EVER THOUGHT
ABOUT THE TRUTH?
The most serious mistake a man makes is not
pondering. It is not possible to find the truth unless one thinks
about basic questions such as "How and why am I here?", "Who created
me?", or "Where am I going?." Failing to do so, one becomes trapped
in the vicious circle of daily life and turns into a selfish creature
caring only for himself. Ever Thought About the Truth? summons
people to think on such basic questions and to discover the real
meaning of life.

BEFORE YOU REGRET
The purpose of this book is to warn people against the day on
which they will say "If only we did not rebel against Allah. If
only we listened to the messengers..." and therefore feel deep
regret. This is a summons to live for the cause of Allah when
there is still time.

| DEVOTED TO ALLAH
A Muslim's life
is concisely described as follows in the Qur'an: "Truly, my prayer
and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are (all) for
Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds." (Surat al-Anaam:162) Muslims
live for the cause of Allah and strive to earn the good pleasure
of Allah, arranging their lives according to His Will. A believer
who decides to live for the cause of Allah must abandon all the
idols of the society of ignorance Devoted to Allah is a summons

THE ALLIANCE OF THE GOOD
While watching television or reading the paper,
you see many items which you do would not like to see or hear.:
destitute people, murders, quarrels, ill-treatment, and much more...
Certainly, you, too, would like to live in a peaceful and secure
society where no one causes anyone else harm or distress; where
people live in harmony and friendship; where they hear kind, praising,
loving, and caring words from each other. However just waiting
for such a world to come about by itself one day is of no use.
This book is a summons to those who want goodness to prevail:
it calls on them to do goodness and to form an alliance with other
good people like themselves.

| QUICK
GRASP OF FAITH I-II-III

seek answers to and hope to be enlightened in the best way. However

these booklets, you will find the most accurate answers to all
the questions you seek answers for and learn your responsibilities
towards your Creator.

THE STRUGGLE
AGAINST THE RELIGION OF IRRELIGION
In this book, ideologies like materialism,
communism, and Darwinism - the so-called scientific basis of these
ideologies- and all other systems based on disbelief are referred
to as "the religions of irreligion." That is simply because these
ideologies have in time evolved to become religions with a complete
system of beliefs, practices, and rules for conducting one's daily
life. In an ideological sense, it is of great importance to invalidate
the basis of the religion of irreligion, especially at this time.

HOW DOES THE
UNWISE INTERPRET THE QUR'AN?
We have made things clear
in this Qur'an so that they might pay heed, but it only makes
them run away the more! (Surat al-Isra': 41)
The Qur'an has been sent down
as a book easily understandable by everyone. Everyone who believes
in Allah and follows his conscience can take counsel from the
verses of the Qur'an and obey the commands in the verses. However,
those who follow their lower self fail to measure Allah with His
true scale, entertain doubts about the hereafter, interpret the
verses of the Qur'an wrongly in their own crooked reasoning. In
this book, the reasons why those who do not use their intellect
misinterpret the Qur'an are examined and some examples of the
unwise interpretations and objections they make concerning the
verses are reviewed and answered.

CRUDE
UNDERSTANDING OF DISBELIEF
Allah, in the Qur'an, calls the culture
of people who are not subject to the religion of Allah "ignorance."
Only a comparison of this culture with the honourable thoughts
and moral structure of the Qur'an can reveal its primitive
and corrupted nature. The purpose of this book is to take
this comparison further, displaying the extent of the "crude
understanding" of ignorant societies.

| PERFECTED
FAITH
The "perfected faith" discussed
in this book represents the highest level of maturity and
depth of faith an individual can ever attain. According
to Qur'an, saying just "I believe in Allah" alone is
sufficient. However, Allah warns people against this
rationale: "Do people imagine that they will be left
to say, 'We believe,' and will not be tested?" (Surat al-'Ankabut,
2)
But how does a believer's faith grow mature and become perfect?
The purpose of this book is to define the "perfected faith"
and explain what is a person of perfected faith like, from
what kind of a belief in Allah does he have to about which
matters does he talk and how does he pray and what does
he ask for.

| SEEING
GOOD IN ALL
Seeing the good in all" is actually a fairly common
phrase. In the course of their daily lives, people will
frequently say, "There must be some good in this" or "It
is a blessing from God." However, people generally mouth
these phrases without understanding their true significance,
or merely to follow societal conventions. The purpose of
this book is to encourage man towards adopting the proper
moral principles by which he will say, "There is good in
this", not by mere words, but with his wisdom, and showing
patience in the face of difficulties with heartfelt submission
and gratitude, rather than merely enduring the situation.

| THE
MERCY OF BELIEVERS
God has promised "forgiveness and an immense reward"
(Surat al-Fath: 29) to His servants who believe, who are
compassionate towards other people and engage in righteous
deeds. This book is a summons to all men and women to think
about what true mercy is and to reconsider to what extent
they are imbued with the good values of the Qur'an which
demonstrate mercy.

|
| NEVER
FORGET
One of the principal deceptions that impel people
into delinquency is the fact that they constantly forget
the basic facts of life. This book summons man to remember
facts that his soul prompts him to forget.
