Contemporary Issues In Islamic Communication
The book contains a collection of essays on issues that are of concern to Muslim media and scholars and practitioners. The issues are those that are constantly highlighted in the mass media in the Muslim world. All the issues are discussed from the Islamic perspective. The main purpose of the book is to give readers a clear understanding of how Muslims view contemporary issues that are reported and discussed in present day mass media. The book is written for students majoring in communication at the International Islamic University Malaysia. It is also useful for students taking courses on communication issues in other universities.
Zakat and Poverty Alleviation (P/B)
This edited book aims to raise issues pertaining to the topic of zakat and its primary goal of poverty alleviation. It portrays the dynamism of zakat by highlighting pertinent issues on the management of zakat institutions and innovative programmes that are designed as effective distribution mechanisms. Discussions include zakat payment motives, ways to measure the efficiency of zakat disbursement, economic development initiatives, housing programme, microfinancing, and actual impact on poverty alleviation. The discussions raised put emphasis on policy-orientation with dedicated sections on policy implications and recommendations. This approach is deemed necessary since it could guide the thought process of interested parties towards the creation of new ideas to actualize zakat as a very reliable tool in addressing the massive problem of poverty among Muslim communities. This special feature also significantly adds to the much-needed reference materials in courses on zakat at the intermediate level of undergraduate studies and introductory level of postgraduate programmes.
Management of Halal Food Quality
Management of Islamic-based development is a new mechanism in quality management including halal food quality. Considering the issue of integrity in halal food-quality management, efforts to empower the economy of the country through halal food are faced with obstacles and constraints. This book highlights issues commonly found in the management field. This is seen important as those in the management of halal food quality are sometimes trapped in issues that can tarnish Islam. The production of foods that are not pure in nature (halal status not genuine) can also have a negative effect on the morals and souls of Muslims.
Riba: Usury or Interest
The Noble Qur’an states: {… Fear Allah, and give up what remains of your demand for usury/interest, if you are indeed believers. If you do not do so, then take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger.} (Qur’an 2: 278-279) Despite this obvious prohibition, the practice of ribâ (usury and interest) has polluted the global economy completely. This booklet explains the awful consequences of dealing in usury and interest in a summarized but convincing manner.
Tajdid, Islah and Civilization Renewal in Islam
The history of Islamic thought is marked by a continuous tradition of internal revitalisation and reform embedded in the principles of islah, and tajdid. The ultimate purpose has been to bring existing realities and social change in line with the transcendent and universal standard of the Qur’an and Sunnah through a process of restoration and reform. The tradition of islah-tajdid has thus consistently challenged the Muslim status quo and prompted fresh interpretation of the Qur an and Sunnah, understood and implemented through the methodologies of interpretation and ijtihad, as well as the rejection of unwarranted accretions to the original messages of Islam. The basic theme of the paper is that civilisational renewal is an integral part of Islamic thought. The paper looks into the meaning, definition and origins of tajdid and islah and their relationship with ijtihad, and how these have been manifested in the writings and contributions of the thought leaders of Islam throughout its history. It also develops tajdid-related formulas and guidelines that should lead the efforts of contemporary Muslims in forging the objectives of inter-civilisational harmony and their cooperation for the common good.
The Book Of Revenue
Kitab al-Amwal (The Book of Revenue) is the work of a brilliant legal mind. Abu Ubayd al-Qasim ibn Sallam provides us with an accurate record of legal precedents laid down in the first two centuries of Islam, in particular those pertaining to the sources of revenue and the avenues of public expenditure. The power of the book, however, lies in the method of the author and the analysis undertaken by him. He gathers together the traditions of the Prophet (pbuh), the opinions of his companions, and the views of eminent jurists, and then subjects them to legal analysis that is unparalleled in Islamic legal literature. The book is essential for every student of Islamic law, especially those who wish to master the art of interpreting and analyzing legal traditions and early precedents. In the discipline known as fiqh al-sunnah, there is no book or manual that can compete with this outstanding work.
Islamic Finance in Malaysia: Growth & Development
This modern history of Islamic finance is pretty short spanning a period of roughly five decades, compared to conventional finance which goes back to more than four centuries earlier. Islamic finance has spread rapidly across the globe, reminiscent of Lao-Tzu’s famous saying “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. Malaysia, a pioneer in the development of the Islamic finance industry, has emerged as one of the major hubs for global Islamic finance.
Sukuk: Principles & Practices (P/B)
Sukuk are an important asset class which has captured the attention of a wide range of issuers and investors, regulators and sovereigns, and academics and market players. The sukuk industry has made remarkable leaps since its modern inception in the 1990s. It has grown in size and volume, evolved in structural possibilities, and successfully expanded the boundaries of the Islamic capital market to far-flung jurisdictions worldwide. Its promising future has led the International Shari’ah Research Academy for Islamic Finance (ISRA) and Securities Commission Malaysia (SC Malaysia) to collaborate to provide essential and comprehensive knowledge on this key instrument of the Islamic capital market.
Islamic Economics : Principles & Analysis (P/B)
Economics is a social science that studies the behaviour and interactions of economic agents and analyses how economies work at the macro- and micro-levels. It studies production, distribution and consumption of goods and services, identifies economic problems and phenomena, and addresses economic questions from a positive perspective (what is) as well as a normative (how it should be) perspective. Islamic economics examines the same areas as its conventional counterpart. However, it involves the application of Sharīʿah to the different economic functions and issues. It is postulated that Islam offers a better approach compared to conventional economics in managing economic activities and solving economic and social issues.
Your Money Matters (H/B)
This book highlights issues that are important and relevant to Muslims when they engage in tasks related to personal finances, business administration, investment, and work. Readers will find an overview of relevant excerpts from the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah. Non-Muslims as well can gain valuable insights from this book that should prove useful in today’s multi-cultural business landscapes.
The Hard Truth of Islamic Finance
What is the book all about? It seeks to strike a balance between objectives and expectations. While expectations are easy, meeting objectives is hard.
The book also aims at unlocking the real face of Islamic finance without any make-up or cosmetic touch-up. The moment it is linked to something external and artificial, it becomes cluttered.
For all intents and purposes, every discipline has its core torso and fabric. Islamic finance should have its own ‘DNA’ and identity. The book is simply about bringing Islamic finance back to its basics. You may add on additional verticals and layers but it cant be on the expense of its core foundation.

The Minor Resurrection – Islamic Creed Series 5
What happens after death? When will the end of the world be? Are we really living in the ‘last days’? These are questions which concern everyone, no matter what his or her background. Many have tried to answer these questions, producing theories that range from the fanciful to the nihilistic, but manmade notions cannot answer questions about matters which the human has no way of finding out by himself or herself. In these as in so many other issues, Islam brings us answers. Surely the One who gives life and takes it away is the One who is the best to inform us of what happens after death. The One who has created this universe and humankind is the best to tell us about when this world will come to an end and humankind will be called to judgement. He has informed us about these matters, in His Book and through His Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him).
In this book, Dr. ‘Umar al-Ashqar examines all these issues from the point of view of the Qur’an and the Sunnah. He looks at issues of death and what happens to a person’s soul after death, including the questioning of the angels and the torment of the grave. He also examines the signs of the Last Hour, which indicate that the Day of Judgement is approaching – many of which are already happening. As always, he quotes extensively from the texts, placing these issues squarely within an Islamic framework and dispelling the myths and misunderstandings that have arisen and become prevalent. This Islamic Creed Series of books has been translated into English by Nasiruddin al-Khattab.
