The Five Maxims, The Four Principles, Ten Things which Breach Islam, The Four Principles Differentiating the Muslim from the Polytheist and Succinct Counsel.

This is an important collection of writings by Shaykh Muhammad ibn `Abdu’l- Wahhab all dealing with essential components of Muslim belief and identity. The book is an invaluable addition to the Muslim bookshelf.

The first is the outstanding work, Masa’il al-Jahiliyyah in which the author lists 128 characteristics, current amongst the people of the Time of Ignorance, which were opposed by the Messenger of Allah , all of them essential learning for any Muslim. The goal is to purge contemporary Muslim society from any such traits that may linger on and to direct them back to the guidance of the

Messenger of Allah in its pristine purity. The treatise is written in simple, accessible language and is marked by a heavy reliance on Qur’anic verses which lends it to easy reading. Relevant as it was then, it remains relevant today and its importance cannot be underestimated. The Arabic text of this work has also been included.

The second, Nawaqid al-Islam is an article listing ten things which breach a person’s profession of Islam, incorporated here so that the Muslim can do his utmost to avoid them.

The third is the monograph, al-Qawa`id al-Khams in which the author explains five fundamental components of the Messenger’s call.

The fourth is the famous treatise, al-Qawa`id al-Arba` in which the author expounds on the reality of Tawhid and shirk through explaining four principles which will save a person from the trap of polytheism in all of its many forms. The author wrote various versions of this treatise in his life and three such versions have been incorporated here.

The last is a counsel or advice given by the author directed to all Muslims.

Abū Zakariyyā Muḥyi'd-dīn Yaḥyā ibn Sharaf an-Nawawī (631 AH/1233 CE - 676 AH/1277 CE) was an exemplary scholar of the hadith, Ash'arī kalām and the Shāfi'ī madhhab, noted for his commentary on Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, his collection of Forty Hadith, the Riyāḍ aṣ-Ṣāliḥīn, the Adhkār, which is a collection of dhikr and du'ā from the Qur'ān and the hadith, and a number of other significant works.

The Garden of the Gnostics (Bustān al-'Ārifīn) is Imam an-Nawawī's work on taṣawwuf, drawing as is his wont on the Qur'ān, with careful choice of hadith, and the sayings of the first generations (salaf) and eminent later people.

Aisha Bewley is the translator of a large number of classical works of Islam and Sufism, often in collaboration with Abdalhaqq Bewley, notably The Noble Qur'an - a New Rendering of Its Meanings in English; Muhammad, Messenger of Allah - the translation of Qāḍī 'Iyāḍ's ash-Shifā'; the Muwaṭṭa' of Imam Mālik ibn Anas; and Imam an-Nawawī's Riyāḍ aṣ-Ṣāliḥīn.

The Gardens of Sabais a beautifully illustrated and creatively written story of the rise and fall of the people of Saba, in ancient Yemen. It reminds us that we should always be thankful to Allah for His blessings and never become arrogant and proud over our success.

St. Paul hijacked some of the preaching of Jesus, distorted it with pagan doctrine and hijacked by Constantine and Romanize with the Roman sun-god of the cult of Sollvinctus to form the basic doctrine of modern Christianity. This is the cause of the differences between the conception of God in Judaism, Islam and Christianity.

The question of whether hogs should be used for food involves a mix of nutritional, safety, and, in some cases, religious or dietary, considerations. While pork is the second most commonly consumed meat worldwide, with domesticated hogs being a major source of bacon and ham, there are arguments against it. For instance, the book "The Hog: Should It Be Used for Food?" by C. Leonard Vories discusses arguments against eating pork based on biblical and medical reasons.
