Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named by Time magazine as one of the 100 most important innovators of the century, Tariq Ramadan is a leading Muslim scholar, with a large following especially among young European and American Muslims. Now, in his first book written for a wide audience, he offers a marvelous biography of the Prophet Muhammad, one that highlights the spiritual and ethical teachings of one of the most influential figures in human history. In the Footsteps of the Prophet is a fresh and perceptive look at Muhammad, capturing a life that was often eventful, gripping, and highly charged. Ramadan provides both an intimate portrait of a man who was shy, kind, but determined, as well as a dramatic chronicle of a leader who launched a great religion and inspired a vast empire. More important, Ramadan presents the main events of the Prophet's life in a way that highlights his spiritual and ethical teachings. The book underscores the significance of the Prophet's example for some of today's most controversial issues, such as the treatment of the poor, the role of women, Islamic criminal punishments, war, racism, and relations with other religions. Selecting those facts and stories from which we can draw a profound and vivid spiritual picture, the author asks how can the Prophet's life remain -- or become again -- an example, a model, and an inspiration? And how can Muslims move from formalism -- a fixation on ritual -- toward a committed spiritual and social presence? In this thoughtful and engaging biography, Ramadan offers Muslims a new understanding of Muhammad's life and he introduces non-Muslims not just to the story of the Prophet, but to the spiritual and ethical riches of Islam.

Download or read book Remembrance of God in Islam written by Sami M Fereig and published by Fercan Corporation. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Holy Quran, God says, "Remember Me, (and) I will remember you." (Chapter 2, Verse 152). The remembrance of God will bring His Mercy and Contentment and cause believers to feel peace and tranquillity. Almighty God encourages us, in so many verses of the Holy Quran, to continuously remember Him and always be connected to Him. God will then reward us greatly and forgive us. Contentment will cause believers to have a righteous and satisfying life. Everyone hopes for God's care and to be close to Him. It was narrated from the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, that God says, "I am just as My servant thinks I am, and I am with him when he remembers Me ..." Remembrance is one of the easy and righteous deeds that bring the believer closer to his Lord, and he will be rewarded. Remembrance of God ranks very highly as a good deed, as mentioned in Chapter 29, Verse 45: "Recite that which has been revealed to you of the Book, and perform the prayer ... but the remembrance of God is surely greater. And God knows all that you do." The believer should remember God at all times, in health or sickness, wealth or poverty, when working, and when not working. Such remembrance will keep him away from bad deeds since God is always in his heart, and he is connected to Him through prayers of remembrance. The Holy Quran and the Prophetic Tradition have a large store of these remembrances for all times and daily events, with many remembrances dedicated to particular occasions. These will keep the believer close to God, and He will be contented with him. As the Prophet, peace be upon him, said, "If God is content with you, He will give you contentment."

Download or read book The Book Of Remembrances written by Imam Yahya ibn Sharaf an-Nawawi and published by Turath Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book Of Remembrances [Kitab al-Adhkar] – By Imam Yahya ibn Sharaf an-Nawawi Kitab al-Adhkar is the definitive compilation of words of remembrance and glorification of (dhikr), and supplicatory prayer to (du’a), the Lord of the Universe, as related from His final Emissary, the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless and exalt him). Dhikr and du’a lie at the very heart of the din, the relationship between creature and Creator. As part of the Sunna or Prophetic Way, they are a divinely appointed means of approaching Allah Most High for all our needs, and of making use of all the moments of daily life to strengthen our tawhid, the existential and cognitive Unity that is the hallmark of Muslim spirituality. Also covered are the vital principles of speaking only what is good and avoiding the sins of the tongue. The author, Muhy al-Din Yahya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi (631-676/123-1277) devoted his entire life to the pursuit of sacred knowledge. He is revered throughout the Sunni world as one of its greatest authorities. Among his most famous writings are the Arba’in, a collection of forty Hadiths; a commentary on the Sahih of Imam Muslim; and Kitab al-Adhkar. Designed as a reference guide and a source of inspiration, this volume presents a clear and elegant English translation of Imam al-Nawawis classic, together with the text of every single prayer and invocation, both in Arabic letters and in romanisation. Also included are all the authors statements about those Hadiths which he related personally from his own teachers, and his guidance on the correct spelling and meanings of rare words and names. Finally, al-Nawawi's comments on the sources of Hadiths are supplemented by further scholarly notes.
