Fazlur Rahman was one of the great 20th-century Muslim modernists, whose prolific writing and sheer number of students who make up a who’s who of Islamic studies throughout North America reveal the impact that he has had on both academe and on Muslim communities throughout the world. The modernist approach is contrasted with the radical approach of Mawlana Mawdudi of Pakistan.

David Headley, the American Pakistani also known as Daood Gilani, lived a double life. One day he would stroll through Central Park in his tailored Armani suit as a true New Yorker, and the next he would browse in the bazaar in Lahore wearing traditional Pakistani clothes. One day he would drink champagne at the most extravagant clubs; on another he would prostrate himself in prayer in remote Pakistan and pledge fidelity to Allah.

The Koran, the sacred text at the heart of the second-largest religion in the world, is regarded by Muslims as the exact word of God as revealed to the prophet Muhammad. Representing the ultimate authority on almost every issue related to Muslim life, the Koran’s lessons and parables offer the faithful moral and spiritual guidance.

A provocative manifesto for an interpretation of Islam that synthesizes liberal ideas and respect for the Islamic tradition. Persuasive and inspiring, Islam Without Extremes offers a desperately needed intellectual basis for the reconcilability of Islam and religious, political, economic, and social freedoms.

Shahan Mufti’s family history, which he can trace back 1,400 years to the inner circle of the prophet Muhammad, offers an enlightened perspective on the mystifying history of Pakistan. Mufti uses the stories of his ancestors, many of whom served as judges and jurists in Muslim sharia courts of South Asia for many centuries, to reveal the deepest roots - real and imagined - of Islamic civilization in Pakistan.

"Sal a combatir sea cual fuere tu condición. Contribuye a la causa de Allah con tus bienes y lucha" (sura 9:41). "Yihad" es una palabra árabe que significa simplemente lucha, pero se suele interpretar por Guerra Santa. Por desgracia, hoy, está en boca de todo el mundo en esta sangrienta acepción. Hace catorce siglos el islam nacía bañado en sangre y al día de hoy no parece que esto haya cambiado mucho.

Sahar Amer's evenhanded approach is anchored in sharp cultural insight and rich historical context. Addressing the significance of veiling in the religious, cultural, political, and social lives of Muslims, past and present, she examines the complex roles the practice has played in history, religion, conservative and progressive perspectives, politics and regionalism, society and economics, feminism, fashion, and art.

ISIS rocketed onto the world stage seemingly out of nowhere, beheading American hostages, bulldozing international borders, routing the American-trained Iraqi Army, and carving out a new state that rules eight million people and a territory larger than the United Kingdom. But who are they? Where did ISIS come from, and how did they rise to power in so little time? What is driving them - and how can they be stopped?

The riveting true story of America’s first homegrown Muslim terror attack, the 1977 Hanafi siege of Washington, DC.

Since the terrorist attacks of September 11th, there has been an overwhelming demand for information about Islam, and recent events - the war in Iraq, terrorist attacks both failed and successful, debates throughout Europe over Islamic dress, and many others - have raised new questions in the minds of policymakers and the general public. This newly updated edition of What Everyone Needs to Know about Islam is the best single source for clearly presented, objective information about these new developments, and for answers to questions about the origin and traditions of Islam.

When a murderous psychopath goes on a killing spree, law enforcement officials and the media never make his religion the central issue - unless he happens to be a Muslim. Then it sets off another frenzied wave of commentary about the inherent evils that lurk within the Muslim faith. From Fox News talking heads, who regularly smear Muslim leaders as secret terrorists, to Bill Maher, who has made Islam a routine target, it has become widely acceptable to libel a religion with a following of over 1.5 billion people.

Muslim men are stereotyped as either oversexed Casanovas willing to die for 72 virgins in heaven or controlling, big-bearded husbands ready to rampage at the hint of dishonor. The truth is, there are millions of Muslim men trying to figure out the complicated terrain of love, sex, and relationships just like any other American man. In Salaam, Love, Ayesha Mattu and Nura Maznavi provide a space for American Muslim men to speak openly about their romantic lives, offering frank, funny, and insightful glimpses into their hearts—and bedrooms.

Immergersi nell'universo mentale musulmano per rintracciare i percorsi attraverso i quali la consapevolezza politica dell'Islam è maturata fornisce di quella civiltà un'immagine polivalente, assai sfaccettata e di certo lontana dagli stereotipi. È quanto fa l'audiolibro, che illustra "dall'interno" le implicazioni della politica nell'ambito della dottrina dello stato e del potere, della teologia e della storia islamica, in riferimento ai paradigmi della teologia politica e dell'utopia retrospettiva.

Uno de los mayores monoteísmos de la historia, con una historia llena de esplendor militar, artístico y científico y un presente convulso y turbulento: el Islam contado desde su origen. El Islam nace en el S. VII en la zona de Arabia y en la actualidad es la segunda religión más practicada del mundo con más de 1.300 millones de musulmanes. La historia de esta religión desde su nacimiento hasta ahora, es un convulso relato que alterna épocas de esplendor y hegemonía mundial en todos los órdenes, con otras de oscurantismo y fundamentalismo.

"Vous avez le droit de me poser les questions que vous voulez, de me faire les remarques que vous voulez, il n'y a pas de tabou ici." Depuis cinq ans, plusieurs fois par semaine, j'ai cet échange avec les spectateurs de la pièce que j'ai écrite, Djihad, qui tourne à travers toute la France, la Belgique et la Suisse, le plus souvent à l'initiative des professeurs de français. Dans des collèges, des lycées, des prisons, des salles des fêtes, je prolonge la représentation par un dialogue avec le public.

Partant du constat que ce monde capitaliste et consumériste nous oblige à vivre une existence sans âme, sans esprit et sans humanité, Abdennour Bidar lance un vibrant appel au monde contemporain pour qu'une révolution soit possible. Non pas une révolution violente comme par le passé, mais une révolution tout à la fois spirituelle et politique.

Chi sono oggi i musulmani? In che cosa si differenzia la loro tradizione religiosa rispetto a quella cristiana? Nel ripercorrere la storia, i principi del credo, i precetti del culto, sino alle forme e alle correnti del pensiero religioso islamico, l'audiolibro fa emergere le contraddizioni di un universo tutt'altro che monolitico. Un universo assai diversificato a seconda delle aree geografiche, oggi diviso tra modernizzazione e radicalismo, ma destinato a giocare un ruolo di primaria importanza.

Il 90% circa dei musulmani si riconosce nella tradizione religiosa sunnita, che rappresenta l'"ortodossia" rispetto alla corrente minoritaria sciita, sorta dalle lotte civili per la successione dopo la morte del Profeta. Oltre a delineare un quadro storico e dottrinale del sunnismo, il volume fa chiarezza sulle correnti che agitano il mondo sunnita contemporaneo, da quelle riformiste e moderate a quelle conservatrici e radicali, a quelle più estremiste che hanno rivendicato il ritorno al califfato tradizionale.
