Download or read book The Theology of Unity written by Muhammad 'Abduh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-19 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1966, this was the first of Muhammad ‘Abduh’s works to be translated into English. Risālat al Tauhid represents the most popular of his discussion of Islamic thought and belief. ‘Abduh is still quoted and revered as the father of 20th Century Muslim thinking in the Arab world and his mind, here accessible, constituted both courageous and strenuous leadership in his day. All the concerns and claims of successive exponents of duty and meaning of the mosque in the modern world may be sensed in these pages. The world and Islam have moved on since ‘Abduh’s lifetime, but he remains a source for the historian of contemporary movements and a valuable index to the self-awareness of Arab Islam.

Book excerpt: Foreword - By Shaykh al-Saduq: All praise be to Allah, the One and Only, who does not have a partner; the Peerless, the Needless, who has no like; the First, the Ever-Existent, who has no limit; the Last and the Everlasting who has no end; the Existing, the Constant, who has no non-existence; the Eternal King, who does not decline; the Power who is not weakened; the All-Knowing from who nothing can be hidden; the Alive but not with life; the One who Exists, but who is not confined to place; the All-Hearing and the All-Seeing, who has no ears and eyes; the One who ordered with justice, punished with favour, and commanded with bounty, but not to trap people under His Command. There is no rejecter to His Judgement, no challenger to His Decision, and no subduer to His Will. And His Command, when He intendeth anything, is only that He sayeth unto it "Be," and then it is. Therefore, hallowed be He in whose Hand is the kingdom of all things, and unto His is the return and final arrival. And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah. The Master of the Universe, and I bear witness that Muhammad (SA) in His Servant and His Messenger, the Master of the Prophets (of Allah) and the Best of all His Creation. And I bear witness that `Ali ibn Abu Talib (AS), isthe Master of the Appointed Guardians, and Commander of the Pious and Leader of the People with Radiant Foreheads. And I bear witness that the Imams (AS) from his Progeny after him are the Proofs of Allah to the Day of Judgement; may the blessings and salutations of Allah be upon them all.Al-Shaykh Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn `Ali ibn Husayn ibn Musa ibn Babawayh al-Qummi, the jurist, a resident of Ray compiler of this book (may Allah, the Exalted, help him in obeying Him, and grant him success with his work, through His Contentment) said: I compiled this book because the opponents of our sect allege that we believe in anthropomorphism and determinism [jabr]. They made these claims on the basis of traditions [akhbar] they found in their books. Since they could not explain these traditions, and they could not understand their meaning, they distorted their original sense. In fact, they failed to compare the words of these traditions with the words of the Quran. As a result of their shortcomings, they distorted the beliefs of our sects among the ignorant. They confused people about our ways, and turned people away from the religion of Allah. They induced them to deny the Proofs of Allah. Therefore, I sought the favour of Allah, may His Remembrance beExalted, and sought His Help, through the compilation of The Book of Divine Unity which rejects anthropomorphism and determinism.

Download or read book Jesus Prophet of Islam written by Muhammad ʻAta ur-Rahim and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1977, Muhammad 'Ata ur-Rahim's classic text examines Jesus as a prophet teaching the Unity of God, and the historical collapse of Christianity as it abandoned his teaching. Now revised by coauthor Ahmad Thomson, the book sketches the dramatic picture of the original followers of Jesus who affirmed Unity, showing how "Christianity" became the fiction that replaced their truth. A wide-ranging study that covers the Gospel of Barnabas, the Gospel of Hermes, the shepherd, early and later Unitarian Christians, and Jesus in the gospels and in the Qur'an and hadith, Jesus: Prophet of Islam argues persuasively that the idea of Jesus as part of a trinity was a Greek pagan concept adopted by early Christian missionaries to gain converts among the Greeks, and did not become a widely accepted Christian doctrine until after the Council of Nicea in 325 A.D.
Download or read book Isa Ibn Maryam written by Peter R D and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of the Deity of Jesus Christ has been a topic of controversy among people of many religions and among few who profess Christianity as their religion. Historically, the first person to declare the deity of Jesus "as the Son of God" was the Apostle Peter. It is of great significance to note the reply given by Jesus when the Apostle Peter called him the Son of God. He replied, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven." (Matthew 16:17) The subject of the deity of Jesus is understood not by sense knowledge but by revelation, hence, the reason for the prayer at the beginning of this book.Because the Quran recommends to Muslims, and even the prophet (Muhammad), to take the bible as a book of reference, this book will seek to present biblical clarification to every verse of reference to Christ's divinity which will be taken from the Quran, so that perfect truth may be established in the hearts of the readers, the power in the Word of God being able to work in you to will, and to believe, and to do of His good works."And if thou (Muhammad) art in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto thee, then ask those who read the Scripture that was before thee" (Q10:94)"And before thee also the messengers We sent were but men, to whom we granted inspiration: if ye realize this not, ask those possess the Message. (Q16:43)Some years back, my situation was no different from that of people who lack revelation in the knowledge of Christ, and so, the divinity of Jesus Christ was incomprehensible to me. I grew up to know him as Isa the son of Maryam, a prophet like every other prophet having no special attributes than other prophets. I never knew that within same book which is commonly used to deny his deity are engraved traces of truth revealing a divine personality in Jesus. It is my utmost desire that revealing some of these pointers to Christ's divinity in the Quran, readers of Islamic orientation may be compelled to seek further truth in the Bible concerning this divine personality.

Download or read book God and Humans in Islamic Thought written by Maha Elkaisy-Friemuth and published by Taylor & Francis US. This book was released on 2011-01-25 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of The Iranian World Prize for the Book of the Year 2007 in the Philosophy and Mysticism category. This new and original text provides a timely re-examination of Islamic thought, presenting a stark contrast to the more usual conservative view. The explanation of the relationship between God and humans, as portrayed in Islam, is often influenced by the images of God and of human beings which theologians, philosophers and mystics have in mind. The early period of Islam reveals a diversity of interpretations of this relationship. Elkaisy-Friemuth discusses the view of three scholars from the tenth and eleventh century: Abd al-Jabbar, Ibn Sina and Al-Ghazali, which introduce three different approaches of looking at the relationship between God and Humans. God and Humans in Islamic Thought attempts to shed light on an important side of medieval rational thought in demonstrating its significance in forming the basis of an understanding of the nature of God, the nature of human beings and the construction of different bridges between them.

Download or read book An Introduction to Islamic Cosmological Doctrines written by Seyyed Hossein Nasr and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1993-07-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book to deal with classical Islamic cosmology as it was formulated by the Ikhwan al-S'afa al Biruni and Ibn Sina during the tenth and eleventh centuries. These figures influenced all the later centuries of Islamic history and in fact created the cosmological framework within which all later scientific activity in the Islamic world was carried out--the enduring image of the cosmos within which Muslims have lived during the past millennium. Nasr writes from within the Islamic tradition and demonstrates how, based on the teachings of the Quran and the Prophet, the figures treated in this work integrated elements drawn from various ancient schools of philosophy and the sciences. This book is unique in its treatment of classical Islamic cosmology as seen from within the Islamic world-view and provides a key for understanding of traditional Islamic thought.
