The Most Beautiful Minbar
£4.50For the purpose of worship, the Prophet admonished all Muslims to travel to only three mosques: the Haram in Holy Makkah, the Prophet’s
Mosque in Madinah, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Bayt al-Mugaddas. This book relates the true and fascinating story of the creation, installation, destruction, and eventual rebirth of the magnificent pulpit (minbar) of the Al-Aqsa Mosque from which each week the khatib (sermon reciter) would deliver his address. Salah al-Din, the great leader of the counter-crusade, had to wait twenty years before he could enter Jerusalem in 1187 CE and install the minbar of Nur al-Din Zangi in the Al-Aqsa Mosque. And eight hundred years later, Dar al-Islam had to wait almost forty years for a new minbar to replace the original one destroyed by vandalism.
Although East Jerusalem has suffered from a brutal occupation since June 1967 CE, the patient Palestinians have not lost hope that their Al-Aqsa Mosque may soon be liberated and that Muslims the world over will be able to fulfill the Prophet’s admonishment to visit it. And then, insha Allah, Muslims from every corner of Dar al-Islam will once again benefit from the Friday and `Eid sermons delivered from the most beautiful minbar.

The Well Traveled Quran( A Celebration of the Endurance of Kalam Allah)
£4.49The Noble Qur’an is Kalam Allah (speech of Allah), the eternal message, preserved forever, for all of humanity. Allah’s Word was revealed, for the last time, to the final Messenger, Prophet Muhammad (S).Within two centuries of the founding of the Islamic state, Muslims had spread the message of Din al-Haq (religion of truth) east to the borders of China, and west to Spain and the shores of the Atlantic. The secret of Chinese paper making, first passed on to the Muslims in Baghdad, created an ‘information explosion’ that reverberated throughout Dar al-Islam (land of Islam). Inexpensive paper permitted the dissemination of Kalam Allah and, eventually, the transcription of hundreds of thousands of ahadith. The Islamic world soon developed a creative and literate culture of high civilization.This story chronicles the nine hundred year long odyssey of a beautiful handwritten Qur’an produced in Cordoba in the 11th century. The plight of the Moriscos (Arabic Al-Muriskiyyun), the last Muslims of Al-Andalus, becomes an integral part of the amazing story of the well-traveled Quran.
