Laraki A: The Practical Guidebook of
Essential Islamic Sciences

The Practical Guidebook of Essential Islamic Sciences

A Commentary on Ibn Ashir's al-Murshid al-Mu'in

The Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik (Organising the means and revealing the methods for discovering the eminent scholars of the School of M¿lik) by Q¿¿¿ 'Iy¿d al-Yä¿ub¿ is a seminal biographical compendium of the scholars of the M¿lik¿ school. It begins with an extensive biography dealing with Im¿m M¿lik and records the chains of scholars from him, divided by region, listing over 1300 scholars in nine generations in eight volumes. through nine generations to the time of the author.
Shaykh Abdalqadir as-Sufi regarded the Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik as the essential record of the intellectual lineage of the scholars who transmitted the school of Madina, and it is the foundational reference in his seminal work, Root Islamic Education because of how it highlights the knowledge and behaviour exemplified in the lives of the early scholars. He says:'We can show you a line that goes from Madinah al-Munawwara at the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and give him peace, through to Imam Malik, and from Imam Malik continues for five hundred years-in the Middle East, to the gates of India and to the gates of Russia, right across North Africa, right into Europe. For five hundred years, you find that the leadership was in the hands of slaves who were fuqah¿' and before whom amirs bowed their heads. And I say that is Islamic history, and not this other thing that has been invented by the orientalists which we have fallen for - of dynasties and epochs marked by changes in the style of jugs and arches.' (p.16)
You could say that the Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik provides the foundation and blueprint for the understanding conveyed by Root Islamic Education. The work provides biographies of the scholars and their historical positions and how they dealt with the problems that arose in times of conflict because we see the interaction of scholars with the Abbasids, Aghlabids, Fatimids, Andalusian Umayyads, Mur¿bit¿n, and others. We see how they interacted with power, and the role and proper behaviour of the q¿¿¿. It also fleshes out the implementation of the d¿n, providing a practical guide to education and action. It shows Islam embodied in real people and the action which that produces in society. It is a corrective to an abstract or idealised approach to Islam. It also provides us with a rich tapestry of the history in which the scholars lived, particularly North Africa and Andalusia, and a sort of historical map of Maliki scholars. It is, as Shaykh Abdalqadir says in Root Islamic Education:'We would take the Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik of Qadi Iyad because it gives this record and will let them see an example on which they must be based, and on which they have no choice but to be based. The Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik is a record of human achievement, Islamically, that, I tell you, when you study it, you will say, "I did not know such men existed on the face of the earth!" And the Tart¿b al-Mad¿rik is more electrifying than any of the books of the Tadhkirat al-Awliya' and so on-much more electrifying as a phenomenon of the human splendour of the people that this Islamic deen has produced. It is magnificent, in its raising up of the human being.' (p. 21)

The Rise and Fall of the Muslims is an analytical and critical study of Islamic history examining the moral, spiritual, and political factors that shaped the trajectory of Muslim civilization. Authored by Maulana Saeed Akbar Abadi, the work traces the formative period of Islamic governance from the era of the Khulaf¿¿ al-R¿shid¿n through the Umayyad, Abbasid, Ottoman, Andalusian, and Mughal periods.
The book situates political authority within the Qur'¿nic framework of taw¿¿d (Divine Unity), taqw¿ (piety), justice, and public accountability. It highlights how adherence to revelation, ethical governance, and supervision of authority contributed to early Muslim ascendancy, while internal dissension, moral decline, administrative corruption, and weakening of religious commitment are identified as causes of deterioration.
Major themes include:The Caliphate and its juristic foundations
Governance under Banu Umayyah and Banu Abbas
The Ottoman (¿l-e-¿Usm¿n) polity and its decline
Muslim rule in Andalusia and India
Spiritual and intellectual vitality as civilizational foundations
Causes of degeneration in political and moral life




The work adopts a reflective historiographical method, combining narrative history with moral analysis. Rather than presenting political theory in modern ideological terms, it frames Muslim ascendancy and decline through adherence to, or departure from, Qur'¿nic principles and prophetic guidance.
This volume is suitable for scholars, students of Islamic history, and institutional libraries seeking a comprehensive interpretive account of Muslim political civilization within its classical religious framework.

From the Pious Caliphs to Abbasid Spain and Mughal Dynasties

The Rise and Fall of Muslims - An Analytical and critical study of Islamic History

The Madhhab of Madina Previously published as The Madinan Way, this small treatise of Ibn Taymiyya (661/1263-728/1328), the extremely influential medieval Hanbali jurist, has an importance belied by its size since it is, in fact, an investigation into the origin and nature of the Prophetic Sunna. In it he discusses the value of the consensus of the people of Madina and its standing as evidence. He also deals with the lawful and unlawful, food and drink, usury, acts of worship and other matters, and compares the school of the people of Madina regarding all these things with the other schools, making it clear that the Madinan school is the soundest of all of them and the closest to the Sunna and the practice of the Salaf. Although usually associated with hadith-based legal reasoning, in this work Ibn Taymiyya demonstrates the unquestionable authority of the practice of the people of Madina, showing how it remained indisputably the authentic expression of the Sunna of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, during the first three generations of Islam when it was definitively recorded by Imam Malik ibn Anas. The conclusion he reaches is that: "In the time of the Companions, the Followers and their Followers, their school was the soundest of the schools of the people in all the lands of Islam, east and west, both in respect of its fundamental principles and its secondary rulings."

The Soundness of the Basic Principles of the School of the People of Madina

The Madhhab of Madina

Welcome to "Islamization: Reforming Contemporary Knowledge" by Abdu Hamid A. Abu Sulayman. In this captivating exploration, the crisis of knowledge in our modern world is unraveled, tracing its roots and offering insightful solutions rooted in Islamic principles.
Dive deep into the heart of contemporary thought as Abu Sulayman delves into the delicate balance between revelation and reason. He guides us through the genesis of the crisis of knowledge, illuminating how it has manifested in various spheres of society. From the corridors of academia to the halls of governance, the repercussions of this crisis are profound and far-reaching.
But fear not, for within these pages lies a roadmap to redemption. Abu Sulayman advocates for a redefinition of knowledge-one that integrates the timeless wisdom of Islam with the demands of our rapidly changing world. Through meticulous scholarship and impassioned rhetoric, he calls for the establishment of a robust Islamic infrastructure and education system to serve as the bedrock of a reinvigorated intellectual tradition.
Central to Abu Sulayman's thesis is the Islamization of knowledge-a bold endeavor that seeks to infuse academic disciplines with the ethical framework of Islam. Drawing upon the rich tapestry of Islamic history and jurisprudence, he offers a compelling vision for the future of political science, challenging prevailing notions such as democracy and sovereignty. By interrogating the very foundations of these concepts, Abu Sulayman demonstrates their inadequacy in capturing the complexities of Muslim societies and their governance structures.
Yet, "Islamization" is more than just a critique of contemporary thought; it is a call to action-a rallying cry for all those who yearn for a more just and equitable world. Through the lens of political science, Abu Sulayman invites us to reconsider our assumptions about power, authority, and governance. He challenges us to confront the uncomfortable truths that lie at the heart of our modern political systems and to imagine alternative futures grounded in the principles of justice and compassion.
But perhaps most importantly, "Islamization" is a testament to the enduring vitality of Islamic thought. It reminds us that the wisdom of the past is not lost but waiting to be rediscovered and revitalized for a new era. Abu Sulayman's vision is one of hope-a vision that dares to imagine a world where knowledge is not a commodity to be bought and sold but a sacred trust to be nurtured and cherished for the betterment of humanity.
So, dear reader, I invite you to embark on this journey of discovery and transformation. Let the pages of "Islamization" be your guide as you navigate the complexities of our modern world with wisdom, courage, and compassion. Together, let us forge a new path-one that honors the past, embraces the present, and beckons towards a brighter future for all.

Kitab Al-Siyar Al-Saghir

The Glorious Caliphate by S. Athar Husain presents a detailed historical and administrative study of the Khil¿fat-e-R¿shidah (11-40 A.H. / 632-661 A.D.), the formative era of Islamic governance following the passing of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
Drawing upon classical Islamic sources and historical accounts, the work examines the lives, policies, and reforms of the first four Caliphs-Ab¿ Bakr, ¿Umar, ¿Uthm¿n, and ¿Ali (may Allah be pleased with them). The book situates their leadership within the broader framework of Qur'¿nic guidance and Prophetic Sunnah, highlighting the ethical principles, legal foundations, and administrative structures that shaped the early Islamic polity.
Part One narrates the life and achievements of each Caliph, tracing the transition from Prophetic mission to institutionalized governance. Part Two analyzes the administrative systems established under their rule, including civil administration, financial policy, judicial organization, military structure, and public works.
Particular attention is given to the development of the Bayt al-M¿l (State Treasury), taxation policies (Zak¿t, Khar¿j, Jizyah), judicial appointments, advisory councils, and military regulations. The study demonstrates how ethical restraint, accountability before Allah, and commitment to justice remained central to early Islamic governance.
Written in clear English and supported by references to classical authorities, this volume is suited for scholars, students of Islamic law and history, and institutional libraries seeking a structured presentation of the early Caliphate as a model of principled statecraft.

The Glorious Caliphate

Israel und Deutschland pflegen - als historische Lehre aus dem Holocaust - ein besonderes Verhältnis. Die deutsche Israelpolitik orientiert sich dabei - besonders seit einer Rede, die Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel 2008 vor dem israelischen Parlament hielt - am höchst ambivalenten Konzept der 'Staatsräson'. Dieses Konzept gewann mit dem Hamas-Angriff auf Israel im Oktober 2023 an Bedeutung, um die praktisch bedingungslose deutsche Unterstützung der israelischen Kriegsführung in Gaza und darüber hinaus zu rechtfertigen. Kai Ambos unterzieht die 'Staatsräson' einer historisch-etymologischen Analyse und klärt ihr Verhältnis zu Völkerrecht und Verfassung; er zeigt, dass die Verwendung des Begriffs im deutsch-israelischen Verhältnis viele ungelöste Fragen aufwirft und seine Umsetzung zu rechtsstaatlichen Problemen führt. Danach analysiert er den Gaza-Krieg völkerrechtlich und untersucht, ob die israelische Anwendung militärischer Gewalt als Reaktion auf den Hamas-Angriff von 2023 als Selbstverteidigung zulässig ist und sich im Einklang mit dem Recht des bewaffneten Konflikts befindet. Auf dieser Grundlage fragt er, ob Kriegsverbrechen, Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit und sogar ein Genozid begangen worden sein könnten. Als mögliche rechtliche Konsequenzen betrachtet er schließlich Deutschlands Verantwortlichkeit aufgrund des Rechts der Staatenverantwortlichkeit, insbesondere mit Bezug auf Waffenlieferungen, sowie das (palästinensische) Recht auf (bewaffneten) Widerstand. Zuletzt beantwortet er die Leitfrage, wie mit der Staatsräson im Lichte des Gaza-Kriegs umzugehen ist.

Das deutsch-israelische Verhältnis und das Völkerrecht

Staatsräson nach Gaza

Islam began as a call to conscience-the Qur'an spoke of justice, mercy, and human dignity long before anyone wrote a legal code. As the Muslim community grew into an empire, however, jurists, religious legal scholars, built a vast system of law to govern daily life. Over centuries, that system stopped looking like one interpretation among many. It became sacred. Final. Untouchable.
When Jurists Ruled the Faith asks a direct question: What happens to a religion when human legal decisions are treated as though they came from God?
Dr. Mark A. Gabriel traces how obedience to inherited law gradually replaced the freedom to reason and act on one's own conscience-not because Muslims chose obedience over morality, but because the system left little room for anything else. The result was a civilization in which law regulated worship, family life, commerce, criminal justice, warfare, gender relations, and relations with non-Muslims, often through claims of divine authority mediated by jurists.
Drawing upon Islamic history, Qur'anic interpretation, jurisprudence, and modern human-rights thought, this book examines how juristic authority became embedded in Muslim institutions and why meaningful reform continues to face resistance.
This is not an argument against Muslim faith or against Muslims. It is a serious examination of the human institutions that claimed the power to speak in God's name. By distinguishing revelation from the legal structures later built around it, When Jurists Ruled the Faith opens a path toward intellectual honesty, moral responsibility, freedom of conscience, and genuine reform.

Islamic Law of Divorce presents a concise and structured study of the juristic principles governing marriage dissolution in Islamic law. Written with particular attention to clarity and legal method, the work explains the foundations, procedures, consequences, and limitations associated with talaaq and related forms of marital dissolution.
The study begins with the principal sources of Islamic law-the Qur'an, Sunnah, ijma and qiyas-before examining the distinctive legal character of the Muslim marriage contract. The author emphasizes that divorce is regulated by prescribed conditions and procedures rather than being an unrestricted act, and discusses reconciliation, arbitration, periods of purity, iddah, revocable and irrevocable divorce, and the consequences of multiple pronouncements. 
Further chapters address divorce by implication (kinayah), the right of re-taking, remedies available to a wife, conditions incorporated into a marriage contract, and tafwid ul talaaq, by which the husband may delegate authority to the wife under defined terms. The manuscript also compares juristic positions associated with the Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali schools where relevant. 
A substantial concluding section considers judicial grounds for dissolution sought by the wife, including absence or disappearance of the husband, failure to maintain, failure to fulfil marital obligations, impotency, insanity, disease or defect, and cruelty. In doing so, the work illustrates the operation of juristic reasoning, necessity, and inter-madhhab legal consideration within Islamic family law. 
Originally intended to set out the basic rules of Islamic divorce law in a clear and accessible manner, this edition incorporates additional articles written after the first edition of 1983. 
Suitable for students of Islamic law, scholars of classical fiqh, legal researchers, Muslim family-law practitioners, seminaries, and academic libraries, this volume offers a compact study of divorce as a regulated legal institution within the classical juristic tradition.
