In addition, Michael shared his own inspiring messages of love, caring, and compassion."

Islam Unveiled: A Starting Point by Mohammed Faruque (2 Reviews)    Price verified 8 hours ago

In this book (which has a lot of colored text for ease of reading), I use the lens of a rationalist to discern the correct means of practicing Islam, and upon research, I have thereafter arrived at a startling conclusion: that Islam must be followed in accordance with the Quran alone, without the Hadith and what is known as the "Sunna". This goes against centuries of established doctrine, but I use historical analysis from peer-review research to pinpoint: • The origins of Hadith • Early criticism of Hadith and how it has shaped modern Islamic jurisprudence • Later scholarly criticism of many narrations found in Hadith • A proposed revision to the method by which scholars authenticate Hadith narrations. Then I proceed to explain the invalidity of Hadith as a source of religious law, according to multiple verses from the central text of Islam, the Quran. I then proceed to compare side-by-side many significant Hadith narrations, and how they contradict with many important Quranic verses. And finally, based on the above information, I do my best to synthesize Quranic verses to re-examine Islamic doctrine and practices in detail, based on the lens of the Quran alone. Here's what I go over: • The "Five Pillars" • The nature of our deaths • Our origins, the creation of the universe, and how this life we currently have is our "second chance" based on our original sins in a past existence (hint: I propose the controversial idea that Adam may not be the "first human") • The significance of the age of 40 in the Quran, and how it relates to the way we parent our kids • What it takes to actually be a disbeliever in the Quran (hint: it is way more complicated than just being a non-Muslim) • The origins of the Torah and the identity of the "People of the Book" • Marriage and divorce rules • Illicit sex and the correct punishments and thresholds • Why Islamic states, and any entity that seeks to enforce Islamic teachings and punishments ...

The Book of Revelation: Verse by Verse Commentary by Robert Clifton Robinson (Teach The Word Publishing, Inc) (6 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

The Book of Revelation is the most important book for this precise time in history. The events that are described within its pages were written for us today. Every strange coded word and phrase is meant for this generation. The application of everything that is written in Revelation was penned for people who are alive today. Unless a person has spent the past 30 years teaching the entire Bible, they are not qualified to write a commentary on the Book of Revelation. For this reason, a majority of the books today that claim to be a valid commentary were written by people who are not really qualified to write commentary for Revelation. The reason is simple: In order to really understand Revelation and have the ability to write a valid and accurate commentary, a person must have studied the entire Bible before the Book of Revelation. The texts of Revelation assume that the reader has read, and has a good working knowledge of the whole Bible, before they read and study Revelation. I waited to write my commentary of Revelation for 45 years. I have taught this important book more than 17 times in the previous 38 years in the United States, Europe, and Asia. I have published audio commentary on Revelation, beginning about 20 years ago. I did not think that I was ready or qualified to write the book you find here today, until I was confident that I knew and understood the rest of the Bible sufficiently in order to publish a reliable commentary for Revelation. When the proper commentary is written for Revelation, the author must include hundreds of other texts from all over the Bible, in order to confirm and validate all the statements and conclusions that are included in his commentary. A majority of people who attempt to write a book about Revelation don't have this ability, and they write commentary based upon their personal understanding and opinions. When you read this commentary, you will quickly discover just how much of the whole Bible is included in ...

Epistemological Bias in the Physical & Social Sciences by Abdelwahab M. Elmessiri (Editor) (International Institute of Islamic Thought) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

The question of bias in methodology and terminology is a problem that faces researchers east, west, north and south; however, it faces Third World intellectuals with special keenness. For although they write in a cultural environment that has its own specific conceptual and cultural paradigms, they nevertheless encounter a foreign paradigm which attempts to impose itself upon their society and upon their very imagination and thoughts. When the term "developmental psychology" for instance is used in the West Arab scholars also say "developmental psychology", when "applied psychology" is mentioned they hurry to use the same term etc. Why not establish a new science with its own mechanisms, methodologies and points of reference to deal with epistemological biases and open up the gate of ijtihad with respect to them? This collection of papers aims to discover some of the biases latent in our terminology, methodologies, research tools, and conceptual principles, and to propose alternative ones marked by a greater degree of independence and neutrality. This is not to belittle the human value of the West's creative contributions but to emphasize the danger of making it the ultimate point of reference and then trying to continuously play "catch up" with it.

Practical Religion: What True, Biblical Christianity Should Look Like [Updated and Annotated] by J. C. Ryle (1 Review)    Price verified 8 hours ago

How much religion among many members of churches consists of nothing but church rituals! They belong to their church. They are baptized, married, buried in at the church, and preached to on Sundays by her ministers, but the great doctrines of truth have no place in their hearts and only a little influence on their lives. Is the religion of these people real Christianity? No, it is Churchianity - and nothing more! If your religion is real and has been given by the Holy Spirit, it must be in your heart. It must sway the affections. It must lead the will. It must direct the tastes. It must influence the choices and decisions. It must fill the deepest, lowest, inmost seat in your soul. Is this your Christianity? Real Christianity will cause a person to glory in Christ as the Redeemer, the Deliverer, the Priest, and the Friend - without whom he would have no hope at all. It will produce confidence in Him, love toward Him, delight in Him, and comfort in Him as the Mediator, the Food, the Light, the Life, and the Peace of the soul. This Christianity will produce in the person who has it repentance, faith, hope, love, humility, spirituality, kindness, self-denial, unselfishness, forgiveness, temperance, truthfulness, brotherly kindness, patience, and forbearance. Is this your religion? About the Author John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) graduated from Eton and Oxford and then pursued a career in politics, but due to lack of funds, he entered the clergy of the Church of England. He was a contemporary of Spurgeon, Moody, Mueller, and Taylor and read the great theologians like Wesley, Bunyan, Knox, Calvin, and Luther. These all influenced Ryle's understanding and theology. Ryle began his writing career with a tract following the Great Yarmouth suspension bridge tragedy, where more than a hundred people drowned. He gained a reputation for straightforward preaching and evangelism. He travelled, preached, and wrote more than 300 pamphlets, tracts, and books, including Expository ...
