Die Reisen des Ibn Battuta. Band 1
Auf 120 000 Kilometer hat man die gesamte Reisestrecke geschätzt, die Ibn Battuta im 14. Jahrhundert zu Pferd und Kamel, zu Schiff, im Ochsenwagen und in der Sänfte zurücklegte. Siebenundzwanzig Jahre lang reiste der Marokkaner bis an die Grenzen der damals bekannten Welt. Er lernte Heilige und Wandermönche, Könige, Sultane und Despoten in den entlegensten Teilen der muslimischen Reiche kennen, während er die heiligen Stätten des Islam besuchte: Bagdad, Mekka, Kairo und Damaskus, aber auch Indien, die Malediven und China sind seine Stationen. Nach einem kurzen Besuch Spaniens und einer zweijährigen Reise nach Mali und Niger legte der rastlos Reisende den Wanderstab endgültig zur Seite.

Der erste Band führt den Leser über Ägypten, Syrien und Persien weiter bis Südrußland, nach Konstantinopel und schließlich von der Wolga an den Indus.

Almost unique among the works of Muslim scholars, this book, which for Malikis is THE Risalah, was written for children when the author was 17 years old. The sheer pedagogical audacity of introducing children to what is in effect a complete overview of life and human society escapes most people and most Muslims today. The author commences with usul ad-deen - the roots of the deen - a survey of the vital Muslim worldview, proceeding then through purification and the acts of 'ibadah, the ordinary transactions such as marriage, divorce, buying and selling and so forth, and concluding with chapters of a general and miscellaneous nature. The book is here matched by the outstanding lucidity of the...
UMAR IBN AL-KHATTAB
This is a biography of one of the greatest Caliphs of the Islamic epoch.The well known author Moin Qazi describes the vast range of his noble qualitiesIn the seventh century, the envoy of the Roman Emperor set out for Medinah, accompanied by a large entourage, flaunting the pageantry of adornments for which the Roman Empire was famous. On arrival in the metropolis of Islam, he enquired from a passer-by: “Tell me please, where is the palace of the Caliph?” The Arab looked around and was confused by the absence of any sign of royalty. He was amazed and prompted by a curious emotional thought. He hinted to the Arab commoner, “What do you mean by a palace?” retorted the Arab.” I mean t...
