Water and wine are not only words, when used in poetry they give a supernatural sense. They always contain different meanings and sometimes don't have any meaning but are meant to be felt and observed within through deep awareness. A seeker calls himself water and Beloved wine, Therefore is wistful to dissolve in the wine completely, lose it's color and give taste of love. Before one reads these, it is vital to be aware about it's signs and depth, about the path where it leads to, what it holds next? One needs to be in love, drink the wine of love and get ready to wane itself. Since poetry is a coded language of Lovers, who speak to their Beloved in an indifferent way, in madness, in anguish within grief and many other ways. They describe many more things about, Like Beauty, Qualities, Kindness, Closeness, separation, Union, Nature, Beauty, Enlightenment, hope and so on.

Hafiz 'Abd al-Ghani ibn 'Abd al-Wahid al-Maqdisi's Reports on the Dajjal (Akhbar al-Dajjal) is a collection of Prophetic narrations that mention the Dajjal, known in English as the Antichrist.The subject of the Dajjal, the Antichrist, is one which generates much speculation, which in turn often leads to confusion. It is hoped that publication of this collection will help to clarify the most important issues related to this matter, and help us to draw lessons that are useful and applicable to our own lives. In turn, this clearer understanding may help us to warn those who are close to us about the great trial of the Dajjal and its dangers, and to take steps to protect our own faith and that of our loved ones.The majority of this text consists of the hadith themselves, which are given with their full chain of narrators. Citations to the source of each hadith in the major collections are included in the footnotes; where a narration is present in more than one of the major collections, all citations are included. The text also includes light commentary from both the author and translator when appropriate, regarding the hadith itself, its narrators, the strength of its chain, and other points.This edition includes Arabic text with full vowels, as well as the English translation.About the AuthorHafiz 'Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi was originally from the Jamma'il district of Nablus. His origin (al-Maqdisi) is ascribed to Jerusalem, as Nablus and all its districts are considered part of the jurisdiction of Jerusalem. He was most likely born in the month of Rabi' al-Akhir in the year 541 AH/1146 CE. At an early age, his family moved from Jerusalem to the area of the Ab¿ Salih Mosque just outside the eastern gate of Damascus. Then, they moved again to the foot of Mount Qasioun. There, they built an estate, calling it Dar al-Hanabilah (the Abode of the ¿anbalis).The Hafiz had a pious upbringing in Damascus. He began studying and traveling for knowledge, and heard hadiths as well as most of the books from the majority of scholars in Damascus, Alexandria, Jerusalem, Egypt, Baghdad, Harran, Mosul, Isfahan, and Hamadan. His inclination in scholarship was towards hadith.The Sheikh was known for his worship and his generosity. He was also generous and kind to the students of knowledge. He was of keen intellect and insight and had a light on his face. He used all his time in beneficial matters and did not waste a moment. Some of the scholars said, "No one among Ahl al-Sunnah saw him except that he fell in love with him."Hafiz al-Maqdisi passed away in Cairo in the month of Rab¿¿ al-Awwal in the year 600 AH. He was just under sixty years old. He was buried in the Qarafah graveyard in Egypt.

Whether it be Al-Qaeda, Ahle Hadith, GIA or any other medley of titles, these groups stem from the same source: Muhammad ibn `Abdul Wahhab and his Al-Ikhwan or "Brotherhood" movement. For the first time in English, the reader has a full historical and theological explanation of Salafiyyah. The author, Imam Sulaiman ibn `Abdul Wahhab, was the first to write about and ultimately fall victim to the movement. Anyone seeking answers, Muslim or not, needs to understand that this tribulation did not begin on a Tuesday in 2001, but in the mind of a false prophet more than 200 years ago.

The Discovery of God gives Islam's proof for the existence of God. God is important to us humans, as He answers our prayers in times of hardship. This means we need to take the issue of His existence seriously. Does God exist? This is an important question most people ponder on, and it is pivotal when it means considering His worship and weighing the truth of an afterlife of punishment or bliss. Islam, a religion God sent to Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) 1444 years ago in Arabia, is based on the Quran, which is the literal speech of God. In the Quran, God shows over two hundred signs of Himself in the world that prove His existence, and who better to claim God exists than God Himself? This book states these signs, and thus it confirms to Muslims that they are right to believe and persuades nonbelievers into submitting to Allah, the one true God.

Alevierne er Tyrkiets største religiøse minoritet. Alevierne var blandt de første gæstearbejdere i Danmark, der ankom for over 50 år siden, og de har siden været aktive i det politiske liv som medlemmer af byråd og Folketing. Alligevel er alevierne og alevisme som tro relativt ukendt i Danmark. Hvad tror de på? Hvordan har deres situation historisk set været i Tyrkiet? Hvordan er deres politiske situation i Tyrkiet i dag? Det vil denne bog – der er den første om alevisme i Danmark – prøve at besvare.

Nastradini përfaqëson, në kuptim shpirtëror, kalimin në një nivel superior të vetëdijes. Nëpërmjet anekdotave të tij ai na mëson që: - Të jemi spontan dhe ta lëmë veten të lirë; - Kur diçka nuk ecën, duhet të fillojmë prapë nga fillimi, dhe ta përballojmë problemin me mendje të hapur; - Të lëmë pas shpine të kaluarën dhe të braktisim logjikën për të ndjekur intuitën; - Nuk duhet ta marrim veten shumë seriozisht, në mënyrë që të veprojmë si të na vijë për mbarë, duke pasur besim tek instinkti; - Nuk duhet të shqetësohemi për atë çfarë mendon bota; - Të gjejmë çiltërsinë brenda nesh dhe të kemi besim në të ardhmen, duke vlerësuar çastin; - Të bëjmë atë çfarë na thotë zemra për të realizuar vetëm atë që na entuziazmon; - Të lëmë mënjanë shqetësimet; - Të jemi krenarë për veçantinë tonë, të jemi origjinal; - Të mendojmë në mënyrë të ndryshme nga të tjerët, duke e pranuar "marrëzinë" tone...

تعریف نو از دین، دینداری و جایگاه آن ها در جهان معاصر بر خلاف فضای حاکم در ایران

The Way of Nobility: Knowledge of the Imam (Minh¿j al-kar¿ma f¿ märifat al-im¿ma) is one of the most celebrated works in favour of the Sh¿¿¿ belief in the Im¿ma. Apparently authored for the Mongol ruler Öljeitü Kh¿n, this work by al-¿All¿ma al-¿ill¿ presents a concise but crucial summary of key arguments in favour of the Imamate of ¿Al¿ b. Ab¿ ¿¿lib and his descendants. The work also contains detailed evidence from Sunn¿ historical and ¿ad¿th sources to establish the lack of qualifications for leadership of the Muslim community by those persons whom the majority of Muslims followed, namely, the first three so-called 'rightly guided caliphs' (al-khulaf¿¿ al-r¿shid¿n).

"The author of this book is the great Shadhili Shaykh Sidi 'Ali al Jamal of Fez, Morocco, who died in 1194 Hijrah. The original Arabic title of the book was 'Advice to the Seeker on the Path of Asceticism' or 'Beautiful Rubies in Understanding the Meaning of Man'. My first exposure to this book came through Diwan Press, 1977 complete translation of the text by Aisha 'Abd ar-Rahman at-Tarjumana, which was produced under the direction of Shaykh Abdulqadir al-Murabit. I loved the book, benefited from it, and was inspired to read the original in Arabic. A photocopy of a handwritten version of the book later came into my possession. The original handwritten manuscript uses classical and Qur'anic Arabic and Sufi terminology with a Maghrebi vernacular. The style of the writing is free-flowing and repetitive, with long paragraphs and sentences covering several ideas in a charmingly quaint fashion. A method of exposition which was common practice with the learned men of past centuries, when books and reading were rare. This version was likely to have been handed down through several generations of the family of Ibn Ajiba (another great Moroccan Shaykh, who died in 1224 Hijrah). The manuscript was written in 1265 Hijrah in a partly colloquial Maghrebi script by the grandson of the author, with many variations in the quality of the writing, the size of the words and lengths of the sentences. A few years on having enjoyed the book in the original Arabic, I felt inspired to produce a revised version with the topics rearranged, which would be more reader-friendly. By Allah's generosity, some of my close brothers and students in Islam, especially Shaykh Hosam Raouf, encouraged me to abridge and edit the Teachings from a Classical Sufi Master and translate the book. Throughout this project, I felt the guiding light of the deceased author and his acceptance of this work. Sidi Mustafa al-Basir, a contemporary Darqawi Shaykh, (died 1427 AH/2006 CE), told me that Sidi 'Ali al-Jamal had written a few pages at a time and dropped them from the window into the courtyard of his house. It was his successor, Moulay al-Arabi al-Darqawi, who collected the pages and put them together in the form of a book. When Sidi Mustafa visited us from Morocco in December 2002, he was delighted to hear this selection from Sidi 'Ali al-Jamal's work had just been completed. He, himself, had thought of doing something similar but had never managed it. This rendering from Sidi 'Ali's work has been produced with the express purpose of serving the cause of original Islam and the Prophetic Household, from whom this Shaykh is descended. Our ultimate accountability and gratitude is to Almighty Allah and His generosity. "Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri
