disbelief which if not repented leads to the hell-fire. Similarly, exaggerating about any of them beyond the honourable status that Allah, the Almighty, has given them, as the followers of many faiths do, is also wrong. {The Messenger [Muhammad] believes in what has been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the believers. Each one [of them] believes in Allah, His Angels, His books, and His Messengers. We make no distinction between any of His Messengers. And they say: We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination.} (Qur'an 12: 3) {So relate the stories that perhaps they will give thought.} (Qur'an 7: 176) The renowned commentator on the Qur'an, expert in Hadith, and historian, Ismeel ibn Katheer has compiled the Stories of the Prophets from the Qur'an and the narrations of the Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) that have been authentically reported. The book is unique in its content, dealing with the important events of the prophets and Messengers with all authenticity right from Adam, the first prophet, to Jesus, peace be upon them all. As for Prophet Muhammad, the author has written a separate book about his biography. Ibn Katheer's Stories of the Prophets has been translated here by Husain Maqbool. |
