Book Description
This book is devoted to a study of the Jasad, whom the Prophet-King Solomon ('alayhisalam) saw sitting on his throne, and the first problem we encounter in this study is that neither the Qur'an nor the Prophet Muhammad's (sallalahu 'alayhi wasallam) Hadith explain who this Jasad truly is.This book has, therefore, been written with the specific purpose of inviting a scholarly response to this subject of the Jasad, from those who defend the salafi methodology, as well as those who defend the methods by which the Qur'an is studied in the Dar al-Ulum...Imran N. Hosein was born in Trinidad, West Indes. He studied under the guidance of the distinguished scholar of Islam, Maulana Dr. Fadlur Rahman Ansari, at the Aleemiyah Institute of Islamic Studies, Karachi, Pakistan. He is also a post-graduate of Philosophy from the Karachi University of West Indes, and a Post Graduate of International Relations from the University of the West Indes, Trinidad and the Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva, Switzerland.

Constantinople In The Qur'an

Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
In consequence of a mysterious decision taken by Mustafa Kamal's secular Republic of Turkey to not only change the city's name, but to also take steps that eventually ensured that the name, Constantinople, would no longer be used, this writer had to retrieve the name "Constantinople" from the museums of history in order for this book to be written. Why did the secular Turkish leader change the name of the city? Why did the name "Constantinople" have to suffer that mysterious fate? This book brings clarity to that subject.This writer is convinced that the mysterious disappearance of the name "Constantinople" from the modern-day vocabulary and discourse is directly linked to the status and role of the city in both Islamic and Christian eschatology.

The Caliphate, the Hejaz and the Saudi-Wahhabi Nation-State

Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
This is a third publication in the Ansari Memorial Series, published in honor of my teacher and Shaikh of blessed memory, Maulana Dr. Muhammad Fadlur Rahman Ansari (1914 - 1974). The previous two publications were entitled: 'The Religion of Abraham and the State of Israel - A View from the Qur'an', and 'The Importance of the Prohibition of Riba in Islam'. Much of the research work for this book was done during the years 1975-1979 at the United Nations Library in the Palais des Nations, Geneva, while I was a doctoral student in International Relations at the Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva. We are experiencing, at the time of writing a rapidly deteriorating situation in today's Muslim World with bloody conflicts inflicting unimaginable suffering on innocent Muslims in Bosnia, Kashmir, Algeria, Palestine, Chechnya etc. Yesterday it was fifty thousand Muslim women raped in Bosnia, and today's horror stories are about a son who was forced to bite off his Muslim father's testicles in Bosnia, and the innocent blind Muslim Shaikh, Omar Abdul Rahman, who was condemned to life imprisonment in USA (because he posed too great a threat to the pro-west secular regime which rules Egypt), and who is sexually humiliated by prison guards whenever he has a visitor at prison. I am now convinced that the time has at last come for this work to reach the Muslim public who may now be sufficiently shaken up to look seriously for the causes of our impotence. They may, as a consequence, take this work seriously and brush off the expected protests from establishment scholars, and the governments that they support, around the Muslim world!

Jerusalem in the Qur'an
Author: Imran Hosein
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781989450079
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
Jerusalem in the Qur'an made its debut at a crucial time when the morale of the Muslims was not only at its lowest... but is continually sinking... The blatant incessant Israeli incursions in the Holy Land go unabated, and Muslims are echoing the very words that their fellow brethren called out unto their Lord when they were being persecuted at the hands of the kuffar of Makkah: "When will the help of Allah come?''Shaikh Imran's insight into the events that are unfolding in the world today is a source of inspiration for Muslims for he convincingly argues from his scholarly interpretations of the Divine Writ (i.e., the Holy Qur'an) and the Ahadith of the Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu 'alaihi wa sallam) that the help of Allah (subhanahu wa ta'alah) is at hand, that the Holy Land will be liberated, and that Islam will re-emerge as the 'Ruling State' in the world. The reader will be enthralled by the author's grasp on world politics. Jerusalem in the Qur'an comes as a ray of sunshine for Muslims and is an eye-opener for the so-called 'People of the Book'. Though Jerusalem in the Qur'an is a meticulously written thesis combining religious and historical documents with recent political events and penetrating interpretations from the Qur'an and Hadith, it runs like a story. Once you begin reading it, it is hard to stop ... It is a reference that one needs to keep and re-read whenever the subject is to be researched. The book gives a detailed beautifully written exposition of these episodes with brilliant interpretations from the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah. No one would fail to appreciate his penetrative thought and his spiritual depth.

The Qur'ān and the Moon
Author: Imran HOSEIN
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
This book on the topic of 'The Qur'ān and the Moon-- Methodology for Monthly Recitation of the Qur'ān', is a companion volume to my previous book entitled 'Methodology for Study of the Qur'ān'; but which will now be renamed: 'The Qur'ān and the Stars--Methodology for Study of the Qur'ān'. I was in London on the evening of 29th day of Shabān 1440(H) when it became known that the moon of Ramadān was not seen anywhere in UK, and yet schoolboys in the Muslim community declared that Ramadān had commenced in UK. The 'sheep' and the 'cattle' then followed them blindly! The same mistake was repeated in 1441(H) when they again commenced fasting one day early on the basis of a plea that they had arrived at the 30th day of Shabān. The 'sheep' and the 'cattle' again followed them blindly! They acted on the basis of an announcement that the moon was sighted in Dajjāl's kingdom of Saudi Arabia, or that the month had commenced in Saudi Arabia, and in doing so they made both a silly as well as a dangerous mistake in departing from the system of time ordained by Allah Most High. This book explains that mistake. Those who took that wrong decision, as well as those who accepted and followed that decision, will be questioned on Judgement Day for what they did. Since they started Ramadān (or Shabān before Ramadān) on the wrong day, the implication is that they lost the greatest night of the whole year--namely Lailatul Qadr; and even more damage was done when they consequently lost the capacity to connect from lunar time to cosmic time and thence to Absolute time. Only lunar time can take us to a timeless world; we can climb even up a mountain to sit in a cave, in an effort to travel to other worlds of space and time, -- but if we do not live in lunar time we will travel to nowhere! They are probably unaware that only lunar time can take us to a timeless world, and that whoever has never tasted timelessness can eventually become a prisoner of the Dunyah. The Imām of Purley Masjid in Croydon, London, made a tearful request that I address the subject of moon-sighting for the commencement of the lunar month in Islam so that Muslims might be better-guided on that subject. This book emerged in consequence of my attempt to respond to that request, and I am confident that our explanation of the subject of Dajjāl and the System of Time in Islam would now deter such Muslims who have the capacity to 'think', from ever again following those who, even though they are in London, recklessly rush to embrace a Saudi or a Moroccan moon. I am grateful for the numerous offers of help I received from so many to meet the cost of printing this book in several languages, so that, in addition to being sold on my online bookstore, www.imranhosein.com, large numbers of copies could be distributed free of charge in UK and elsewhere. May Allah Most Kind, bless them all. Amīn! Those who read this book and would like to participate in the effort to print large numbers of copies for free distribution around the world, should kindly contact me by email. ( [email protected] ). If you would also like me to come in person to teach this subject to your community, do please send me an email and, if Allah so Wills, I will come to you.

An Islamic View of Gog and Magog in the Modern World: Gog and Magog in the Modern World
Author: Imran Hosein
Publisher: Iron Heart Publishing
ISBN: 9781989450130
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
I began my study of Gog and Magog more than fifteen years ago in the early 90's while resident in New York. My subsequent public lecture on the subject never failed to provoke keen interest from my Muslim audiences in several parts of the world. The evidence and arguments presented in the chapter on Gog and Magog in my book 'Jerusalem in the Qur'an', succeeded in convincing many who read the book that we now live in a world dominated by Gog and Magog. There were easily convinced that the 'town' mentioned in the Qur'an in Surah Al-Anbiyah (21:95-96) was Jerusalem and hence, that Gog and Magog (and Dajjal) explained the ominously unfolding was on Islam with slaughter and destruction of Muslims in so many parts of the world. As a consequence, such readers also understood Israel's mysterious imperial agenda, and many have been making efforts to extricate themselves and their families from the embrace of Gog and Magog - an embrace that will take 999 out of every 1000 of mankind into the hellfire. Despite my best efforts, however, I failed miserable, again and again, to convince my learned peers, the scholars of Islam. I earnestly hope and pray that this book mught make a difference InshaAllah.
