Download or read book Encyclopaedia of Islam written by Ian Richard Netton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 872 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Islamic Civilization and Religion provides scholarly coverage of the religion, culture and history of the Islamic world, at a time when that world is undergoing considerable change and is a focus of international study and debate. The non-Muslim world's perceptions of Islam have often tended to be dominated by unrepresentative radical extremist movements and media interpretations of events involving such movements, to the extent that many people are unaware of the depth and variety of Islamic thought. At the same time, many who have had a formal training in Islamic studies have tended to concentrate on the traditional, to the exclusion of the contemporary. The Encyclopedia of Islamic Civilization and Religion covers the full range of Islamic thought, in historical depth, but it also provides substantial coverage of contemporary trends across the Muslim world. With well over a thousand entries on Islamic theology, history, arts, science, law and institutions, and coverage of Islam in individual countries and cities around the world, the Encyclopedia of Islamic Civilization and Religion provides an extremely rich resource for students and researchers in religious studies and Middle Eastern studies. Entries are cross-referenced and bibliographies are provided. There is a full index. Routledge published The Qura'n: An Encyclopedia in 2005, an excellent companion to the Encyclopedia of Islamic Civilization and Religion.
Download or read book International encyclopaedia of Islam written by A. H. Qasmi and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2006 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam is a perfect faith and way of life. It is a complete system in itself, for the life in this world and the next world. For knowing Islam, it is essential to study its philosophy, ideology and principles and for that, one has to approach original sources, viz. Holy Quran and Tradition. However, it is not possible for every one to refer to these sources, which are originally in Arabic. Of course, there are commentaries and explanatory books in Persian, Urdu as well as in English and other western languages. Still, it remains difficult to take benefit of these voluminous secondary sources. Hence, a dire need for a comprehensive and exhaustive work on Islam was felt. This exclusive multi-volume is aimed at filling that room. The International Encyclopaedia of Islam consists of nine volumes and successfully covers all important aspects of Islam, as a religion and faith. These volumes, namely are: 1. Islamic Philosophy, 2. Faith in Islam, 3. Principles of Islam, 4. Islamic Manners, 5. Islam and Social Justice, 6. Judicial System in Islam, 7. Human Rights in Islam, 8. Islam and Education, 9. Science and Islam. These volumes virtually cover the whole Islam in a nutshell, which makes them reader-friendly. This multi-volume is essential for all scholars, researchers, students and general readers, the world over.

The set also includes 16 pages of color images per volume that serve to illustrate the diverse expressions of this important religious tradition.
