The Path to Jannah: Guidance from the Quran and the Prophet’s Biography on the Principles, Actions, and Mindset that Lead to Paradise in the Hereafter (islamic books)
The Path to Jannah
Throughout history, people from different walks of life have attempted to portray the unique attributes of Paradise in paintings, films, and literature—yet all that we have seen (or imagined) in this worldly life is nothing compared to what Paradise actually is. As conveyed to us by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), the last and final prophet of the heavenly revealed religions, it is a place that “no eye has ever seen, no ear has ever heard of, and nobody has ever thought of.”
Despite the mystery surrounding this topic, the Glorious Quran reveals numerous details about the final abode of the believers (called “Jannah” in Arabic), providing rich descriptions of its magnificent bounties and clear guidelines for passing the tests of this life that will grant one entrance to Allah’s Eternal Gardens.
Written in accessible language for those wishing to know more about the Islamic concept of Paradise, “The Path to Jannah” is a book that takes readers on an insightful journey into some key Quranic verses and authentic sayings of the Prophet (PBUH) that we should all be aware of in order to understand and fulfill our true purpose in life, which is something that can only be achieved by taking the path of goodness that Allah SWT promises will lead to success in the Hereafter.
“The Path to Jannah” is an uplifting and beneficial read for anyone who wishes to cultivate the key traits associated with the inhabitants of Paradise, with practical tips and advice to help all those striving to attain the ultimate reward.
Some of the questions answered in this book include:
- Who are the people who pass the tests of this worldly life and end up in Paradise?
- Will they remember anything about the worldly life of this dunya?
- Will they be reunited with their loved ones?
- How do the angels assist the believers in the Hereafter?
- What does Islam say about the experience of death?
- Is Paradise the same for all people—or are some more privileged than others?
- Will it be possible to see the Creator in the Hereafter?
- Is faith alone sufficient to grant someone entry to Paradise?
Suitable for teens and adults alike, “The Path to Jannah” provides a complete roadmap to help sincere seekers of the truth reach the final destination of Paradise.

Understanding Islam: Its Spirit and Values
“Most of the great religions of the world began with the need to reform individuals and society, especially when there was large-scale moral degeneration. But over time, their essence became obscured by politics and rhetoric, leading to misinterpretation and fundamentalism. Islam is no exception.
Understanding Islam examines the true spirit and essence of the religion based on its original scripture, the Holy Quran, and how far it has moved away from its spirit and values. Using Abdullah Yusuf Ali’s translation, The Meaning of Glorious Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary, as well as Wahiduddin Khan and Farida Khanam’s translation, The Quran, the author discusses the Quranic invalidity of the interpretation of the religion by hardliners and counters prevailing distortions in the interpretation of some of the verses that only serve divisive and extremist agendas. The book also sheds light on simple yet profound questions of right and wrong, divine mercy and wrath, trials and prayer, life and the afterlife.
A moving and deeply spiritual read, Understanding Islam is a must-read to comprehend the true nature of Islam.

Misquoting Muhammad: The Challenge and Choices of Interpreting the Prophet’s Legacy (Islam in the Twenty-First Century)
AN INDEPENDENT BEST BOOKS ON RELIGION 2014 PICKFew things provoke controversy in the modern world like the religion brought by Prophet Muhammad. Modern media are replete with alarm over jihad, underage marriage and the threat of amputation or stoning under Shariah law. Sometimes rumor, sometimes based on fact and often misunderstood, the tenets of Islamic law and dogma were not set in the religion’s founding moments. They were developed, like in other world religions, over centuries by the clerical class of Muslim scholars.
Misquoting Muhammad takes the reader back in time through Islamic civilization and traces how and why such controversies developed, offering an inside view into how key and controversial aspects of Islam took shape. From the protests of the Arab Spring to Istanbul at the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and from the ochre red walls of Delhi’s great mosques to the trade routes of the Indian Ocean world, Misquoting Muhammad lays out how Muslim intellectuals have sought to balance reason and revelation, weigh science and religion, and negotiate the eternal truths of scripture amid shifting values.

Catholic Missionaries in Early Modern Asia: Patterns of Localization (Religious Cultures in the Early Modern World)
Over recent decades, historians have become increasingly interested in early modern Catholic missions in Asia as laboratories of cultural contact. This book builds on recent ground-breaking research on early modern Catholic missions, which has shown that missionaries in Asia cooperated with and accommodated the needs of local agents rather than being uncompromising promoters of post-Tridentine doctrine and devotion.
Bringing together some of the most renowned and innovative researchers from Anglophone countries and continental Europe, this volume investigates how missionaries’ entanglements with local societies across Asia contributed to processes of localization within the early modern Catholic church. The focus of the volume is on missionaries’ adaptation to four ideal-typical social settings that played an eminent role in early modern Asian missions: (1) the symbolically loaded princely court; (2) the city as a space of especially dense communication; (3) the countryside, where missionary presence was only rarely permanent; (4) and the household – a central arena of conversion in early modern Asian societies.
Shining a fresh light onto the history of early modern Catholic missions and the early modern Eurasian cultural exchange, this will be an important book for any scholar of religious history, history of cultural contact/global history and early modern history in Asia.

Uncovering the Pearl: The Hidden Story of Christianity in Asia: 2 (The Global Story of Christianity)
Asia is by far the largest continent in the world. The global expansion of the church, which emanated from the Middle East (as explored in the first book in the series) moved along various routes to take root in Asia proper. Christianity in Asia is extraordinarily diverse, with very ancient forms of the faith dating to the time of the apostles. The western church will be enlightened by the dynamic, multi-pronged Asian story of Christianity. Asian Christianity is also distinct due to the numerous non-traditional, house, or cell movements found throughout the region. The diversity of Christianity in Asia makes Christians in this region critical for the future of global Christianity.Read more

Unholy Union: When Rugby Collided with the Modern World
What is the state of rugby?
Is the game on the brink of expansion?
Or is it on the brink of implosion?No game has undergone so traumatic a transformation since the turn of the century. The last of the major sports to embrace professionalism, rugby was propelled on a trajectory that has twisted its cumbersome frame to the limit in a drama compelling and appalling to behold. After a hundred years defying the future, rugby now shudders with the turmoil of its sudden leap into the modern world, attaining heights hitherto undreamed of, even as the strains – financial, political, social and medical – threaten to tear it apart.
With a global focus (and a particular lens on Australasian and South African rugby), Unholy Union is a fascinating and in-depth analysis of the sport, examining the journey so far and speculating on where it will go next. It is irreverent and provocative, asking uncomfortable questions of rugby, but imbued throughout with affection for a game that integrates all human life, as beautiful as it is ugly, as in love with itself as it is terrified.
Sports enter periods that make or break them.

A Brief History of Witchcraft and the Occult: A Beginner’s Journey from the Surreal to the Scientific, From Crystals and Tarot to Science and Philosophy
Journey back with this brief and introductory history to the real origin of witchcraft and the occult—and find out why they’ve been feared and misunderstood for thousands of years.
From ancient Egyptian healers and Celtic druids to the Salem witch trial victims and modern-day Wiccans, witches have always been misunderstood. Because of that, they’ve been feared, persecuted, and blamed for everything from failing crops and miscarriages to wars and famines.
But what’s the true story behind caricatures like the Sanderson Sisters and the Wicked Witch of the West? When and where did witchcraft begin, and how has it evolved over time? Which practices and traditions have survived from the ancient world? And why do people really fear witches?
To find the answers, we have to journey back almost to the beginning of history, to a time when magic and those who practiced it were respected members of society. Over time, that would change. By tracing that evolution, we can learn more not only about witchcraft and the occult, but about why our society is both intrigued by and afraid of it.
In this fascinating book, you’ll learn about the various ways magic has been used in both the ancient and modern world, including:
- How ancient Egyptians used magic for healing and protection…but also vengeance
- Why magicians in ancient Mesopotamia held the keys to civilization
- How a secret occult society led to the Western fascination with mystical, forbidden knowledge
- The real story behind the Salem witch trials and the European witch hunts
- How 19th-century women used seances and ouija boards to advocate for their rights
- The pagan practices that led to the modern-day Wicca movement
- Why crystals and tarot cards have remained popular for thousands of years
- Why witches are still feared and misunderstood today
And much more!
Whether you’re a history buff, modern-day magic practitioner, or just curious about the history of witchcraft, this book will give you a clearer picture of how magic has been practiced, understood, and misunderstood from ancient to modern times.
Fun and easy to read, it’s a great introduction to the role witchcraft has played in cultures around the world, the real historical figures who helped shape present-day perspectives on witches, and the circumstances that have led to witches and the occult being shunned.
Reading this book will help you:
- Understand the role witchcraft played in ancient civilizations
- Learn which elements of witchcraft and the occult are still around today
- Dispel dangerous myths about witches and the occult
- Improve your knowledge and take your study deeper

The Devil’s Delusion is a brilliant, incisive, and funny book that explores the limits of science and the pretensions of those who insist it is the ultimate touchstone for understanding our world.

Thus Spoke the Plant: A Remarkable Journey of Groundbreaking Scientific Discoveries and Personal Encounters with Plants
This compelling story of a scientist’s discovery of plant communication reveals how we “have been misunderstanding plants, and ourselves, for all of history”–for fans of The Hidden Life of Trees (The Paris Review).In this “phytobiography”–a collection of stories written in partnership with a plant–research scientist Monica Gagliano shares genuine first-hand accounts from her research into plant communication and cognition.
By transcending the view of plants as the objects of scientific materialism, Gagliano encourages us to rethink plants as people–beings with subjectivity, consciousness, and volition, and hence having the capacity for their own perspectives and voices. The book draws on up-close-and-personal encounters with the plants themselves, as well as plant shamans, indigenous elders, and mystics from around the world and integrates these experiences with an incredible research journey and the groundbreaking scientific discoveries that emerged from it.
Gagliano has published numerous peer-reviewed scientific papers on how plants have a Pavlov-like response to stimuli and can learn, remember, and communicate to neighboring plants. She has pioneered the brand-new research field of plant bioacoustics, for the first time experimentally demonstrating that plants emit their own ‘voices’ and, moreover, detect and respond to the sounds of their environments. By demonstrating experimentally that learning is not the exclusive province of animals, Gagliano has re-ignited the discourse on plant subjectivity and ethical and legal standing. This is the story of how she made those discoveries and how the plants helped her along the way.

Notes on Complexity: A Scientific Theory of Connection, Consciousness, and Being
An electrifying introduction to complexity theory, the science of how complex systems behave, that explains the interconnectedness of all things and that Deepak Chopra says, “will change the way you understand yourself and the universe.”
Nothing in the universe is more complex than life. Throughout the skies, in oceans, and across lands, life is endlessly on the move. In its myriad forms—from cells to human beings, social structures, and ecosystems—life is open-ended, evolving, unpredictable, yet adaptive and self-sustaining. Complexity theory addresses the mysteries that animate science, philosophy, and metaphysics: how this teeming array of existence, from the infinitesimal to the infinite, is in fact a seamless living whole and what our place, as conscious beings, is within it. Physician, scientist, and philosopher Neil Theise makes accessible this “theory of being,” one of the pillars of modern science, and its holistic view of human existence. He notes the surprising underlying connections within a universe that is itself one vast complex system—between ant colonies and the growth of forests, cancer and economic bubbles, murmurations of starlings and crowds walking down the street.
The implications of complexity theory are profound, providing insight into everything from the permeable boundaries of our bodies to the nature of consciousness. Notes on Complexity is an invitation to trade our limited, individualistic view for the expansive perspective of a universe that is dynamic, cohesive, and alive—a whole greater than the sum of its parts. Theise takes us to the exhilarating frontiers of human knowledge and in the process restores wonder and meaning to our experience of the everyday.

The Scientific Deception of the New Atheists
Proponents of the New Atheist movement commonly use scientific discourse to make a case against theism. Richard Dawkins famously positions Darwinian evolution as a replacement for the ‘God Thesis’. New Atheists like A.C Grayling, Christopher Hitchens and others make the case that belief in religion is inhibiting to science. Moreover, New Atheists claim that science can tell us all we need to know about the world. On this view, reference to a divine being is superfluous. This small book is a refutation of these claims. By referencing the works of western intellectuals, the author demonstrates decisively how flawed these postulations are. The author is able to show that despite the seemingly forceful and pervasive nature of New Atheist claims in public discourse, the actual success of New Atheists is largely over-rated.Read more

Reality Reloaded: The Scientific Case for a Simulated Universe
The book “Reality Reloaded: The Scientific Case for a Simulated Universe” caters to a diverse audience, including scientists, academics, students, and the general public.
The simulated universe hypothesis postulates that our reality is a simulated construct, much like a sophisticated computer programme or virtual reality simulation. In this scenario, the physical laws governing our reality are algorithms, and our tangible experiences are simply generated by the computational processes of an immensely advanced system.
While inherently speculative, the simulated universe theory has gained traction due to rapid advancements in technology, the emergence of powerful computers capable of running complex simulations, virtual reality applications becoming increasingly sophisticated and immersive, certain philosophical considerations, and recent scientific developments in the field of information physics.
Within the scientific community, the concept of a simulated universe has sparked both fascination and skepticism. The key question remains: Can we find scientific evidence to support or refute the simulated universe hypothesis?
Answering this key question is the main focus of the book. The author delves into the connections between information science, technological advancements, cutting-edge concepts in physics, and the plausibility of the simulated universe hypothesis, offering unique perspectives and novel scientific arguments that appear to support the hypothesis. The book is very stimulating and invites further research in the fascinating field of information physics.
