Jibrīl asked the Prophet (May Allāh elevate his rank & grant him peace) about various aspects of faith, starting with Islām, then ʾĪmān, and finally ʾIḥsān. When asked about mn (faith), the Prophet (May Allah increase his position and grant him peace) delivered a detailed response, outlining six key characteristics that compose the core of faith:
Have faith in Allah.Have faith in His Angels.Have Faith in His Books.Have faith in His Messengers.Belief in the Second Coming.Belief in Divine Decree and Ordainment,

Imām Muslim and others authentically reported in the Hadīth of ʿUmar bin al-Khattāb (May Allāh be pleased with him) that the angel Jibrīl came to the Prophet (May Allāh elevate his rank & grant him peace) in the image of a man asking him about Islām, ʾĪmān, ʾIḥsān, and finally asked him about the signs of the Last Hour. So, the Prophet (May Allāh elevate his rank & grant him peace) when asked about ʾĪmān he answered by saying:“ʾĪmān is that you believe in Allāh, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, the Last Day, and that you believe in the Divine Decree and Ordainment; the good of it as well as the bad.”Our Noble Prophet (May Allāh elevate his rank & grant him peace) clarified in this tremendous Ḥadīth the fundamentals of our belief and creed, distinguishing the believer from the disbeliever.

About This Book:
"Brief Explanation of the Words of Salah" is a 30-page paperback book that will be released in 2020. The basic goal of this book is to describe each and every Arabic word which is called in the Salah five times a day. This book is intended for Muslims who do not speak Arabic but want to comprehend the prayers they say.Each chapter corresponds to one of the daily prayers and is divided into five chapters. Every Chapter of this book describes everything about Salah in every different aspect. This explanation of Salah is in detail to understand Salah and its importance. The book offers transliterations of Arabic terms to help readers follow along.
The book finishes with a discussion on the importance of comprehending the language used in prayers. The Author believes that understanding the practices of Islam can help you to build a strong relationship with FaithThis book is a most recommended and dependable resource for Muslims to understand the importance of salah and also the Arabic words which are called during Salah, This book's well-written and educational information is certain to help readers build a closer connection with their faith. The five daily prayers are a fundamental part of Islamic life. It is one of the five pillars of Islam. However, the sad reality is that most Muslims do not understand what they are saying in Arabic to their Lord.
This leads to their daily prayers feeling more like chores than a real connection with their Maker. In this brief book, I intend to explain every expression used in the prayer so that they no longer remain just empty words but phrases with real intended meanings. I have intentionally kept this work small and to the point so that it can be quickly read and reviewed on a regular basis to integrate the meanings of the words of salah in the reader’s mind. I hope that through it the reader can learn to build a real connection with Allah in his/her prayer and find real peace and tranquility through his/her worship.

Obligation and Timing:
All adult Muslims who are physically and psychologically capable must fast during the month of Ramadan. The sighting of the new moon determines the start and end of Ramadan, and fasting begins at dawn (Fajr) and ends at nightfall (Maghrib).
Intention:
It is critical to have a serious intention to fast each day before sunrise. The purpose can be formed in the heart and does not need to be expressed verbally.
Invalidators:
While fasting, Muslims are supposed to refrain from eating, drinking, and engaging in personal connections from the start of Fajr prayer until sunset. It is also vital to avoid doing anything that will invalidate the fast, such as purposely vomiting or breaking the fast.
Exceptions & Exemptions:
Certain events, such as illness, travel, menstruation, postpartum bleeding, pregnancy, and breastfeeding, may exempt people from fasting. Except for those with chronic disease or advanced age, who may be compelled to provide fidyah (feeding a needy person) instead, these people must make up for the missed fasts at a later date.
Taraweeh Prayer:
The Taraweeh prayer is an optional prayer conducted after the required Isha prayer during the evenings of Ramadan. It is highly recommended and traditionally consists of congregational recitation of lengthy passages of the Qur'an.
This is a concise presentation on the rulings of fasting taken from the treatise “al-Ilmām bi shayin min ʾAḥkām al-Ṣiyām.” I saw the need which called for it. This concise treatise includes in whole the foundation of the rulings (of Ṣiyām).

Shaykh Muhammad Bin Sad Rasln is a well-known Islamic scholar noted for his writings on different elements of Islam, including fasting. While I do not have access to the specific book or lecture titled "The Excellence of Fasting & the Fasting Person's Conduct" by Shaykh Muhammad Bin Sad Rasln, I can give you a general overview of the importance of fasting in Islam and the fasting person's conduct based on Islamic teachings.The other name for fasting in Arabic is Sawm. Is the pillar of Islam. The Muslims celebrate and practice this pillar during the month of RAMADAN. It entails fasting from dawn to sundown from food, drink, and other physical demands. Fasting is not about cutting off from eating and drinking it's about to maintain patience and tolerance in behaviors It is a method of spiritual cleansing, self-discipline, and enhanced devotion to Allah (God). Fasting provides several physical and spiritual benefits.
Fasting physically gives rest and purification for the digestive system, aids in detoxification, and can increase general well-being. Fasting helps Muslims develop self-control, patience, and empathy for those who are less fortunate. It is also a time of intensified prayer, introspection, and seeking Allah's proximity. Each act of worship one devotes to Allāh Almighty is tied with several virtues. Whether it is prayer, Zakat, Hajj, or Fasting, all of them are laden with numerous virtues. Plainly clear verses are expressed in the Noble Book of Allāh, encouraging [Muslims] to fast to draw oneself closer to Allāh Almighty. Also, these verses explore the virtues of fasting. Consider the saying of Allāh: “Verily, the Muslims (those who submit to Allāh in Islām) men and women, the believers men and women (who believe in Islāmic Monotheism).
The men and the women who are obedient (to Allāh), the men and women who are truthful (in their speech and deeds), the men and the women who are patient (in performing all the duties which Allāh has ordered and in abstaining from all that Allāh has forbidden), the men and the women who are humble (before their Lord Allāh), the men and the women who give Sadaqat (i.e. Zakat, and alms, etc.), the men and the women who observe Ṣawm (fast) (the obligatory fasting during the month of Ramaḍān, and the optional Nawafil fasting), the men and the women who guard their chastity (from illegal sexual acts) and the men and the women who remember Allāh much with their hearts and tongues (while sitting, standing, lying, etc. for more than 300 times extra over the remembrance of Allāh during the five compulsory congregational prayers) or praying extra additional Nawafil prayers of night in the last part of night, etc.) Allāh has prepared for them forgiveness and a great reward (i.e., Paradise).” [Sūrah al-ʾAḥzāb (33):35]
Is the Trinity Doctrine Divinely Inspired? By M. A. C. Cave

About This Book:
M. A. C. Cave's work "Is the Trinity Doctrine Divinely Inspired?" focuses on the origins and development of the Trinity doctrine within Christianity. Cave makes the case that the Trinity theory is a later invention influenced by Greek philosophical ideas rather than divinely inspired. The book is organized into three sections, each of which examines a distinct facet of the Trinity belief. Cave reviews the biblical evidence frequently presented in support of the Trinity in the first part. He contends that the Bible does not directly teach the Trinity and proposes alternate interpretations for the verses normally linked with the doctrine.
Cave delves into the historical evolution of the Trinity doctrine in the second part. He emphasizes that the idea did not completely emerge until the fourth century and shows how Greek philosophical conceptions such as the Logos influenced its development. Cave delves into the consequences of his discoveries in the third section. Cave's book has received appreciation for its scholarly approach and for illuminating the historical context of the Trinity belief.
This book serves as the food for thought to every right-minded person and the followers of Modern Christianity. The concept of the Trinity has baffled every Christian denomination. Although Mr. M. A. C. Cave was a Christian who believed in the Trinity before, when he carried – out his research into the origin of this doctrine, he discovered to his utter amazement, that it was a later development which was conceived and engineered by various Christian writers and thinkers.
Mr. M. A. C. Cave builds up evidence that the Trinity is nothing but a man – made doctrine that falls short of being a revelation from God. Subsequently, this tailor – made doctrine lost its angularity on account of built-in contradictions and proved thorny on the side of Christian hierarchy in general and the clergy in particular who are trying to prop it up

About The Author:
Imam Muhammad al-Shaybani -- He is Abu ‘Abdullah Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn Farqad al-Shaybani. Muhammad was born in Wasit in 132 AH, and grew up in Kufa. He was a pupil of Abu Hanifah. Imam Shafi’i said, "I have not seen anyone more eloquent than him. I used to think when I saw him reciting the Qur’an that it was as if the Qur’an had been revealed in his language."
He also said, "I have not seen anyone more itelligent than Muhammad ibn al-Hasan." Dhahabi said, "He narrated from Malik ibn Anas and others, and he was one of the great oceans of knowledge and fiqh, and he was strong [when he narrated] from Malik." Muhammad said, "I stood at Malik’s door for three years and I heard [the Muwatta’] from him [with] more than seven hundred hadith." He died in Rayy in 189 AH.
About This Book:
Translated by Mohammed Abdurrahman & Abdus Samad Clarke This quote from one of the greatest authorities on hadith of all time is sufficient recommendation. The version of the Muwatta narrated by Imam Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Shaybani, one of the two leading pupils of Imam Abu Hanifah, directly from his three years of study with Imam Malik will be of particular interest not only to students of Hanafi fiqh, but also to students of hadith in general. Imam Malik composed the Muwatta’ over a period of forty years to represent the "well-trodden path" of the people of Madina.
Its name also means that it is the book that is "many times agreed upon"— about whose contents the people of Madina were unanimously agreed—and that is "made easy and facilitated". Its high standing is such that people of every school of fiqh and all of the imams of hadith scholarship agree upon its authenticity. Imam Shafi’i said, "There is not on the face of the earth—after the Book of Allah—a book which is more sahih than the book of Malik."
Shah Wali Allah Dihlawi (1114-1176 AH) said, "My breast expanded and I became certain that the Muwatta’ is the most sahih book to be found on the earth after the Book of Allah." Imam Malik -- Imam Malik is the imam of the imams, the leader of the people of knowledge of Madinah, Malik ibn Anas ibn Malik ibn Abi ‘Amir al-Asbahi al-Madani, born in 94 AH, 95 AH or even 99 AH.

Ibn Taymiyyah said about al-Imam Ahmad, “He was the virtuous imam, and the complete leader with whom Allah clarified the truth, rejected falsehoods, clarified the correct methodology and repudiated the innovations of innovators, the heresies of heretics, and the doubts of the doubtful.” [Bayan Talbis al-Jahmiyyah (3/312)] Al-Subki said, “He was the virtuous imam and the leader of a way of thought. He was patient during the midst of his inquisition. He was the teacher and exemplar of Ahl al-Sunnah.”
[Tabagāt al-Shafi’iyyah al-Kubra (2/27)] Al-Shafi’i said of him, “Aḥmad is an imam in eight characteristics: He is an imam in ḥadīth, an imam in jurisprudence, an imam in language, an imam in Qur’an, an imam in poverty, an imam in asceticism, an imam in abstinence, and an imam in Sunnah.” [Tabagāt al-Ḥanabilah of Ibn Abi Ya’la (1/5)] Al-Ustadh Ad-ham al-Junaydi stated, “Ibn Badran was skilled in all rational, literary, and mathematical sciences. He was encyclopedic in his knowledge of law and grammar.
He was truly an authority. He was a virtuous shaykh, forsaking the vanities of this world, austere in his dress, home, and life.” [Alam al-Adab wa ‘l-Fan (1/224-225)] Al-Shaykh Muhammad Bahjat al-Bayṭār said, “He had high aspirations and many efforts in reviving the religious and scholarly awakening in the Levant. He resembled the scholars of the Salaf in that he taught in private, preached in public, authored books, and forsook the vanities of the worldly life.” [In the introduction of Munadamat al-Atlal]

About This Book:
It covers the Book of Purification, the Book of Prayer, the Book of Funerals, the Book of Zakat, the Book of Fasting, the Book of Rites, the Book of Jihad and the Book of Food. Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd said in al-Madkhal al-Mufassal, Zād al-Mustaqnī’ fī Ikhtisār al-Muqni’ is the text that came to be considered as the main source for the study of the Hanbalī madhab (school of jurisprudence) and quintessential for the students in the land of the Hanābilah (i.e. the Arabian Peninsula); particularly in the region of Najd. The people busied themselves reading, memorising and writing commentaries upon this book. This was carried out in study circles in the masājid where the scholars imparted knowledge to others and also in formal learning institutions.
This book was studied in-depth so much so that some scholars provided explanations just upon the phrases within it so as to make it easy for the new learner. This was expanded to include proofs and evidences for those in the intermediate level. In the levels thereafter, proofs and evidences were fused with the disputes that exist within the madhab and in comparison to the other madhabs. Some scholars said: The texts of Zād and Bulūgh, Suffice for one to attain genius. They indicated through this [the importance of] Zād al-Mustaqni’ with regards to the study of fiqh and Bulūgh al-Marām with regards to the study of hadīth.
No book as exemplary has been authored since it that contains as many important points (muhimāt) and issues (masā’il) as Zād. In fact, Zād excelled in terms of quantity and content. It is said that there are approximately three thousand important points and issues mentioned and similarly another three thousand inferred from the text. Meaning that it possesses within it around six thousand issues. This is what we heard from some of the noble scholars of the madhab in our time. While [in the current time] the students of knowledge transmit from some of the contemporary scholars that the number of issues in Zād goes beyond thirty thousand. Thus one should not avoid it.

About This Book:
Everyone chases after happiness, yet few fully recognize what it is or whence it comes from. Happiness isn’t a destination but a journey needing certain inner qualities and a right state of mind to experience and reap. It’s neither sold as a commodity nor can be bought, except through carefully crafting one’s character and following a plan of action. For indeed, those who don’t plan will fail to realize desired results. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Those among us (destined to be) from people of happiness [in the Hereafter] will (find it easy to) enact deeds of people of happiness...” [Sahih Al-Bukhari, #4948].
In other words, by choosing a path reflecting attitudes of happy people one will recognize its reality and the ease and pleasantry in having good deeds done that are in themselves, characteristics of happy people. It requires contemplation of an alternate world view to one that compounds first world problems, for example. Shaykh Nasir Al-Sa’di mentions in this short summary, eight ways to achieving the goal of bringing about happiness while driving away its opposites - sadness, grief, and anxiety.
Reaching it is contingent on three main causes he identifies to leading a goodly life. These succinct pointers are easy to understand and you’ll be able to identify the impediments you need to rework and hence live your life with happiness. This will transform you into being the best Muslim you can in today’s complex world, and will also inspire you to train your inner self. Whoever follows these eight steps will find self-awareness and a pathway to joy and success in this life and the next, Insha’Allah.

The Dress Code For The Muslim in The Quran And Sunnah Women By Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani (D. 1420H)

About This Book:
"The Dress Code for Muslim Women" by Imam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen Al-Albaani is a detailed treatise on Islamic women's dress. Imam Al-Albaani presents a thorough explanation of the different features and criteria of Islamic clothing, drawing on the Quran and Sunnah. The book starts by highlighting the importance of humility in Islam. The Author said that if you think modesty is the only virtue to endorse by Allah But it's not the only virtue This establishes the groundwork for the ensuing consideration of the intricacies of Islamic women's attire.
The most important requirement and primary requirement for Muslim women by Allah is to cover the complete body except for the face and hand He elaborates on the reasons behind this prescription and provides insights into the wisdom and benefits of following this dress code. Furthermore, the book looks into the various s of attire that are considered appropriate under Islamic norms. Imam Al-Albaani bases his arguments on Islamic sources and academic interpretations throughout the text. He explains the fundamentals of Islamic attire, with the goal of providing clarity and advice to Muslim women in adhering to this aspect of their faith. Allah, the Most High, said: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters, and the women of the believers, to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments,” Al-Ahzaab (33): 59.
In Islam, women are held in a high position: whether a woman is a daughter or a mother, single or married, rich or poor, Islam has honored all believing women. At the center of society is the family home, the heartbeat of which are the women who raise the next generation. This is why women are crucial to the making of a virtuous society. When women achieve righteousness, the world around them will in turn rectify and refine itself, because it is in the hands of women that upcoming nations are nurtured. Being a complete way of life, Islam has a code of conduct for both males and females, and one’s clothing is an aspect of good conduct that presents itself outwardly.
Contrary to the flawed arguments of those who oppose Islam, our religion is one that venerates and respects women more than any other creed or ideology. In today’s society, many have discussed and debated the clothing of a Muslim woman. It has become a controversial issue that is often brought up to attack Islam, with some even going as far as to say that aspects of Muslim women’s clothing are oppressive or that they have nothing to do with the religion. The dress code for Muslim women is a matter of great importance which the Qur’an and Sunnah has already resolved for us. Following guidance outlined by both is a true mark of a believing woman, a sign of her piety, a means to elevating her rank and attaining the status of a woman of Paradise.
This extensive text covers important attributes and intricate details related to the clothing of believing women, whom Allah mentions in the above verse alongside the wives and daughters of the Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon him). Nobility, dignity, and respect lies in following what Allah and His Messenger have instructed us with, and it is the path to success in this life and the Hereafter. Having our dear sisters understand and apply in their lives what is published within these pages, is vital to achieving the pleasure of our Lord.
In the words of the author, may Allah have mercy on him, “This is a fine thesis and a beneficial treatise, Insha'Allah, which I have compiled to make clear the clothing that it is incumbent upon the Muslim woman to wear when she goes out of her house and the conditions that she must fulfil in order for her garb to be Islamic. In doing so, I have relied on the Qur’an and Sunnah, being guided also by the traditions and sayings of the Companions (radiyAllahu`anhum) and the Imams.
Islamic Conquests Throughout The Ages by Dr Abdul Aziz Ibn Ibraheem Al Omary

About This Book:
The literal meaning of al-fath is the antonym of closure (i.e., opening), but what is meant by it here is the conquest of lands at war with the Muslims and the entry into the lands of the enemy. The plural is futooh. The word fath can also mean victory and conquest. The understanding of al-futooh is not limited to military victory. It goes beyond to include all aspects of life, whether military, ethical or moral, which combined, caused the people, in the lands that were conquered, to embrace Islam willmgly and by conviction, triumphing the creed of Tawheed (professing and believing in Allah's Oneness), as opposed to shirk (idolatry or polytheism) that was common in those territories.
The word futooh, with this general understanding, means the jihad (strive) which the Muslims undertook, the conquest of the lands, pavmg the way for the call to Allah and conveying the Religion of Islam to the world, and demolishing the iniquitous powers of evil that forbade the Muslims and the people in those different lands (from following Islam). It also includes the military events and the accompanying da'wah (call to Islam), beginning from the era of the Messenger of Allah ^, and becoming more prominent in its own sense during the era of the Caliphate Abu Bakr As-Siddeeq ^ and continued throughout the eras of the righteous Caliphs who succeeded him, and the other different Islamic eras that came after them, such as the Umayyads, the 'Abbasids, the Ayyubids, the Mameluks, the Ottomans and other Islamic states that followed them or were contemporaneous with them. It is also appropriate to include significant defensive operations in the events of the conquests whose aim was to repel enemies and protect previous conquests.

About This Book:
The system works for the political Islamic movement which works to establish a caliphate commonly known as Hizb ut-Tahrir The system works under renowned religious and political authority and governs according to Islamic law. While it purports to be a peaceful organization, its ideology, and techniques have been a source of contention and discussion. This system will look at the political and religious issues with the goal to grow the community or state Political Objectives: Hizb ut-Tahrir aspires to build a global caliphate controlled by Islamic law in order to unite Muslims and realize its vision of the perfect Islamic society.
The organization believes that establishing a caliphate requires political engagement, ideological persuasion, and the eventual destruction of current governments. Hizb ut-Tahrir is not agreed with the use of violence for the sack of some goals or objectives that its rhetoric and tactics may contribute to radicalization. Modernity, in proportions unprecedented in the Islamic Tradition, has spawned several Political Activist Groups that have reduced their understanding of Islām to something of a political machine. They have lost the fundamental understanding that while politics is a part of the Islamic Sharī‘ah, Islām itself is not a political movement nor an ideology. We hope that the dissertation in this book gently reaches the ears of those who are adamant in establishing a modernized Islamic state, while simultaneously, perhaps unknowingly, are dismissing the very essence of the Religion, the Tawḥīd, to the back seat.
