Download or read book Bridges Translation of the Ten Qira at of the Noble Qur an written by Fadel Soliman and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-31 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges' translation aims to help non-Arabic readers in pondering the Qur'an (tadabbor). The translators focused not only on translating what God meant to say, but also on translating how He spoke. There are three main new features in this translation that make it unique: 1. It is the first translation which includes the ten Qira'at (modes of recitation). The main text is written in accordance with the Qira'a of Asem, narrated by Hafs. Variations from that are presented in footnotes denoted by 'Q'. The translation presents around 30% of the variations of the Qira'at--those which affect the meaning. 2. It is the first translation that takes into consideration the Qur'anic phenomenon of grammatical shifts, whether in verb tenses, numbers, or pronouns. These are a great source of pondering for the reader. 3. To denote whether a pronoun like 'you' or an imperative verb like 'say' is plural, dual, or singular, the translators did not impose their understanding on the reader by adding text between brackets like (O Prophet) to denote singular form, or (O mankind) to denote plural form. Rather, this distinction was achieved by adding a superscript after pronouns and imperative verbs. For example: youpl is used for a plural pronoun, yousg for a singular pronoun, and youdl for a dual pronoun.
Download or read book Quran Hadith and Islam written by Dr. Rashad Khalifa and published by Dr. Rashad Khalifa Ph.D.. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After more than 12 years of computerized research of Quran, PHYSICAL EVIDENCE was discovered proving that Quran is indeed the infallible word of God. This discovery became very popular among the Muslim masses throughout the world, and summaries of the work were printed and distributed by the millions. My personal popularity soared along with this most exciting, and most humbling, discovery. The continued research then unveiled a startling fact; that the extremely popular "Hadith & Sunna" have nothing to do with the prophet Muhammad, and that adherence thereto represents flagrant disobedience of God and His final prophet (Quran 6:112 & 25:31). This finding contradicts the beliefs of Muslim masses everywhere. Consequently, my personal popularity, and even the popularity of the Quran's miracle, plunged to the point of endangering my life and reputation. As it turned out, telling the Muslims that "Hadith & Sunna" are Satanic inventions is the same as telling the Christians that Jesus is not the son of God. Since the recognition of "Hadith & Sunna" as Satanic innovations is supported by PHYSICAL EVIDENCE, all freethinking people will accept the findings reported in this book. For such people, the results include a totally new sense of salvation, and full awareness that the Muslim masses have fallen victim to Satan's schemes.

Download or read book Islam written by Karen Armstrong and published by Modern Library. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No religion in the modern world is as feared and misunderstood as Islam. It haunts the popular Western imagination as an extreme faith that promotes authoritarian government, female oppression, civil war, and terrorism. Karen Armstrong's short history offers a vital corrective to this narrow view. The distillation of years of thinking and writing about Islam, it demonstrates that the world's fastest-growing faith is a much richer and more complex phenomenon than its modern fundamentalist strain might suggest. Islam: A Short History begins with the flight of Muhammad and his family from Medina in the seventh century and the subsequent founding of the first mosques. It recounts the origins of the split between Shii and Sunni Muslims, and the emergence of Sufi mysticism; the spread of Islam throughout North Africa, the Levant, and Asia; the shattering effect on the Muslim world of the Crusades; the flowering of imperial Islam in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries into the world's greatest and most sophisticated power; and the origins and impact of revolutionary Islam. It concludes with an assessment of Islam today and its challenges. With this brilliant book, Karen Armstrong issues a forceful challenge to those who hold the view that the West and Islam are civilizations set on a collision course. It is also a model of authority, elegance, and economy.

Download or read book Understanding Islam written by Farhan Iqbal and published by Islam International Publications Ltd. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Jihad in Islam is misunderstood by a large number of people, who believe that the violent and oppressive actions of extremists as portrayed by some media is a representation of the teachings of Islam. In addition, numerous articles and books have been written in popular press that, through ignorance or prejudice, misconstrue verses of the Holy Quran and events from the life of the Holy Prophet(sa) of Islam to label such brutal actions, oppression and persecution as wholly Islamic. One such book came out in 2016 that presented the same age-old arguments against Islam and its concept of Jihad. This book Understanding Islam is a response to all such allegations against Jihad and presents the pristine beauty of Islam from the teachings of Holy Quran, the life of the Holy Prophet(sa) of Islam and the discourses of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad(as) of Qadian. It has been written jointly by members of the Review of Religions Research Canada, a group that inspires the youth towards studying the sciences of the Holy Quran.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam is a religion of peace and the most misunderstood.

Download or read book Zionism s War on Judaism Christianity and Islam written by Mohamed Moussa Ghounem and published by MuslimSchool.com. This book was released on 2024-11-07 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delve into the profound complexities of faith, identity, and geopolitical reality in "Zionism’s War on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam," a groundbreaking exploration by Moussa Mohamed Ghounem. This book offers a critical examination of how Zionism has not only reshaped Jewish identity but has also posed significant challenges to Christianity and Islam, raising urgent questions about the intersection of religion and politics in the modern world. From the very outset, the book provides an insightful introduction into the historical roots of Zionism, exploring the atheistic fears and motivations that propelled its founders—Theodor Herzl, Chaim Weizmann, and David Ben-Gurion—who sought a sovereign Jewish state as a sanctuary from pervasive anti-Semitism. As the narrative unfolds, Ghounem meticulously charts how these secular leaders diverged from traditional religious tenets, arguing that the political ambitions of Zionism often clash with the core values of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In Chapter 1, Ghounem outlines the significant theological shifts that have occurred as millions of Christians have converted to what he terms "Israelism." The author draws compelling connections between these conversions and the funding of anti-Christian agendas, highlighting a troubling alliance that endangers the foundational beliefs of both Christianity and Islam. By documenting the extensive support these movements have garnered within the political arena, he reveals how the intertwined fates of these religions and political ideologies shape contemporary conflicts in the Middle East. Chapter 2 digs deep into the heart of the matter, discussing how Zionism fundamentally contradicts the Jewish Bible’s teachings on love, compassion, and the divine mandate for justice. Ghounem passionately argues that the Bible's vision of a "Light to the Nations" has been overshadowed by Zionist nationalism, which emphasizes self-preservation at the expense of others. The book challenges readers to reconsider the ethical implications of modern statehood against a backdrop of historical injustices perpetrated in the name of Zionism. In the subsequent chapters, the author shifts focus to the implications of Christian Zionism, illustrating how contemporary movements exploit biblical prophecies to promote a narrative that prioritizes Israel's political goals over Christian values of peace and compassion. The rise of influential leaders like John Hagee and organizations such as Christians United for Israel is scrutinized for their roles in perpetuating this ideology, often at the cost of ethical and moral integrity. Ghounem’s analysis culminates in a powerful conclusion that calls for a reevaluation of faith and identity in a world fraught with division and conflict. He implores readers to seek unity across faiths, advocating for a collective embrace of the true spirit of their respective traditions—one that transcends political boundaries and promotes justice, compassion, and understanding. This book serves not only as an exposé of the conflicts between Zionism and the core tenets of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam but also as a clarion call for interfaith dialogue and reconciliation. "Zionism’s War on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam" is essential reading for anyone seeking to comprehend the intricate tapestry of religious beliefs and political realities that define our world today. Whether you are a scholar, a practitioner of faith, or a concerned global citizen, Ghounem's compelling narrative will inspire you to reflect deeply on the role of religion in shaping human destiny. Join the conversation and uncover the truths that challenge our understanding of faith, power, and humanity.
Download or read book The Lost Art of Scripture written by Karen Armstrong and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 667 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book that shines fresh light on the world's major religions to help us build bridges between faiths and rediscover a creative and spiritual engagement with holy texts—from the New York Times bestselling author of A History of God “[An] unusual, often dazzling, blend of theology, history, and neuroscience” —The New Yorker The significance of scripture may not be immediately obvious in our secular world, but its misunderstanding is perhaps the root cause of many of today's controversies. The sacred texts have been co-opted by fundamentalists, who insist that they must be taken literally, and by others who interpret scripture to bolster their own prejudices. These texts are seen to prescribe ethical norms and codes of behavior that are divinely ordained: they are believed to contain eternal truths. But as Karen Armstrong shows in this chronicle of the development and significance of major religions, such a narrow, peculiar reading of scripture is a relatively recent, modern phenomenon. For most of their history, the world's religious traditions have regarded these texts as tools that enable the individual to connect with the divine, to experience a different level of consciousness, and to help them engage with the world in more meaningful and compassionate ways.
