The author of this text argues that, although the Islamic and the pre-Islamic Hausa medical systems have much in common, their theoretical and conceptual frameworks are different. They operate from different understandings of the causes of disease and misfortune, and of the appropriate methods to be employed to restore health or alleviate suffering. The book also discusses another significant difference between the Islamic and non-Islamic Hausa medical systems: the mode of preserving and communicating medical knowledge. The early history of Islamic medicine is also described, and its theories, concepts and historical developments are explored.

Seyyed Hossein Nasr merupakan salah seorang tokoh dan “orang pertama” yang paling otoritatif dalam membicarakan kajian-kajian Timur, utamanya disiplin filsafat dan mistisisme Islam. Oleh karenanya, kita patut bersyukur bahwa Ach. Maimun Syamsuddin telah meluangkan waktu untuk menerjemahkan salah satu teks kunci filsafat Islam ini ke dalam bahasa kita secara bernas. Buku yang pada mulanya disampaikan sebagai bahan kuliah di Harvard University ini penting kita baca jika kita hendak memahami lebih mendalam tentang korpus filsafat Islam. Penulis buku ini punya hipotesis menarik. Ia menyatakan bahwa filsafat Islam, pada prinsipnya, dapat diklasifikasikan ke dalam tiga madzhab utama: Madzhab Ibnu Sina, Madzhab Suhrawardi, dan Madzhab Ibnu ‘Arabi. Adapun percikan-percikan filsafat dari filsuf-filsuf Islam lainnya tak lebih hanyalah “catatan kaki” dari ketiganya. Maka, untuk mendalami filsafat Islam secara lebih detail, orang terlebih dahulu memahami secara benar buah pikiran ketiga filsuf tersebut. Dan, melalui karya ini, penulis hendak menuntun pembaca bertamasya ke taman filsafat Islam yang sesungguhnya yang lebih kompleks, rumit, dan membahagiakan.

This is the first book in the English language to deal with the spiritual significance of Islamic art including not only the plastic arts, but also literature and music. Rather than only dealing with the history of the various arts of Islam or their description, the author relates the form, content, symbolic language, meaning, and presence of these arts to the very sources of the Islamic revelation. Relying upon his extensive knowledge of the Islamic religion in both its exoteric and esoteric dimensions as well as the various Islamic sciences, the author relates Islamic art to the inner dimensions of the Islamic revelation and the spirituality which has issued from it. He brings out the spiritual significance of the Islamic arts ranging from architecture to music as seen, heard, and experienced by one living within the universe of the Islamic tradition. In this work the reader is made to understand the meaning of Islamic art for those living within the civilization which created it.

Islamic counselling is a form of counselling which incorporates spirituality into the therapeutic process. Until now there has been little material available on the subject with no one agreed definition of Islamic counselling and what it involves. There has also been a rapidly growing population of Muslims in Western societies with a corresponding rise in need of psychological and counselling services. Islamic Counselling: An Introduction to theory and practice presents a basic understanding of Islamic counselling for counsellors and Islamic counsellors, and provides an understanding of counselling approaches congruent with Islamic beliefs and practices from a faith-based perspective. The book is designed as an introduction for counsellors, its goal is to inform the reader about how the diverse roles of the Islamic counsellor fit together in a comprehensive way and to provide the guidelines that can be potentially integrated into a theoretical framework for use. The book is divided into two parts. Section one: Context and Background, and Section two: Assessment, Models and Intervention Strategies. Islamic Counselling encompasses both current theory, research and an awareness of the practice implications in delivering appropriate and effective counselling interventions with Muslim clients. It will be essential reading for both professionals and students alike.

This book is one of the first ones of its kind in the market clearly explaining and expounding the Attributes of God in the Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions. This book is a valuable guide not only to any university student; but is equally interesting for a general reader who wonders and appreciates the bonding of compassion and love God has for His creatures as seen in His Attributes.
He is the Guide who does not need anybody to guide Him or any counselor to
counsel Him. He is Allah, the Exalted, the Most High. Everything that Allah has
created is guided by Him. In the case of humankind, Allah has bestowed him with

The importance of the rule of law is universally recognised and of fundamental value for most societies. Establishing and promoting the rule of law in the Muslim world, particularly in the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia, has become a pressing but complicated issue. These states have Muslim majority populations, and the religion of Islam has an important role in the traditional structures of their societies. While the Muslim world is taking gradual steps towards the establishment of rule of law systems, most Muslim majority countries may not yet have effective legal systems with independent judiciaries, which would allow the state and institutions to be controlled by an effective rule of law system. One important aspect of the rule of law is freedom of expression. Given the sensitivity of Muslim societies in relation to their sacred beliefs, freedom of expression, as an international human rights issue, has raised some controversial cases. This book, drawing on both International and Islamic Law, explores the rule of law, and freedom of expression and its practical application in the Muslim world.
