Not that I know of sis, sorry. I purchased it from a bookshop in Qom so not sure how accessible that is for you. However there are some other good sources online, I'll try and find some and pm them to you once you make 3 more posts and can use the pm function, InshAllah.
Wa Salam
Thank you and inshallah

Fair enough, although if you read it, you might take a liking to the adeptly employed sarcasm and wit and and how Austen uses the plot and the characters to make fun of the face fanning society herself. And if not, well you can continue with your "Shut up Caroline" stance

It's not romance---none of Jane's novels focus or even set around romance

I define Islam for you in a way that nobody dared to do it before me. Islam means obedience to Allah, obedience to Allah means having sincere faith in Him, such a faith means to believe in His powr, belief in His powr means recognizing and accepting His majesty, acceptance of His Majesty means fulfilling the obligations laid down by Him and fulfillment of obligations means actions (Therefore, Islam does not mean mere faith, but faith PLUS deeds). - Imam Ali (AS)

I just finished "Then I Was Guided". It is soo good I recommend it for all Muslims to read.
Currently reading "Jesus Through Shi'ite Narrations"
Currently reading "Jesus Through Shi'ite Narrations"
Would that be the same as;
Jesus: Through the Qur'an and Shi'ite Narrations
Mahdi Muntazir Qa'im
This also sounds like it would be good reading;
War, Peace, and Non-Violence: An Islamic Perspective
Imam Muhammad Shirazi
I came across it when I was looking for the one you mentioned.

Nabokov's and Kafka's books were out of stock, I heard today. So they delivered the rest. I think I'm gonna start with Ismail Kadare novel. I have heard a lot of praise for this work. Albanian novel - that's not usually advertised enough.
