PERISHED NATIONS

Many societies that rebelled against the will of Allah or regarded His messengers as enemies were wiped off the face of the earth completely... All of them were destroyed-some by a volcanic eruption, some by a disastrous flood, and some by a sand storm...

Perished Nations examines these penalties as revealed in the verses of the Quran and in light of archaeological discoveries.

FOR MEN OF UNDERSTANDING

One of the purposes why the Qur'an was revealed is to summon people to think about creation and its works. When a person examines his own body or any other living thing in nature, the world or the whole universe, in it he sees a great design, art, plan and intelligence. All this is evidence proving Allah's being, unit, and eternal power.

For Men of Understanding was written to make the reader see and realise some of the evidence of creation in nature. Many living miracles are revealed in the book with hundreds of pictures and brief explanations.

ISLAM AND KARMA

Karma is the dogma on which most of the Eastern religions like Hinduism or Buddhism are founded. It assumes that man reincarnates endlessly in this world and his present life reflects the former one.
Although some might believe that Karma motivates people for good deeds, it is in fact a myth that deceives men by taking them away from the fact of afterlife. Humans come to this world for only once, to be tested in their faith and obedience to God. After death, there is no other worldly life; there is no "reincarnation". Karma, which argues otherwise, is a faith that is contrary to Islam and also human reason.

ISLAM AND BUDDHISM

When we look at Buddhism in the light of the verses of the Qur'an, we see that this belief is built on twisted teachings, contains peculiar acts of worship incompatible with human reason and logic, and turns man towards idolatry. This book reveals all the deviant aspects of this superstitious religion.

ALLAH IS KNOWN THROUGH REASON

The plan, design, and delicate balance existing in our bodies and reaching into even the remotest corners of the incredibly vast universe must surely have a superior Creator. Man is unable to see his Creator yet he can nevertheless grasp His existence, strength, and wisdom by means of his intellect. This book is a summons to think. A summons to ponder over the universe and living beings and see how they have been created flawlessly.

MAGNIFICANCE EVERYWHERE

A person who examines any corner of the universe-from the giant galaxies in space to the living beings in nature and from his own body to invisible cells-sees a flawless plan incorporating both order and design. Everywhere in the universe there prevails an admirable glory. This glory is the superior and matchless artistry of Allah, Who creates everything without any preceding example, Who is the source of every beauty, and Who is the Owner of all beings.

DEEP THINKING

Have you ever thought that you were non-existent before you were born and suddenly appeared on Earth? Have you ever thought that the peel of a banana, melon, watermelon or an orange each serve as a quality package preserving the fruit's odour and taste?

Man is a being to which Allah has granted the faculty of thinking. Yet a majority of people fail to employ this faculty as they should... The purpose of this book is to summon people to think in the way they should and to guide them in their efforts to think.

NEVER PLEAD IGNORANCE

Never plead ignorance of Allah's evident existence, that everything was created by Allah, that everything you own was given to you by Allah for your subsistence, that you will not stay so long in this world, of the reality of death, that the Qur'an is the Book of truth, that you will give account for your deeds, of the voice of your conscience that always invites you to righteousness, of the existence of the hereafter and the day of account, that hell is the eternal home of severe punishment, and of the reality of fate.

ETERNITY HAS ALREADY BEGUN

In this book you will find explanations about eternity, timelessness and spacelessness that you will never have encountered anywhere else and you will be confronted by the reality that eternity has already begun. The real answers to many questions people always ponder such as where Allah is, the true nature of death, resurrection after death, the existence of an eternal life, and the time when all these things will happen are to be found here...

TIMELESSNESS AND THE REALITY OF FATE

How was matter and time created from nothingness?

What does the Big Bang theory signify about the creation of the universe?

How can a time slice of centuries in our view be a single "moment" in another dimension?

What is the parallelism between Einstein's Theory of Relativity and the Qur'anic verses?

All of these questions are answered in this book where it is described that time and matter are not absolute truths but mere perceptions. If you want to learn the truths about space, matter, time and fate, read this book.

THE TRUTH OF THE LIFE OF THIS WORLD

One of the major reasons why people feel a profound sense of attachment to life and cast religion aside is the assumption that life is eternal. Forgetting that death is likely to put an end to this life at any time, man simply believes that he can enjoy a perfect and happy life. Yet he evidently deceives himself. The world is a temporary place specially created by Allah to test man. That is why, it is inherently flawed and far from satisfying man's endless needs and desires. Each and every attraction existing in the world eventually wears out, becomes corrupt, decays and finally disappears. This is the never-changing reality of life.

This book explains this most important essence of life and leads man to ponder the real place to which he belongs, namely the Hereafter.

KNOWING THE TRUTH

"Everything that constitutes our life is a totality of perceptions received by our soul. The things, people, places and events that make our world and our lives meaningful are like a dream; we perceive them only as images in our brain, and have nothing to do with their truth or reality…"

In the book, which consists of a conversation between four people, the prejudices that prevent people from understanding this great truth are removed, and the misconceptions they have are explained.

A WEAPON OF SATAN: ROMANTICISM

In societies distant from religion, right is often presented as wrong, and vice versa. Unbecoming behaviour which will not please Allah may be favoured and encouraged. Romanticism is one of those wrong sentiments which is assumed to be "right". This book reveals what a serious threat romanticism - which is imagined to be a simple character trait - poses to societies and individuals, and shows how easy it is to eliminate this danger.

SOLUTION: THE MORALS OF THE QUR'AN

People who are oppressed, who are tortured to death, innocent babies, those who cannot afford even a loaf of bread, who must sleep in tents or even in streets in cold weather, those who are massacred just because they belong to a certain tribe, women, children, and old people who are expelled from their homes because of their religion... Eventually, there is only one solution to the injustice, chaos, terror, massacres, hunger, poverty, and oppression: the morals of the Qur'an.

THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

Incredibly complex structures of the living beings which were thought to be unsophisticated by Darwin… Perfect design examples in living bodies from human body to plants, from insects to birds. This book demonstrates the evident signs of creation with an explicit narration.

MATTER: The Other Name for Illusion

What is explained in this book is an important truth, which has surprised many and changed their perspectives on life. This truth can be summarized as follows: "All events and objects that we encounter in real life-buildings, people, cities, cars, places-in fact, everything we see, hold, touch, smell, taste and hear-come into existence as visions and feelings in our brains".
We are taught to think that these images and feelings are caused by a solid world outside of our brains, where material things exist. However, in reality we never see real existing materials and we never touch real materials. In other words, every material entity which we believe exists in our lives, is, in fact, only a vision which is created in our brains.

THE NIGHTMARE OF DISBELIEF

That people do not adopt the moral values of the Qur'an and submit to Allah underlie the personal and social depression, pain, fears and lack of confidence that is widely experienced today. This book explains the detriments that disbelief gives to people and discloses the only way to salvation, which is submission to Allah.
