Who Killed Liberal Islam - Hasan Suroor
Provocative, insightful, and passionately argued, this book attempts to bring some perspective to an increasingly polarized debate on the crisis ofiberalism among Indian Muslims. It raises some profound issues at the heart of the crisis fuelled on the one hand by the growing influence of Wahhabism on Indian Islamâ€and on the other, by the rise of aggressive right-wing Hindu nationalism which has alienated even moderate Muslims. The book takes head-on the fundamental question: Isiberalism and Islam compatible or mutually exclusive? In doing so, it examines the way Islam is being preached and practiced both in India and abroad, to find answers to such niggling questions as: Who is a "good Muslim''? What constitutes the Muslim identity? Why do Muslims across the world remain silent instead of raising their voice for reform of regressive practices such as stoning? The decline ofiberal Islam in India, it argues, flows from the wider crisis in Islam globally. Upholding the syncretic "Ganga-Jamni tehzeeb'' that characterized Indian Islam, it tries to bring back the emphasis oniberal values of acceptance and inclusivity. It also dissuades secularists against trying to push through sweeping reforms in India before the community is ready for it, warning of a possible hardline backlash as in Turkey and Iran. Who Killediberal Islam? offers a much-needed corrective to the self-serving narratives on both sides of a divisive debate, and seeks to help concentrate minds on finding a way through the crisis.

Big Has HOME - Hasan Semay
"This book is just about food. Nothing flashy, no expensive equipment and gizmos. It’s entirely about flavours and understanding. Food in its entirety is more than about filling your stomach; it’s about stories, history, and those shared moments." – Hasan SemayGrounded and honest (and a little bit sweary), Hasan Semay (a.ka. Big Has) is a bright and talented North-London based chef and YouTube presenter. Having dropped out of school and tried his hand at odd jobs from plumbing to security, Has was accepted onto the prestigious Jamie Oliver "15" programme in 2011 which unearthed a true passion and flair for cooking. HOME is his debut cookbook and a celebration of the dishes, the places and the people that have made him who he is today.Fans of Hasan’s Instagram page and enormously popular YouTube series ''Sunday Sessions'' will recognise his ability to make incredible restaurant-quality food available to the masses, teaching his viewers how to appreciate ingredients and understand cooking not through dull step-by-step methods but by connecting more intuitively with the process. In this debut cookbook, Has takes those principles to the next level talking you through the stages of lighting a BBQ and how to prepare a variety of dishes from small plates to Turkish Cypriot classics as well as meat and fish straight off the grill.His food is beautiful and robust with familiar Mediterranean influences from his Cypriot heritage as well as from his time working in professional kitchens across London – think grilled butter-milk chicken thighs with chermoula, flame-licked steak and salsa verde, marinated lamb chops with salsa rossa, all countered by neat folds of glistening home-made pasta and the occasional jaw-dropping dessert. Now don’t think this means flashy, fiddly food – this is real food, treated with respect and cooked right – no tablecloths or fancy china, just your friends, round the BBQ proper Sunday session style, because food is a celebration of coming together.Peppered with anecdotes about working in professional kitchens and the characters and inspiration behind his food, HOME is a refreshing and accessible cookbook from a uniquely bold chef.

Islam - Malise Ruthven
Islam features widely in the news, often in its most militant versions, but few people in the non-Muslim world really understand the nature of Islam.Malise Ruthven''s Very Short Introduction contains essential insights into issues such as why Islam has such major divisions between movements such as the Shi''ites, the Sunnis, and the Wahhabis, and the central importance of the Shar''ia (Islamic law) in Islamic life.

How To Be A Liberal - Ian Dunt
‘A tour de force.’ – The Secret Barrister ‘Urgent and engaging.’ – Nick Cohen, Observer columnist ‘A phenomenal history from a truly big mind.’ – David Schneider, writer ''Required reading for anyone interested in politics and philosophy.'' – Prospect magazine In a soaring narrative that stretches from the battlefields of the English Civil War to the 2008 Wall Street crash and Brexit, Ian Dunt tells the story of liberalism from its birth in the fight against absolute monarchy to the modern-day struggle against dog-whistle nationalism. Narrated by the author, this vivid, epic book explains the political ideas which underpin the modern world. Written by a co-presenter of the Origin Story podcast, it is a call to action for those who believe in freedom and reason, and a clear-throated defence and explanation of why those values matter to us all, in our everyday lives. Mostly, though, it is political history and philosophy as it should be written (and read): taut, thought-provoking and bursting with ideas. Among the topics dealt with are: The birth of liberalism with Rene Descartes Radical ideas of freedom in the English Civil War Mob rule during the French Revolution Liberal values in the American War of Independence John Stuart Mill and liberalism''s great love affair The Nazi and Soviet crushing of individual liberty John Maynard Keynes'' liberal economics The rise of identity politics and groupthink Social media and misinformation Donald Trump and the rise of nationalism worldwide Why we fight for our values – the rebellion begins here Hailed as ''courageous'' by LBC''s James O''Brien and as a ''tour de force'' by the Secret Barrister, How to be a Liberal is both a history of the growth of individual liberty and a rallying cry to turn back the new populism threatening democratic values and personal freedoms. It is the book you need to navigate our times. Reviews ‘A tour de force; a mighty trumpet blast for the forces of liberalism and enlightenment in the face of a global tide of ignorance and populism.’ – The Secret Barrister ‘This is a history of ideas as it should be written – brilliant, vivid story-telling about the people who shaped liberalism, the challenges it has faced over the centuries, its commitment to the truth and why it’s now more important than ever to defend it.’ – Caroline Lucas MP ‘How To Be A Liberal is required reading for today’s political debates.’ – Anne Applebaum, Twilight of Democracy ''I''m loving How to be a Liberal. It''s really great. I mean breathtakingly good. Bravo.'' – Dr Ben Goldacre ''This book is required reading for anyone interested in politics and philosophy.'' – Prospect About the Author Ian Dunt is a columnist, author of How Westminster Works, and presents the Origin Story podcast. His first book, Brexit: What the Hell Happens Now? (Canbury Press, 2017), on Britain''s challenge in leaving the European Union, was a critically-acclaimed bestseller. In How To Be A Liberal (Canbury, 2020), he tells the epic story of personal freedom. Ranging across history, politics and economics, he makes a powerful case for a radical brand of egalitarian liberalism that can safeguard individuals while looking after everyone.

Islam and the Destiny of Man - Gai Eaton
Gai Eaton''s Islam and the Destiny of Man is a wide-ranging study of the religion of Islam from a traditional point of view. Covering all aspects that a reader would wish to know about Islam—including the Qur''an, the life of the Prophet, Islamic history, Islamic law, art and mysticism—Islam and the Destiny of Man explains what it means to be a Muslim and describes how Islam has shaped the hearts and minds of Muslims down the centuries. However, in Islam and the Destiny of Man, Gai Eaton is concerned not simply with Islam in isolation, but with the very nature of religious faith, its spiritual and intellectual foundations and the light it casts upon the mysteries and paradoxes of the human condition.

Islam - John Tolan
A concise new narrative history of Islam that draws on the transformative insights of recent research to emphasize the diversity and dynamism of the traditionToday’s Muslim world is in upheaval: legalists and mystics engage in intense debates, radical groups invoke Sharia, Muslim immigrants in the West face prejudice and discrimination, and Muslim feminists advocate new interpretations of the Koran. At the same time, Islam is mischaracterized as unitary and unchanging by people ranging from right-wing Western politicians claiming that Islam is incompatible with democracy to conservative Muslims dreaming of returning to the golden age of the prophet. Against this contentious backdrop, this book provides an essential and timely new history of the religion in all its astonishing richness and diversity as it has been practiced by Muslims around the world, from seventh-century Mecca to today. Most popular histories of Islam continue to repeat conventional pietistic accounts. In contrast, John Tolan draws on decades of new historical research that has transformed knowledge of the origins and development of the Muslim faith. He shows how the youngest of the three great monotheisms arose in close contact with Jewish, Christian, and other religious traditions in a mixture of cultures, including Arab, Greek, Persian, and Turkish; how Islam spread across an enormous territory encompassing hundreds of languages and cultures; how Muslims have forged widely different beliefs and practices over fourteen centuries; and how Islamic history provides crucial context for understanding contemporary debates in the Muslim world. At a time when much talk about Islam is filled with misunderstanding, stereotypes, and bias, this book provides a fresh and lucid portrait of the continuous and ongoing transformations of a religion of tremendous variety and complexity.

War and Peace in Islam
No word in English evokes more fear and misunderstanding than ''jihad''. To date the books that have appeared on the subject in English by Western scholars have been either openly partisan and polemical, or subtly traumatised by so many acts and images of terrorism in the name of jihad, and by the historical memory of nearly one thousand four hundred years of confrontation between Islam and Christianity. War and Peace in Islam: The Uses and Abuses of Jihad aims to change this. Written by a number of Islamic religious authorities and Muslim scholars, this work presents the views and teachings of mainstream Sunni and Shi''i Islam on the subject of jihad. It authoritatively presents jihad as it is understood by the majority of the world''s 1.7 billion Muslims today, and supports this understanding with extensive detail and scholarship. Though jihad is the central concern of War and Peace in Islam: The Uses and Abuses of Jihad, the range of the essays is not confined exclusively to the study of jihad. The work is divided into three parts: War and Its Practice, Peace and Its Practice, and Beyond Peace: The Practice of Forbearance, Mercy, Compassion and Love. War and Peace in Islam: The Uses and Abuses of Jihad aims to reveal the real meaning of jihad and to rectify many of the misunderstandings that surround both it and Islam''s relation with the ''Other''.

Liberal Worlds - H. S. Jones
The intellectual biography of a Victorian Liberal polymathJames Bryce (1838–1922) was a leading figure in Britain’s Liberal Party and a distinguished historian, a versatile scholar-politician who moved seamlessly between academia and politics. He was, among many other things, a cabinet minister and a popular ambassador, an expert on American politics and on Roman law, an advocate for the Armenian people and an architect of the League of Nations, a world traveller and a climber of Mount Ararat. In Liberal Worlds, Stuart Jones offers an intellectual biography of Bryce, tracing a Scots-Ulster Presbyterian’s assimilation to the increasingly multiconfessional Victorian state, and a late Victorian Liberal’s encounter with the wider world. Jones shows how a polymathic intelligence grappled with a dizzyingly wide range of concerns and issues, including the challenges of democracy and race relations, the rise of modern universities and the reconstruction of the international order after World War I. In mapping the evolution of Bryce’s thought, Liberal Worlds illuminates the international intellectual networks and the many places across the globe that shaped his thinking. Jones considers, for example, why a man who had a lifelong revulsion against slavery seemed to accept racial segregation in the American South; how a vigorous activist for girls’ and women’s education became a tenacious parliamentary critic of women’s suffrage; and why, over the objections of his Ulster Presbyterian family, he backed Irish home rule. Above all, Jones rescues Bryce—immensely influential in his time, now little remembered—from being consigned to a historical pigeonhole, restoring him to the centre of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century debates over the nature of democratic politics.

Conflict or concord? The history of Islam, from its emergence in early seventh century Arabia and its explosive growth into the wider Middle East, is often portrayed as a story of the struggle with and conquest of the Christian people of Greater Syria, Palestine, and Egypt. Alternatively, the?appearance of Islam is characterized as being welcomed by the conquered, whose existing monotheistic faiths of Christianity and Judaism were tolerated and even allowed to flourish under Muslim rule. In this concise but in depth survey of the almost nine centuries that passed from the beginning of the spread of Islam up to the Ottoman Turkish conquest of Syria and Egypt beginning in 1516, Constantin Panchenko offers a more complex portrayal of this period that opens up fresh vistas of understanding, focusing on the impact that the appearance of Islam had on the many forms of Christianity they encountered, principally the Orthodox Christian communities of the Middle East. In particular he illuminates the interplay of their Greek cultural heritage with increasing Arabization over time. This is essential reading for those who want to gain an understanding of the history of the Middle East in these centuries and of how the faith of Orthodox Christians in these lands is lived today. ?

The House of Islam - Husain Ed
''A powerful corrective'' Guardian ''This should be compulsory reading'' Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads‘For anyone interested in the future of Islam, both in Britain and the Islamic world, this is an important book’ The Times The gulf between Islam and the West is widening. A faith rich with strong values and traditions, observed by nearly two billion people is seen by the West as something to be feared rather than understood. Sensational headlines and hard-line policies spark enmity, while ignoring the feelings, narratives and perceptions that preoccupy Muslims today. The House of Islam seeks to provide entry to the minds and hearts of Muslims the world over. It introduces us to the kindness of Mohammed, the beauty of Islamic art and the permeation of the divine in public spaces; and the tension between mysticism and literalism that still threatens the religion. Ed Husain expertly and compassionately guides us through the nuances of Islam and its people, contending that the Muslim world need not be a stranger to the West, nor its enemy, but a peaceable ally.

Queens of Islam - Tom Verde
From Pakistan to Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan to Nigeria, from Senegal to Turkey, it is not unusual in modern times for women in Muslim-majority countries to be appointed and/or elected to high offices, including heads of state. Nor has it ever been. Stretching back nearly to the founding of Islam itself, women have held positions of political power in numerous Islamic nations and empires. Some ascended to office in their own right; others served as regents for incapacitated husbands or male successors then too young to rule. Some proved insightful and able administrators, courageous military commanders, or both; others differed little from their equally flawed, power-hungry male counterparts, and sowed the seeds of their own downfalls. Queens Of Islam examines the lives of fifteen of the most remarkable female leaders of Muslim dynasties, empires, and caliphates - from Islam''s earliest centuries through the end of the seventeenth century. Their stories demonstrate that throughout the faith''s long history there were many women who achieved positions of power and served as effective rulers, revered by those they governed while being respected - even feared - by their contemporary world leaders. Entertaining and informative, Queens Of Islam is rife with palace intrigue, sex scandals, power-grabs, and military conquests, set against a backdrop of Islamic world history.

Ježíš Kristus a islám - Lukáš Lhoťan
V předkládané knize autor zkoumá, jak se k učení Ježíše Krista staví islám, a zabývá se otázkou ideologických a teologických rozporů mezi těmito dvěma světovými náboženstvími. Lhoťan se tak snaží překlenout mnohdy příliš povrchní pohled na islám převažující v České republice. Kniha poukazuje nejen na zásadní rozdíly mezi interpretací postavy Ježíše Krista v islámu a křesťanství, nýbrž také poukazuje na problémové části mezináboženského dialogu, kdy křesťané mnohdy podléhají strachu z kritiky kontroverzních části islámu. Přitom by však části islámu, jež jsou neslučitelné nejen s křesťanstvím, ale i s civilizovanou společností ctící humanitu a lidskou svobodu, neměly být přehlíženy.V Čechách a na Moravě bývá součástí islámské misie místy až agresivní a lživá agitace zaměřující se proti křesťanství, kdy je muslimy využíváno protikřesťanských a protikatolických nálad v české společnosti. Tato kniha proto představuje sumarizaci základních faktů potřebných pro pochopení problému islámu a islamizace, a to nejen křesťany, ale i ateisty. Byť je autor bývalým muslimem, jenž se po studiu života Ježíše Krista přiklonil ke křesťanství, uctívá jako zásadní hodnotu danou Bohem právo na svobodu přesvědčení. Jeho kniha tedy není zamýšlena jako prezentace pozitivního obrazu křesťanství na úkor islámu či ateismu, spíše má být české společnosti jakýmsi varováním, poněvadž vlivem současné expanze islámu podpořené vymíráním křesťanského společenství mohou již příští generace žít ve společnosti islámem formované. Na příkladu takovýchto společností podřízených islámskému právu se dnes již ukazuje, že i středověká křesťanská netolerance byla oproti vládě islámu jen "procházkou růžovým sadem".

Islám a křesťanství v Bibli - Sayed R. Ali
Křesťanství a islám jsou dvě velká světová náboženství, obě s více než miliardou následovníků. Přestože mají z praktického hlediska mnoho společného, zeje mezi nimi hluboká propast. Jedním z hlavních důvodů je nedostatek informací a vzájemného pochopení. Aby nám naše společné dědictví mohlo být ku prospěchu, musíme hledat možné cesty vzájemného sblížení. Obsahem této publikace není nic nového, jedná se pouze o shrnutí některých citátů z Bible, které dokládají tvrzení muslimů, že islám není novým náboženstvím s cizími zásadami a základním učením. Muslimové dnes následují učení všech Božích proroků (jak je najdeme v Bibli). Právě muslimové se nejvíce řídí učením Ježíše Krista (mír s ním) a zaslouží si tedy, aby se jim říkalo "praví následovníci Ježíše Krista". Islám je náboženstvím, které bychom mohli nazvat "biblickým", protože prvky islámské víry a praxe jsou v Bibli jasně patrné, a to jak v tzv. Starém, tak i v tzv. Novém zákoně. A právě to se snaží tato publikace objasnit.

Introducing Islam - Ziauddin Sardar
Islam is one of the world''s great monotheistic religions. Islamic culture, spanning 1,500 years, has produced some of the finest achievements of humanity. Yet the religion followed by a fifth of humankind is too often seen in the West in terms of fundamentalism, bigotry and violence- a perception that couldn''t be more wrong.Introducing Islam recounts the history of Islam from the birth of Prophet Muhammad in the 6th century to its status as a global culture and political force today. Charting the achievements of Muslim civilisation, it explains the nature and message of the Qur''an, outlines the basic features of Islamic law, and assesses the impact of colonialism on Muslim societies.Ziauddin Sardar and Zafar Abbas Malik show how Muslims everywhere are trying to live their faith and are shaping new Islamic ideas and ideals for a globalised world.

Islam - Karen Armstrongová
One of the world''s foremost commentators on religious affairs on the history (and destiny) of the world''s most misunderstood religion.In the public mind, Islam is a religion of extremes: it is the world''s fastest growing faith; more than three-quarters of the world''s refugees are Islamic; it has produced government by authoritarian monarchies in Saudi Arabia and ultra-republicans in Iran. Whether we are reading about civil war in Algeria or Afghanistan, the struggle for the soul of Turkey, or political turmoil in Pakistan or Malaysia, the Islamic context permeates all these situations.Karen Armstrong''s elegant and concise book traces how Islam grew from the other religions of the book, Judaism and Christianity; introduces us to the character of Muhammed; and demonstrates that for much of its history, the religion has been a force for enlightenment that promoted liberties for women and allowed the arts and sciences to flourish.ISLAM shows how this progressive legacy is today often set aside as the faith struggles to come to terms with the economic and political weakness of most of its believers and with the forces of modernity itself.

Two great thinkers debate the question burning behind headlines across the world. ‘No civilization, no matter how mighty it may appear to itself, is indestructible.’–Niall Ferguson‘We do not need to invent the world anew. The international order established by the United States after World War II is in need of expansion and repair, but not reconception.’–Fareed ZakariaFears of a globalized world are rampant. Across the West, borders are being reasserted and old alliances tested to their limits. Could this be the end of the liberal order or will the major crises of the twenty-first century strengthen our resolve?

Tato kniha objektivně představuje islám tak, jak jej chápou "tradiční imámové", a nabízí čtenářům autentické a hluboké nahlédnutí do islámu. V knize se prolíná pohled na víru založenou na Koránu s názory současné vědy. Je proložena výstižnými a pečlivě vybranými citacemi významných světových osobností. Pojednává i o tzv. kritických otázkách, tedy o některých aspektech islámského mravního řádu, které bývají v západních médiích často interpretovány značně deformovaně. Tato celobarevná publikace vychází ve výpravné podobě a s bohatým a milým grafickým doprovodem autora. Knihu uvádí slova předního českého odborníka na islám profesora Luboše Kropáčka. Svým kultivovaným pojetím se liší od mnoha ostatních knih na toto téma. Pochází z pera mladého, vzdělaného a moderního egyptského autora, který načerpal klasické vzdělání na prestižní islámské univerzitě al-Azhar, řadu let působil v Evropě, kde se kromě jiného zasazoval i o mezikulturní a mezináboženský dialog, a dnes zastává místo imáma ve významné historické mešitě Sultána Hasana v Káhiře. Ahmad Hemaya napsal i řadu dalších knih o islámu, historii, ekonomice a geografii a za jednu z nich mu byl v roce 2002 udělen v Irsku čestný doktorát.

Islam in Europe - Diana Luber
This illuminating exhibition catalogue interrogates the entanglement of the Islamic world with European visual culture during the medieval period and Renaissance, from the 9th century to the end of the 17th. It traces and reveals this interconnectedness through works of art that reflect the intense environment of contact, influence and exchange which developed over centuries between the two cultures. It also explores the reception of the image of ‘Islam’ in Europe, as highlighted by an important painting of the Supper at Emmaus, painted in the so-called ‘Oriental Mode’ by the Venetian artist Giovanni Mansueti (c. 1465–1527) in the last decade of the 15th century. Islam in Europe presents a survey of artistic production in the medieval Islamic world and the many ways it altered the trajectory of European visual culture. Opening with earlymedieval objects produced by Muslim artisans and known to have been exported in large numbers to medieval Europe, the catalogue explores the crosscurrents of visual culture at the nexus of Islam and Christendom which were already well developed by the 10th century. It continues with artworks produced under the aegis of the Umayyads (711–1031) and later Islamic dynasties which ruled large swathes of the Iberian Peninsula until 1492, and the influence of Islamic rule on the development of a distinctive visual culture in medieval Spain. A central group of objects traces the breathtaking force with which refined export wares from Mamluk Egypt and Syria, Central Asia and Anatolia flooded the Italian market during the 14th to 16th centuries, revolutionizing European aesthetics as well as the taste for (and very definition of) luxury goods. This section of the catalogue includes objects that chart the rise of European textiles, metalwork, ceramics and other arts specifically emulating Islamic designs. The catalogue concludes with a group of important early textiles spanning the 13th to 17th centuries. It explores how and why European artists started to incorporate lavish Ilkhanid silks into their imagery, and how Italian weavers began to imitate both these early imports, and later also Ottoman velvets flooding the market in the 15th century, with voracious appetite. One of the catalogue’s key foci is an important group of rare Anatolian carpets woven between the 15th and 17th centuries and richly imitated both by European painters including Titian and Holbein, and by local weavers vying for control of the market in luxury furnishings. The catalogue presents 60 works of art, which have taken a decade to bring together and are presented in this way for the first time. Together the works elucidate the complete integration of Islamic art and artisanal technology into European visual culture during a period of extraordinary efflorescence. A brief introductory essay explores questions of entanglement in the medieval world and proposes a new lens through which to examine the artistic production of the period. The catalogue closes with a new essay by Michael Franses analyzing the importance of the only firmly dateable ‘Lotto’ Arabesque carpet still in existence, acquired by The David Collection, Copenhagen, in 2022.

Science & Civilization in Islam - Seyyed Hossein Nasr
Science and Civilization in Islam has remained unsurpassed as the authoritative statement on this subject. With his characteristic breadth of learning, clarity of exposition and insight, Seyyed Hossein Nasr presents here for the first time a full picture of Islamic science, not as a chapter in the history of Western science, but as an integral aspect of Islamic civilisation and the Islamic intellectual tradition.By means of an historical presentation, an analysis of its forms, including the use of passages from the writings of many Muslim scientists and philosophers, the author is able to convey not only a sense of the operative context of Islamic science but he also demonstrates its inter-relatedness with the sapiential wisdom on which it is based. An introductory chapter provides the reader with a necessary orientation to the subject according to the principles of Islam, while subsequent chapters survey the whole spectrum of the individual sciences from cosmology, philosophy, and theology to alchemy, physics, mathematics, astronomy, and medicine concluding with a chapter on the gnostic tradition.For this edition, Dr Nasr has written a preface surveying the fields covered in the book since its first appearance in 1968, and has provided a supplement that brings the Bibliography up to date.
