First Principles of Islamic Economics collects together the major writings on Islamic economics by Sayyid Abul A'la Mawdudi (1903-79), one of the leading Muslim intellectuals of the twentieth century. Written between the 1930s and the 1960s, Mawdudi laid down the foundations of modern Islamic economic philosophy. Drawing upon the teachings of the Qur'an and sunnah, Mawdudi spelled out major elements of a new paradigm for economic analysis and policy, wherein economic pursuits take place in the context of moral values and directed towards achievement of personal and social objectives. The uniqueness of this approach lies in making efficiency and equity inseparable and interdependent. In an Islamic framework, creation and distribution of wealth become instrumental in promoting individual and social well being, enabling the economic discipline to open up pathways to economic development, social justice and human welfare.

This is a two-volume set of books in Spanish entitled Islamic Jurisprudence. The first volume covers worship, discussing the legitimate rites of worship that Allah has ordained for us. The second volume covers topics related to human transactions and interactions.
Islamic Jurisprudence (Fiqh) is the study of the different opinions and rulings deduced from the original Islamic sources—the Qur'an and Sunnah—so that Muslims can put Islamic teachings into practice in all aspects of their lives.

This fiqh includes the rulings about rites of worship, human interactions, trade, contracts and international policies. It includes as well the administrative laws of justice, war and peace. This work aims to convey in simple terms, the basic precepts that every Muslim should know and apply in their daily lives.

The issue of religion in business and personal financial matters may seem incongruous in the context of the twenty-first century. However, Islam as a religion has always paid attention to material issues. By its very definition of 'submission,' Islam imbues every aspect of a Muslim's life, and that includes money management. Today, personal and business financial issues affect nearly every one of the billion or so Muslims across the globe in one way or another.

Not surprisingly, the twenty-first century has already witnessed the phenomenal rise of Islamic finance to a multi-billion dollar industry.
This book highlights issues in Islam that are important and relevant to Muslims when they engage in tasks related to personal finances, business administration, investment, and work. Readers will find an overview of relevant excerpts from the Quran and the authentic Sunnah. Non-Muslims as well can gain valuable insights from this book that should prove useful in today's multicultural business landscapes.

New Directions in Islamic Education explores the relationship between pedagogy and the formation of religious identities within Islamic education settings that are based in minority and majority Muslim contexts. Based on empirical research, the book engages critically with the philosophical, theological and cultural dynamics that inform Muslim educational thought and practice. The book offers an integrated model of Islamic education that identifies the heart of the Islamic educational imagination as tarbiyah, a transformative process of becoming. Overall, this book seeks to ground the theory and practice of Islamic education within the experience of the educator and the learner, and it synthesises the spiritual foundations of Islam with the tradition of critical reflection within the classical Muslim educational heritage. This ground breaking and wide-ranging work should be of interest not only to Muslim educators and education specialists, but also to social scientists, theologians and policy makers.

A passionate and committed account of Kashmir's struggle for freedom over the last 65 years, and a close-up and personal study of its leading figure, Syed Ali Geelani, which gets behind the stereotype of Indian Muslims as terrorists. An ignored but serious global flashpoint, Kashmir is at the root of tensions between India and Pakistan, the two nuclear states of South Asia, who have fought three wars over it. The heart of the problem is the right of self-determination of Kashmir's fifteen million people, a right denied to them since 1947.
Since 1989, 90,000 people have been killed, over 100,000 have been injured, and over 10,000 are missing, and mass graves continue to be unearthed. Paradise on Fire is the story of the struggle for national liberation of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, spearheaded by Syed Ali Shah Geelani. This political biography of Kashmir's leading freedom fighter reveals the true horror of the Kashmir dispute, the dynamics of this historical struggle for self-determination, and Geelani's huge contribution in leading this search for liberation.
