Imam Abu Ja'far at-Tahawi
An indispensable translation of the classic work of the early Islamic scholar Abu Ja'far at-Tahawi (D.321AH), the book covers the requisite beliefs of Sunni Islam, presented in a methodical manner. The great scholar Hujjat-al-Islam Abu Ja'far al-Warräg al¬Tahawi al-Misri, may Allah (SWT) have mercy on him, said: This is a presentation of the beliefs of 'ahla-(a)s-Sunnah wa-(a)l-Jama'ah, according to the school of the jurists of this religion, Abu Hanifah an-Nu'man 'Ibn Thabit al-Kuifi, 'Abu Yusuf Ya'qub 'Ibn 'Ibrahim al-Ansari and Abu 'Abdullah Muhammad 'Ibn al-Hasan ash-Shaibani, may Allah (SWT) be pleased with them all, and what they believe regarding the fundamentals of the religion and their faith in the Lord of all the Worlds. This book is for Senior High students as well as adult readers. Imam Tahawi's al-'Aqidah, representative of the viewpoint of Ahl-al-Sunnah wa-al-Jama'a, has long been the most widely acclaimed, and indeed indispensable, reference work on Muslim beliefs, of which this is an edited English translation.
Imam Abu Ja'far Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Salamah bin Salmah bin 'Abd al Malik bin Salmah bin Sulaim bin Sulaiman bin Jawab Azdi, popularly known as Imam Tahawi, after his birth-place in Egypt, is among the most outstanding authorities of the Islamic world on Haddith and Fiqh (jurisprudence). He lived 239-321 A.H., an epoch when both the direct and indirect disciples of the four Imams - Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal - were teaching and practicing. This period was the zenith of Haddith and Fiqh studies, and Imam Tahawi studied with all the living authorities of the day. He began as a student of his maternal uncle, Isma'il bin Yahya Muzni, a leading disciple of Imam Shafi'i. Instinctively, however, Imam Tahawi felt drawn to the corpus of Imam Abu Hanifah's works. Indeed, he had seen his uncle and teacher turning to the works of Hanafi scholars to resolve thorny issues of Fiqh, drawing heavily on the writings of Imam Muhammad Ibn al-Hasan al-Shaybani and Imam Abu Yusuf, who had codified Hanafi Fiqh. This led Imam Tahawi to devote his whole attention to studying the Hanafi works and he eventually joined the Hanafi School.
Imam Tahawi stands out not only as a prominent follower of the Hanafi School but, in view of his vast erudition and remarkable powers of assimilation, as one of its leading scholars. His monumental scholarly works, such as Sharh Ma'ani al-Athar and Mushkil al-Athar, are encyclopedic in scope and have long been regarded as indispensable for training students of Fiqh. Al-'Aqidah, though small in size, is a basic text for all times, listing what a Muslim must know and believe and inwardly comprehend. There is consensus among the Companions, Successors and all the leading Islamic authorities such as Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Abu Yusuf, Imam Muhammad, Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal on the doctrines enumerated in this work. For these doctrines shared by Ahl-al-sunnah wa-al-Jama'ah owe their origin to the Holy Qur'an and consistent and confirmed Ahadith - the undisputed primary sources of Islam. Being a text on the Islamic doctrines, this work draws heavily on the arguments set forth in the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah. Likewise, the arguments advanced in refuting the views of sects that have deviated from the Sunnah, are also taken from the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah.
As regards the sects mentioned in this work, a study of Islamic history up to the time of Imam Tahawi would be quite helpful. References to sects such as Mu'tazilah, Jahmiyyah, Qadriyah, and Jabriyah are found in the work. Moreover, it contains allusions to the unorthodox and deviant views of the Shi'ah, Khawarij and such mystics as had departed from the right path. There is an explicit reference in the work to the nonsensical controversy on khalq-al-Qur'an in the times of Ma'mun and some other 'Abbasid Caliphs.
While the permanent relevance of the statements of belief in al-'Aqidah is obvious, the historical weight and point of certain of these statements can be properly appreciated only if the work is used as a text for study under the guidance of some learned Person able to elucidate its arguments fully, with reference to the intellectual and historical background of the sects refuted in the work. Such study helps one to better understand the Islamic doctrines and avoid the deviations of the past or the present.May Allah grant us a true understanding of faith and include us with those to whom Allah refers as 'those who believe fear Allah and do good deeds; and “he, who fears Allah, endures affliction, then Allah will not waste the reward of well-doers.”
A Hadith Guide for Personal and Social Conduct, is a gentle introduction that takes over 500 ahadith from the six authentic collections predominantly from Bukhari and Muslim and arranges them into an easily understood and accessible subject matter. Its unique style of inter-twining each subject matter with the appropriate verses of the Qur'an at the beginning of each chapter followed by carefully selected hadiths makes it fascinating to read, a truly scholarly work made accessible to the general reader.

Iqbal Ahmad Azami
An indispensible handbook presented in a self explanatory style, clear layout with a rich set of glossary, that gives detailed explanation of the creed held by the Ahl-as-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah, and goes on to provide a step-by-step guide to Purification, Prayer, Poor-dues, Fasting, Hajj etc. This book also addresses aspects which one may be shy to ask anyone such as biological and sexual behavior and practices etc. It deals with issues that should be known by everyone regarding the correct performance of these devotions, which Muslims have little knowledge of.
Additionally, intricate matters such as Taqwa, social behavior, one's duties to others, individual and collective dealings, sales and purchases are also addressed with both their correct and distorted forms highlighted. A section is also devoted to Tazkiyah and Ihsan, the sincere worship of Allah and attaining to the true spirit of faith.
The main feature of this book - is that it deals with issues that every Muslim faces daily and should be aware of in order to conduct their lifestyle in accordance to the Qur'an and Sunnah. As such it is an invaluable guide for all Muslims including those new to Islam and for young people making their entry into adulthood - an essential addition to every Muslim's personal library.
The book gives an explanation on Aqidah, Taharah, Salah, Zakah, Sawm and hajj. In addition, some basic aspects on what is prohibited and disliked, together with some instructions on elements of social conduct. Hanafi Fiqh is followed; however there are occasional references to other school of Fiqh.
Come to Success through Living Eman... This dynamic textbook focuses the reader's attention on the necessity to bridge the gap between an intellectual grasp and the practical application of Eman in one's daily life. By exploring the promises of success that Allah SWT has made to believers in His Glorious Qur'an and through the Sunnah of the Prophet, we can begin to see clearly the star of transformation leading to that true and ultimate success - in this life and in the Hereafter. The reader is shown the importance of formulating and purifying intention: performing a basic regimen of moral and spiritual practice… practice… practice; seeking knowledge as a lifelong devotion reflecting on meaning, purpose and benefit; practicing patience and perseverance (sabr) as an indispensable step on the path to success; and most importantly, praying to Allah SWT for His guidance, help and mercy. The requirements of Eman as supplications through worship, vicegerency and morality are looked d closely so that one can see worship as a reality broad as life itself and the virtual joy of living Eman! Vicegerency is shown to have as foundation self-governance, without which the individual is abased, the family is dysfunctional, and communities are corrupt. And Islamic morality is examined and shown to be a perfect code for the art and science of being truly human, a morality which reaches to the very nucleus of our beings and engenders the fulfilling of our Covenant with Allah SWT.

B. Aisha Lemu
Islamic 'Aqidah and Fiqh the textbook by Hajiyah B. Aisha Lemu in the 1980s, offers a new approach to the teaching of Islamic Studies, especially for younger students. It offers authentic information on Islamic 'Aqidah and Fiqh in simple English, combining the spirit of the teachings of Islam with their moral and social values. This work handles Islamic belief ('Aqidah) by covering the articles of faith in detail and presenting the Fiqh involving the Five Pillars of Islam. Issues of common concern, such as honest business and marriage and divorce are discussed in detail. Given that the original textbook was written primarily for West African audiences, it covered only the Maliki School of Thought. Moreover, the author has used her wealth of knowledge of other subjects in putting facts across to the students effectively. She has also employed rational arguments in helping the reader to understand the lessons thoroughly. IQRA' International Educational Foundation has this revised and expanded edition of very popular textbook. They thoroughly revised the series to cover all major schools of Fiqh, which increases the effectiveness of this book for use, especially in Muslim institutions of the West, where we have students of all madhahib studying, learning and growing up together. However, IQRA' has here fully revised the work to cover other schools of Sunni Fiqh and all 5 schools of Islamic jurisprudence. Sister Lemu has made a great contribution towards the effective dissemination of the knowledge of Islam, especially among the young ones. I recommend this textbook for use in schools. I also recommend it to the older reader who may wish to acquaint himself with the basic teachings of Islamic 'Aqidah and Fiqh.
