The hadith qudsi are the sayings of the Prophet divinely communicated to him. The present collection has been compiled from all the available books of hadith. The forty chosen here are all well authenticated and present many of the doctrinal, devotional and ethical elements of Islam. A scholarly introduction deals fully with the subject and shows the way in which the hadith qudsi differs from the Qur''an and from the Prophetic hadith.This selection and translation has been made by the translators of An-Nawawi''s Forty Hadith. Forty Hadith Qudsi is regarded as a companion volume and has been printed in similar format with the original Arabic text given alongside the English translation.
This in-depth study presents a detailed analysis and critique of the classic Western work on the origins of Islamic law, Schacht''s Origins of Muhammadan Jurisprudence. Azami''s work examines the sources used by Schacht to develop his thesis on the relation of Islamic law to the Qur''an, and exposes fundamental flaws in Schacht''s methodology that led to the conclusions unsupported by the texts examined. This book is an important contribution to Islamic legal studies from an Islamic perspective.
This is a concise introduction to the life and thought of Ibn 'Arabi who is considered as the 'Greatest of Sufi Masters'.

The vibrant tradition of West African Arabic poetry is dominated by the genre of madih, that is, poetry in praise of the Prophet Muhammad. This genre of poetry has been mostly ignored in Western scholarship and dismissed as mere ''pious praise'' lacking any significant intellectual content. In Poetry in Praise of Prophetic Perfection, Dr Oludamimi Ogunnaike challenges the misconceptions around West African madih poetry and addresses the scope and depth of this genre; he not only explores its rich lyrical nature and its foundations in the Qur''an, Hadith, pre-Islamic and early Islamic poetry, but also its inextricable link to Sufism and Sufi doctrines of cosmology, ontology and epistemology. Drawing on Sufi traditions and practices, the author expounds on the various ways in which West African madih poetry both describes and facilitates the ultimate fulfilment of the human potential, the Perfect Human (al-Insan al-Kamil) or the attainment of the Praiseworthy Station (al-Maqam al-Mahmud) of which the Prophet Muhammad is the highest example.Poetry in Praise of Prophetic Perfection includes translations of numerous extracts from madih poetry (accompanied by the original Arabic); while the Appendix presents a selection of complete poems-the most popular and influential poems of this tradition. Poetry in Praise of Prophetic Perfection is an opportunity for readers to gain access and appreciation of a unique genre of spiritual Islamic poetry, and, given that it includes the original Arabic, also enables the recitation of the poetry for devotional purposes.
Love in the Holy Qur''an is the first work to discuss all aspects of love from the perspective of the Holy Qur''an. The author treats in a simple and accessible style, with reader-friendly and teaching-friendly features, not only of love of God and love of the neighbour, but also of family love; friendship; the stages of falling in love; sexual love; extra-marital love; beauty; taste and much more¿all based entirely on the Holy Qur''an. At least one verse from every chapter¿and over one fifth of the total text of the Holy Qur''an¿is cited. Love in the Holy Qur''an is written and structured both to be read in its totality or as individual ''stand-alone'' chapters to be sampled at will. This work is thus essential reading not only for Muslims and those interested in Islam and the Holy Qur''an, but for all those interested in the secrets and mysteries of love as such. This new edition contains a number of expanded discussions on love and mercy and suggests other types of love not mentioned in previous editions.
