"A¿k imi¿ her ne meyve varsa ¿u kainat bä¿nda,Her dem bäka bir alemin bäka bir dal¿nda,Yarat¿r m¿ hiç ¿u Alemi lüzumsuz bö yere,Her nereye baksan gösterir sana bir mucize."Hz. Mevlana ve ¿ems-i Tebrizi'nin tan¿¿mas¿n¿n s¿rlar¿n¿ arät¿ran üç arkadä¿n 1200'lü y¿llara ¿ems'in pe¿ine dü¿erek ilahi äk¿n anlam¿n¿ arät¿rmalar¿ ve dinlerin tarihi kökenlerine uzanarak ulät¿klar¿ sembolik kavramlar¿ canl¿ bir biçimde anlat¿yor. Bu uzun mistik yolculukta her varl¿k kendi varl¿¿¿na bir delil olu¿turmakta ve varl¿klar evreninin toplam¿ yarat¿c¿y¿ göstermektedir. Bu yolculuk esnas¿nda evrendeki en küçük yap¿tä¿ndan en büyü¿üne kadar felsefi bir incelemeyle hareket eden eser, yarat¿c¿n¿n varl¿¿¿n¿ tek tek ispatlayarak ilerliyor. A¿k-¿ Mesnevi, içerisinde yer alan 40 adet yolculukla beraber insan¿ evrenle bir bütün halinde bir iç yolculu¿a ç¿kartarak ruhlar ve evrenler aleminin gizemlerini sunuyor.A¿k-¿ Mesnevî isimli bu eserimiz, parça parça iç içe geçmi¿ halkalar halinde, aynen Mevlana'n¿n di¿er k¿ymetli eseri -Fihi Ma Fih-Ne Varsa ¿çindedir- gibi varl¿k alemine ait bir k¿s¿m varl¿klar¿n, Kainat¿ mü¿ahede etmesini ve yarat¿l¿¿ delillerinin kendi lisanlar¿yla konu¿turulmas¿n¿ anlatan 40 adet hikayeden olu¿ur. Bu uzun mistik yolculukta her varl¿k kendi varl¿¿¿na bir delil olu¿turmakta ve varl¿klar evreninin toplam¿ yarat¿c¿y¿ göstermektedir. Bu yolculuk esnas¿nda evrendeki en küçük yap¿tä¿ndan en büyü¿üne döru felsefi bir incelemeyle ve s¿ralamayla hareket eden eser, yarat¿c¿n¿n varl¿¿¿n¿ tek tek ispatlayarak ilerliyor. Kainattaki her bir varl¿k, kendi varl¿¿¿na bir delil oldu¿u gibi, ondan çok daha önemli olan yarat¿c¿s¿n¿ da gösterdi¿i ve ilan etti¿i gibi; kainatta gerçekle¿en pek çok hikmetli tabiat harikas¿ varl¿k da, yine onu gösterir.¿¿te bu önemli eserimizde, varl¿klar¿n bu yönünü ele alarak kainatta var olan en büyük cisimlerden en küçü¿üne döru giden bir s¿ralamada örnek olarak seçti¿imiz baz¿ varl¿klara ili¿kin yarat¿l¿¿ delillerini hikaye tarz¿nda aktararak anlatacä¿z. Eserin metodolojisi ve dokusu, en küçük ve en büyü¿ü bir çember üzerinde birle¿tiren bir yarat¿l¿¿ silsilesi içerisinde devam eden bir yolculuktan ibarettir. Bu yolculu¿umuza, kainattaki en büyük cisimle ve onun hikayesiyle bälayarak, en küçü¿ün hikayesini anlatarak bitirece¿iz ve sonunda görece¿iz ki, kainat bir bütün olarak en küçük yap¿tä¿ndan en büyü¿üne kadar mükemmel bir yarat¿l¿¿ silsilesi içerir ve her varl¿k kendi lisan-¿ haliyle yarat¿c¿s¿na i¿aret eder ve onun varl¿¿¿n¿ bildirir. Dolay¿s¿yla, kainattaki en büyük ve en küçük aras¿nda, yarat¿l¿¿taki zorluk bak¿m¿ndan bir fark olmay¿p, en küçük en büyü¿ün küçültülmü¿ bir sureti hükmündedir.Bu yolculu¿umuz s¿ras¿nda, atomlardan y¿ld¿zlara; sineklerden insanlara kadar kademe kademe s¿ralanan bu yarat¿l¿¿ silsilesi içerisinde birbirine bälant¿l¿ bir silsile-i nuraniye oldu¿u mü¿ahede edilecektir. Ayn¿ zamanda, kendi içerimizde de gerçekle¿en bu yolculu¿un son k¿s¿mlar¿nda ¿öyle bir tablo ile kar¿¿lä¿r¿z ki, yarat¿l¿¿¿n en ince noktalar¿nda küçük ile büyük; zerre ile kürre bir olmaktad¿r ve kendi nefsimiz bu ikisinin aras¿nda bulunan nihayetsiz dereceler aras¿nda yükselip alçalabilmektedir.A¿k-¿ Mesnevi'yi äk ve gizemi tevhid ve dinlerin birli¿i ekseninde birle¿tiren bir modern zaman Mevlana ve Mesnevi felsefesi yolculu¿u olarak da ele alabiliriz.

Second, I give praise and respect to the planter of my physical being, my father Nassardin Abdullah and to the womb that bore me, my mother Sayeeda Abdullah and also to her mother that bore her Doris Garrett, my grandmother who has been there for us since the beginning of my knowledge of her.I give thanks to Allah for my wife Tanya and my sons Kareem Ali, Raheem Hameed,Tariq Jalil and also my stepdaughter Natisha Reid who I pray for each time I prostrate myself to Allah.

And those who are firmly groundedIn knowledge say: "we believe in the book; the whole of itIs from our lord: "and none will grasp the message exceptMen of understanding.My plan is this, to bring the basic message in the Qur'an to the surface of this book without most of the allegorical parts so that the seeker can grasp the message of Allah easier but also develop a hunger for the knowledge in the great book of enlightenment. The seeker of Allah's message when reading this book should also have the Qur'an with them to verify that I am correct, for I am just a man and Allah knows best.May the peace and blessing of Allah be with you.

The Holy Quran, translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali, is a widely popular edition renowned for its high-quality English translation. This sacred book of Islam is believed to be the word of God, revealed to Prophet Muhammad over a period of 23 years through the angel Gabriel. While it was initially committed to memory by his companions, literate believers made written copies during the Prophet's lifetime.The first full compilation of the Quran was done by the first Caliph Abu Bakar, and later recompiled in the original dialect by the third Caliph Uthman.

However, with the growing influence of Islam in the modern world, translations play an important role in introducing and explaining the religion to a wider audience.This particular translation by Abdullah Yusuf Ali is considered the most faithful rendering of the Quran in English.

It might surprise some to know that two religions, Christianity and Judaism, of the three so-called Abrahamic religions do not have anything in common with one of the three, Islam; for after all, except for the fact that they all come from the same geographical region, the Middle East. The reason for such an assumption, for example, the worshiping of "one true" holy God, is that because of Islam's claim and its belief in a unitarian concept of the divine deity that might be the object of its belief and, therefore, its purported worship of that same God, which both Judaism and Christianity aspire to worship. The worship of this one God, Islam only professes to believe and desperately pretends to worship Him. In reality, it actually worships a different god who it calls "Allah". Therefore, these two other religions have nothing in common with Islam, even if, or as, they share a common geographical region, the Middle East. Islam's level of morality and its hatred for all non-Muslims further separates, no, disqualifies it from the other two religions that are actually couched in the love of God, the Lord Almighty. Furthermore, there is only a conjecture, only a veneer that attends to such a professed claim, which attempts invain to link Islam to Abraham, yet without any scintilla of an evidence that shows how links Arabs, including Mohammad its claimed "prophet", as having descended from Abraham. Such a claim, therefore, and that is to say "if", meaning that if one exist, makes it moot, based on the fact that such supposed "one" evidence does exist, since one evidence is not even a far cry sufficient, much less overwhelming! Furthermore, another claim of Abraham and all Biblical prophets were Muslims is so very baseless and, without any substantiated evidential fact or facts, and hence, it neither has a foundation in neither reality or in the Biblical Scriptures' Therefore, again, one is forced to surmise that it must have emanated from the suspicion-filled and the hallucinatory mind of Mohammad, the self-proclaimed, yet a "miracleless-prophet" of Islam. Lastly, but just as equally very important, is the fact that there is no evidence, either from the Judaeo-Christian Scriptures, nor even from the Islamic qurans and all others many so-called "Islamic scriptures," which might point and lead anyone to assume any similarity among these faiths or religions. The best conclusion that anyone can make about this untenable situation is that Islam is aberrant a religion from the Judaeo-Christian perspective, based on its claimed affiliation to the other two "real" Abrahamic religions that were started by the "real" descendants of Abraham from the Middle-Eastern religions. Therefore, Islam has zero supporting evidence for its claim to be Abrahamic!

The Lord of all creation loves those who ask, and He promised them that He would answer their du'a, and that He would make their hopes come true, and that He would give them what they ask for (fulfill their request); as long as they fulfill the statutory conditions when making their du'a and any preventative factors are removed. The text from the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) shows that the supplication described as not being rejected has criteria. In fact, many texts in the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) show that the accepted du'a has rules that are necessary for the one making the du'a to be diligent in following them when making his du'a. Likewise, there are preventive factors that he must take care of so that his du'a is not rejected. Its explanations have come in the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The scholars have called them: the conditions and etiquettes of supplicating. And they are extremely important. It is befitting for the one supplicating while supplicating to be intent on carrying out the etiquettes of supplicating so that his supplication is answered. And to be aware of the affairs that prevent it from being accepted so his supplication won't be rejected.

Knowing the causes of revelation can aid us in developing a sound understanding of the Quraan. Knowledge of the causes of revelation as it descended is a must for the person desiring knowledge of the Quraan. Neglect in understanding the causes of revelation as it descended leads a person to misread the intent of the verses of the Quraan.This book written by the great scholar Imam As-Suyuti (Allaah have mercy on him) explains the authentic reasons for revelation of some of the verse of the Quraan. It is an excellent book to read for both the Common Muslim as well as a Student of Knowledge. It is written in a simple language with many pearls of wisdom.

The Wise Luqman gave his son advice in the form of pearls of wisdom. His advice is relevant in all times and can be used by any parent who wants to raise a child in the light of Islam. His advice is beneficial for adults too and also for new Muslims.It is said that if all parents and children followed the advice of Luqman, then there would be no need to worry about the fate of the children in this life and the Hereafter, because they will be shown the path leading to Paradise.A few verses of the Qur'an containing Luqman's advice to his son contain the key to success in this life and on the Day of Judgment. This book explains these verses of the Quran in a beautiful way. Written by a trustworthy scholar this book is a must read for all Muslims. Even non-Muslims will find many benefits if they follow the advice of Luqman.

Islam has taken care of the creation of a family, and its noble life in the shadow of the teachings of the highly respected Sharia (Islamic law) and the guidance of the best of creatures, our prophet Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah, may Allah bless and greet him. Truly, he was an ideal example and a great example.It is deplorable what has spread in Islamic societies in the form of hasty divorce due to causes that can be corrected. Therefore the author thought it necessary to pay attention to this situation - since it has a bad effect on the individual and society - and also to investigate its causes and study the means of correcting it in the shadow of Islamic teachings. And he began to write about this topic, asking Allah Almighty for help, guidance and acceptance, and hoping that the prudent will accept it and act according to it. This is an excellent book for all those who are already married and who are marrying in the near future to get a glimpse of married life and how to live it in an excellent Islamic way.
