Assalamualaikum. My vacations have just begun and I've planned to make it productive by reading good books both Islamic and fiction, so I'd love it if you all can help me by recommending some excellent books. And also, I am planning to read books by nadia hashmi and jenny nordberg, what are your reviews on their books? Jazakallahu khair. Was salam

Assalamu Alaykum, I am looking for the book Tawhid al-Mufaddal, which is a compilation of Imam Jafar al-Sadiq's (a.s) teachings.How can I find it?

I hope you are all doing well So we've all read the Quran, but do we all really understand it? Do we deduce the right interpretation? I have begun to use al-mizan online and noticed how different my understanding was to that of a studied scholar. However, the website doesn't have the tafsir for all surahs. I prefer a book I can hold anyway, rather than a screen to read from. I can open a book whenever and wherever. Though depending on the price, I may be forced to read a pdf file. So I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions? Are these tafsirs precise, or just as accurate as can be? Hope to hear from you!

I need quotes of Prophet, Hazrat Ali and companions of Prophet. But I would like to read it from a book which is mutually accepted by both Shia and Sunni Muslims. Can some assist? ?

Bismillah Assalaamu alaikum One day I was in the store, and while my husband was taking his time picking a birthday card for someone, a nearby bookshelf piqued my interest. I glanced over it--mostly cheesy-looking teen romance novels. But there were also quite a lot of children's coloring books for sale. I thumbed through some of the coloring books. Disney princesses galore. And then the idea struck. Why don't I make a Muslim coloring book so that Muslim parents options aren't limited to scantily clad princesses and other non-Muslim characters when buying coloring books for their kids? So I began. InshaAllah my goal is to have a completed book by the end of next summer (20-25 pages). In the meantime I am selling individual page downloads as I complete them. I've created this blog so that I can have feedback, advice, suggestions, etc. And of course, shameless self-promotion I haven't done any other promotion yet--I wanted to start here on Shiachat because it's more comfortable and I can get some advice. InshaAllah later when I have more pages, I can start branching off to more social media outlets. Download here

Jesus the Muslim Prophet: History Speaks of a Human Messiah Not a Divine The book is a detailed comparative study of the nature of Jesus according to the Qur’an and the New Testament and other Christian sources. Relevant concepts are also examined in the Old Testament and other Jewish sources, as well as historical sources. The book avoids polemics, focusing on analysing the relevant texts. complete text: http://www.louayfatoohi.com/2015/12/news/my-book-jesus-the-muslim-prophet-free-online/

My God! What a book! It is a must read!!!! It tackles so many question on God. This is just the first volume! This text deals with a set of ideological and scholastic questions based upon Islamic theology from the perspective of Shī‘ah Imāmiyyah school of thought. Reason and revelation have been the final reference and arbiter in decisions and evaluations. A series of lessons surrounding recognition of God is presented. http://www.al-islam.org/discursive-theology-volume-1-dr-ali-rabbani-gulpaygani

(salam) Has anyone read Mizan al-Hikmah? If you have, what did you think of it? (wasalam) AB313

Salaam alaykuum brothers/sisters I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to recommend some free online books and also as I'm new to this website give me a quick walk through as to how it works :)

so online there's this picture floating around claiming in Volume 2 of Tahzib-ul Ahkam, on page 116 in Kitabul Makasib, there's a quote that says "The wealth, the property and everything which belongs to a Sunni is actually yours (is legal for you)" Now I'm very skeptic about the quote and the picture. I need someone who owns Tahdhib/Tahzib-ul Ahkam to: please verify for me whether or not this quote exists if it is on page 116 if it is in volume 2 and what the wording is. Please guys! http://pbs.twimg.com/media/BVg9wD3CAAAQo1u.png:large

Dedication To the martyrs of the Islamic Resistance and to its devoted warriors who were not allured by the materialistic ‘method’ but led by reason towards the vastness of the unsee n, towards the school of “ But I cast love over thee from Me and in order that thou mayest be reared under Mine eye ”. To those men and women who have engaged much in God 's praise, to the strangers whose hearts have been ove rwhelmed with divine words, to the knowers whose faith has n ot been distorted by materialism nor the fantasies of Sufis . To those who are the true pioneers of the practical aspect of the rational method and its true embodiment, the me thod of the unseen. To them I am honoured to present these words.

“Love” was wild and bloody from the beginning … Writers and poets have always called Love ‘wild’. Love, particularly a fiery one (it may not be called love if not fiery) does not recognize any limit or boundary... Salaam. Only liked to recommend a reading if you missed that. The book by Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi called Sexual Problems of the Youth on sex and marriage. Read it online (or download from here). Wassalaam

In The Name of Allah ÓÈÍÇäå æÊÚÇáì, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful. Assalamualaykum wa RAHMATULLAHI WA BARAKATOH. I hope you are all in the best of health and, more importantly, Faith (Imaan). Although I know that the authenticity of the book in question, itself, is disputed but I have heard many a times that this book mentions that there are 13 Imams. I have also heard from others that there is no such thing in the book which is, normally, shunned away by saying that the current version has been manipulated and that the older one did, actually, say that there are 13 Imams. I have read some of the book and I have found some indirect indications towards 13 Imams which I would like to share with everyone and get the views of the people about this isseu - from, both, those who support the book and those who reject it. NOTE: all the references I have given of the pages are ACCORDING TO THE PDF VERSION OF THE BOOK AS FOUND ON THE FOLLOWING LINK WHEN VIEWED IN ADOBE READER (take care to use only Adobe as other softwares may give different page numbers): http://www.scribd.com/doc/19799147/Kitab-Sulaim-Bin-Qais-Halali I am aware that an online copy (especially from a source as "public" as scribd) is not really the most credible way of giving a source to a book but, unfortunately, I don't know Arabic and cannot get the, official, hard copy English translation of the book and this was the only English translation I found online so, if anyone thinks that the actual book may be different or the translation is wrong, please feel free to correct me. Reference 1 Hadith 10, Kitab Sulaym bin Qays, page 42 says: “…I said: “O Prophet of Allah, please tell me their names.” He replied: “My this son (he kept his hand on Hassan’s (a.s) heard), then after him my this son (and he kept his hand on the head of Husayn (a.s)) and then my this son’s son (again he put his hand on Husayn’s (a.s) heard), then his son whose name will be same as mine, whose name will be Muhammad. He will spread my knowledge and he will be the treasurer of Allah’s Message and O my brother, Ali will be born soon during your life time so give him my salaam”. Then he turned to Husayn (a.s) and said: “Very soon Muhammad I Ali will be borne in your life time – give him my salaam”. Then, O brother, all 12 Imams in your children” (i.e. 12 imams including Ali (a.s).) Then I asked: “O Messenger of Allah, tell me the names of all.” So he (S.A.W) uttered the name of each one individually…” This Hadith would suggest that there are twelve Imams due to the fact that the Prophet (pbuh) is telling Imam Ali (as) that there are 12 Imams in his children which would, therefore, mean there are 13 Imams in total (refer to the red part in the text). Reference 2 Hadith 14, Kitab Sulaym bin Qays, page 75 says: “…Beware that Allah looked at the dwellers of the earth and He chose, me and then he looked again and He chose my brother Ali, my vizier. my successor, my caliph in my Ummah and the guardian of all faithfuls after me. So He made me a Prophet and Messenger and argument, and He sent Messages to me that I appoint Ali my brother, my trustee, my successor and my caliph in my Ummah after me. Beware, he is the guardian of every faithful after me. Whoever keeps him friend, Allah will keep him friend, whoever bears enmity towards him, Allah will bear enmity towards him. Whoever loves him, Allah also will love him and whoever hates him, Allah will hate him. Only a faithful will love him and only a non-believer will hate him. He is, after me the Rabb of the earth and the dwellers of the earth and is Allah's kalimah taqwa and is the strong rope of Allah. Do you want to switch off the light of Allah with your mouth, though Allah is the Completor of His Light - the idolaters may not like it. The enemies of Allah want to diminish the light of my brother and Allah wants to complete this Noor. O people, those of you who are present, pass this sermon to those who are not present. O Allah You be a Witness on all these O people, Allah looked the third time, then after me. He chose my twelve successors from my ahlulbayt and these are all righteous people of my Ummah. In there, there are eleven Imams after my brother one by one. When one of them passes away the other one from them takes his place. Their example is like stars in the sky - when one star disappears the other rises because they are those Imams who guide and are guided and those who cheat them, their cheating does not effect them, and those that stop helping them, their stopping does not harm them. These are all Allah's authority on His earth and are witness over His creation. Whoever obeys them has obeyed Allah. Whoever disobeys them has disobeyed Allah. These are all with Quran and Quran is with them. They will not separate from Quran and Quran will not separate from them until they reach my Fountain.” The notion of twelve Imams comes from the fact that Allah (SWT) has already looked in the second time and chosen Imam Ali (peace be upon him) and then, in the third time, he chooses the “twelve successors” which would suggest that, since Imam Ali (peace be upon him) was already chosen in the second look, there are twelve more successors; 13 Imams in total. I am looking forward to what you people have to say about this. May Allah (SWT) bless us all, our families and loved ones, guide us all to The Straight Path with His Perfect Guidance and may He, The Forgiver of Sins and The Oft-Forgiving, forgive all our sins for, indeed, there is neither any refuge nor any respite except in Allah ÓÈÍÇäå æÊÚÇáì.
