A Journey Through the World of Belief R129.99
Monotheism (Tauhid)—the Oneness of God (Allah)—is the very essence of Islam, encompassing the Muslim’s core belief system.
This 377-page book explores, investigates and details the concept of Islamic monotheism: What God can and cannot be, that which is impossible and permissible on Him, His undisputed attributes and Inner-Self, how to know God, and the Universe’s genesis.
The book further investigates why Allah’s existence is wajib, the concept of iman (faith) and what it means, how man’s actions affect his reward and retribution in this world and the after-life. Deeper universal subjects that still perplex mankind such as Qada and Qadr (fate and destiny) are also explored – from an Islamic perspective. This extensive study, which also details the historical background to the rise of certain sects in Islam and their belief systems, such as the Shia, Khawarij, Asha-‘irah and Mu’tazilites is certified and endorsed by the al-Azhar University in Cairo, Egypt, for its clarity of content.
An easy to follow glossary makes this, yet another publication by Shaikh Abdurraghiem Hasan Sallie, appealing to readers across denominations.
Excerpt
“This science is wajib (necessary) for every male and female to study. It is also the duty of every parent, teacher and spiritual guide, to ensure that children are taught this science so that they would be able to base their principles of life on the tenets of tauhid. Tauhid should be taught at the level of comprehension and perception of the child and student. Naturally, the degree of difficulty of the subject matter will be taught at the level of the individual’s mental development. This must be the most important issue in every Muslim’s life and in every Muslim home. It is more important than salah, hajj, fasting and all other forms of worship because no act of worship is accepted by Allah if we have false beliefs that result due to lack of tauhid.” -

A Comparative Study of Inheritance in Islam R119.99
In this 376-page publication, Abdurraghiem Hasan Sallie provides an insight into the laws pertaining to Inheritance in Islam. Using and translating prepared works by Dr Taha Abdul Aziz Abu al Fadl, an Al-Azhar University professor and one of his teachers, the author not only expounds upon how the shares of inheritance are calculated and allocated but also how those very same laws are compared in relation to other belief systems.
Sketching a background to Islam’s position on the subject, Sallie takes the reader through inheritance laws before the advent of Islam, under the Egyptians, the ancient Greeks, and Romans and in parts of Europe as well as Russia.
For the Muslim reader, he details the laws and ramifications of inheritance according to the four major schools of thought (Madha-hib). Amongst the detail provided in this book is the inheritance of the unborn child as well as the Quranic texts on determining the shortest period of pregnancy, the decree of the inheritance of a missing person as well as that of the illegitimate child. The distinction between the inheritance of a woman and man has valid reasons, according to the Shariah (Islamic law), which is clarified in the book. The compulsory stipulated shares as explained in the Qur’an are diagrammatically explained by way of examples.
This book is certified and endorsed by the Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.
Excerpt
“If we compare the system of inheritance in Islam with that of other religions on earth, then any honest investigator will come to one conclusion – that the method advanced by Islam has no comparison in its justice and precision. It had no equal before the advent of Islam and neither will it have an equal amongst the most intelligent and advanced communities.”

Haj – Hanafiy & Shafi’iy R99.99
Every Muslim is enjoined to perform Haj at least once in a lifetime when he/she is by the means to undertake such a journey. Today the cost of completing this journey is quite substantial, and it is, therefore, sensible to perform the rites of Haj correctly as intended by Allah and His Messenger ﷺ.
This comprehensive and in-depth publication expounds the manner and method of performing the rites of both Haj and ‘Umrah by both the Shafi’i and Hanafi schools of thought. It discusses in detail the history of Haj and its directive, virtues, compulsion, when it became far, the excellence of Makkah and its grade above Madinah. It further discusses each and every principle and action of Haj from the niyah, the donning of the ihram and its ramifications, the rules for the correctness of Haj, the rules of tawaf, the sa-‘im, the sunnan of wuqoof, its wajibaat and its significance. The rites to perform during the five actual days of Haj and the pelting of the Jamaraat as the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performed it are discussed in detail. Added benefits are the detailing of subjects such as the origin of zam-zam, qasr (shortening the salah) Salah, the joining of two prayers, the hadee and the Qurban, visiting the grave of the Prophet and the graves of his Companions.
The du’ahs for all the rites are provided both in Arabic and in English. The discussion of celebrating Eid-ul-Adha with Makkah has been added, detailing the dispute, the sighting of the new moon, the fatwa (judgement) from the Shaykhul-Azhar (Head of the Al-Azhar University in Cairo), the universal Islamic calendar and the conclusion.
Numerous Qur-’anic texts and Ahadith are cited to prove to the reader that there exists only one way of performing Haj and that is the correct way.
Excerpt
“Righteousness can only be attained if we follow and observe the principles which lead to righteousness. To perform a righteous Haj we must first know the meaning of the word Haj, its purpose, significance and the rules and regulations of these rites rather than being obsessed about performing the rites. Haj in effect is man’s evolution to Allah…It is a time of self-discovery.”
