Ibn Battuta set off to make Hajj and became the traveler of his age during the fourteenth century in a time before Columbus, when many believed the world was flat.
Like Marco Polo, Ibn Battuta left behind an incredible account of his journey from Morocco to China, from the steppes of Russia to the shores of Tanzania, some seventy-five thousand miles in all.
The author has retold Ibn Battuta's story in word and pictures, adding the element of ancient Arab maps - maps as colorful and evocative as a Persian miniature, as intricate and mysterious as a tiled Moroccan wall.
Into this arabesque of pictures and maps is woven the story not just of a traveler in a world long gone but of a man on his journey through life. A beauty of a book!

This unique book is the first volume in IQRA's series entitled “Stories of the Sahabah” as adapted by Mrs. Noura Durkee.
This volume contains the biographies of twenty-one intimate Sahabah who were promised their place in Paradise, as recorded in various traditions (ahadith).
This series presents the lives of the Sahabah for younger generations of Muslims through rich and engaging stories. A more famous Haddith on this subject promises Paradise to ten Sahabah, popularly known as al-'Ashrah al-Mubasharin in Paradise.
There are other traditions which mention the name of other Sahabah and Sahabiyat who were promised Paradise in their life time or soon after their death.
We believe that all the Sahabah of the prophet Mohammad will enter Paradise; in this volume, we have included only those chosen ones who heard the good news from the Prophet himself.
“The First Ones” is the second volume in our series, Stories of the Sahabah, adapted by the popular author Noura Durkee who offers 5 books detailing the lives of the Sahabah of the Prophet(s).
This volume contains the biographies of prominent Sahabah (companions) of the Prophet as recorded in various traditions (ahadith). Many of them followed Rasulullah to Madinah during the hijrah.
These heart-warming biographies of those blessed companions of Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him and his family!), who were of the first to accept Islam and stood by his side in the earliest years, include 'Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr, Zaid ibn Haritha, Asma bint Abi Bakr, al-Arqam and many others.
This volume presents the essence of their devotion to Islam and their Prophet through rich and engaging anecdotes based on actual events.

The greedy and power-hungry vice-regent Abrahah intends to divert the world's pilgrims from the Ka'ba, the House of Allah, in Makka, to the cathedral his slaves built. When the cathedral's magnificent doors are finally opened, the throngs of people that Abrahah boasted about do not arrive. In a rage, he vows to destroy the Ka'ba, but Allah, the Causer of all causes, has other plans. True happenings, stranger than fiction, demonstrate that if Allah says, "Be!" it surely is to be.

We often think that people from a thousand years ago were living in the Dark Ages. But from the 7th century onward in Muslim civilization there were amazing advances and inventions that still influence our everyday lives. People living in the Muslim world saw what the Egyptians, Chinese, Indians, Greek, and Romans had discovered and spent the next one thousand years adding new developments and ideas. Inventors created marvels like the elephant water clock, explorers drew detailed maps of the world, women made scientific breakthroughs and founded universities, architects built huge domes larger than anywhere else on earth, astronomers mapped the stars and so much more! This book takes the wining formula of facts, photos, and fun, and applies it to this companion book to the 1001 Inventions exhibit from the Foundation for Science, Technology, and Civilization. Each page is packed with information on this little-known history, but also shows how it still applies to our world today.
