Islamic Banking And Finance – What It Is and What It Could Be

This text has been designed for use by professionals new to the field of Islamic banking and finance, and by students at undergraduate level or above. It covers the historical, theological, commercial, legal, institutional and macro-economic factors affecting the modern world of Islamic banking and finance and is organised into four main sections: Islam and the Shari’ah, Traditional Contract Forms, Contemporary Practices, and A Response to Capitalism. Views both for and against the current direction of the Islamic banking and finance industry are presented and a number of reforms are suggested at the institutional and contractual levels. Traditional and contemporary interpretations of Islam are contrasted, along with differences of opinion among the various schools of thought, so that the reader can better understand current discourse among scholars of Shari`ah. In a section devoted entirely to the modern application of Islamic contract law, fourteen case studies provide a detailed analysis of the extent to which modern Islamic financial products adhere to the legal principles outlined elsewhere in the book. Particular attention has been paid to clarity of expression in order that complex concepts can be absorbed quickly. To aid the learning process, an extensive index and table of contents allows ease of reference, and suggestions for further advanced reading are provided at the end of each section. Self tests allow students to keep pace with their progress, and these also act as a guide on content for more experienced readers. An extensive Arabic glossary is provided, and key terms are transliterated in the main body of the text.

Contributions from Taris Ahmad, Tarek El Diwany, Ahmed Fazel, Haitham al-Haddad, Salman Hasan, Sufyan Gulam Ismail, Muhammad Amin Kholwadia, Faizal Manjoo, Nejatullah Siddiqi, Bashir Timol, and Shaharuddin Zainuddin.

The Fiqh of Dawah – A Commentary of 40 Hadiths

Thursday, October 13th, 2011
The Fiqh of Dawah - A Commentary of 40 Hadiths

The Fiqh of Dawah - A Commentary of 40 Hadiths - Darul Ishaat UK

The Fiqh of Da‘wah attempts to explain this duty in a detailed and thorough way. It is based on a comprehensive collection of forty hadiths pertaining to the preaching methods of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) as well as his teachings regarding Da‘wah to Allah. The commentary then elaborates upon the hadiths, carefully outlining the virtue, principles, conditions, and etiquette of this lofty duty. Furthermore, the work documents a number of practical examples from the lives of the pious predecessors and from those more recent, showing how they were prepared to make Da‘wah even in the most inhospitable of circumstances. This work should prove an indispensable guide for anyone who wishes to seriously understand and practice this forgotten obligation in the twenty-first century.

There are few who will disagree that the duty of Da‘wah, or calling, to Islam has been severely neglected in our times when the need for it is more pronounced than ever. It is either not undertaken altogether, or if it is performed, then it is undertaken without the knowledge of the etiquette, preconditions, and general teachings that the sacred sources of Islam have provided for it. Therefore, the Da‘wah is many times bereft of the results and blessings that could be attained.

Saviours of Islamic Spirit (10-CD Set)

A riveting series of lectures to captivate, inspire, and revive the hearts of the young and old alike.

Based on the acclaimed work of the late Shaykh Abul Hasan Ali al-Nadwi, these lectures draw on the lives of ten of the most influential personalities of Islam after the time of the beloved Companions from Hasan al-Basri, ‘Umar ibn ‘Abd al-’Aziz, and Salah al-Din to ‘Izz al-Din ibn ‘Abd al-Salam. These lectures also cover the time-period of the Tartars and their ultimate conversion into the fold of Islam, which ensued from the untiring struggle of the Muslims living in their midst.

The lives of these exemplary individuals and the conviction with which they endured their struggles, will impart a compelling and invigorating way of life—a way of life tread by the Prophet e himself.

“If the lives of these great individuals had been available to me when I was younger, I would have had a completely different perspective of my religion and of the world around me” —The speaker’s reflection on the Saviours of Islamic Spirit.

This book comprises of the words of guidance by Hadhrat Shaykh-ul-Hadith Mawlana Yusuf Motala, Senior Deputy of the Eminent Hadhrat Shaykh-ul-Hadith Mawlana Muhammad Zakariyya Muhajir Madani (may Allah illuminate his grave) and founder and Shaykh-ul-Hadith of Darul Uloom Al-Arabiyya Al-Islamiyya, Bury, UK, that were delivered in Hadhrats spiritual gatherings during the blessed month of Ramadhan over a period of years.

This book contains detailed accounts of the lives, eminence and excellence of the saints of the Chishti order from the Noble Messenger up to Hadhrat Shaykh Mawlana Muhammad Zakariyya Muhajir Madani (may Allah illuminate his grave) in a unique manner.

In the blessed biography of the Noble Messenger (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), along with the mention of his lofty status, an outline of the blessed life of the Noble Messenger has been achieved in an interesting and extraordinary style.

The lives and excellence of these esteemed saints have been elucidated in such an effective and impeccable style that, besides informing the reader of their high standing, it also ignites a passion and desire within the reader to emulate them. The highly complex subject of sulook (spiritual path-treading) and tasawwuf (Sufism) has been explained in a simple, straightforward and impactful manner, which can only be accomplished by a master of the field. In the process, objections that generally arise regarding tasawwuf and the noble assembly of Sufis are automatically resolved and those treading in their righteous footsteps acquire invaluable and necessary guidance. In summary, this book is the essence of sulook and tasawwuf, an account of its eminent masters and a precious gift to the path-treaders.

The Inseparability Of Sharia & Tariqa

Friday, July 22nd, 2011
The Inseparability Of Sharia & Tariqa

The Inseparability Of Sharia & Tariqa - darul ishaat UK

 

The Inseparability Of Shari’a & Tariqa – Islamic Law And Purification Of The Heart

How did Islamic law develop?
What Are the Foundations of Islamic Jurisprudence?
What is the relationship between Shari’a and Tariqa?
What is Taqlid and does it still hold relevant in our time?
Which sciences must be mastered before one can interpret the Quran and hadith?

Shari’a & Tariqa is an essential book for anyone wishing to understand the foundations and application of Islamic law, and the relationshio that purification of the heart has with traditional Islamic jurisprudence. The esteemed author, in this, his last and final work, draws evidence from the Quran, Sunna, pious predecessors, past and recent scholars, history, and rationale to clarify the confusion many have when searching for a true scholar of Islam. This book explains how many of the controversies and sectarianism within the Ummah today are born out of ignorance of both Shari’a and Tariqa.

Praise of the Author from Distinguished Scholars

‘Shaykh and honorable Imam; jurist and noble scholar of hadith; fragrant flower of India and Arabia; master of spiritual realities [haqiqa] and allusions [majaz]; our leader and our blessing (from Allah)’. – Shaykh ‘Abd al-Fattah Abu Ghudda, Halab, Syria

‘It is evident to one who takes a look at his works that he had a brilliancy, both in knowledge and with the pen, like that of Ibn al-Jawzi and Imam Ghazali.
