The Princeton Encyclopedia of Islamic Political Thought
"In 2012, the year 1433 of the Muslim calendar, the Islamic population throughout the world was estimated at approximately a billion and a half, representing about one-fifth of humanity. In geographical terms, Islam occupies the center of the world, stretching like a big belt across the globe from east to west."--P. vii.

The Monumental Inscriptions from Early Islamic Iran and Transoxiana
Inscriptions on buildings are a distinctive feature of Islamic architecture, and this book studies the 79 surviving monumental inscriptions in the Iranian world from the first five centuries of the Muslim era (A.D. 622-1106), the period in which all the major trends of monumental epigraphy in the area were set. These foundation, commemorative, and funerary texts come from the region between Iraq and Soviet Central Asia. Written primarily in Arabic, they embellished architectural monuments and furnishings whose nature implies the construction of major buildings. An extended introduction discusses such general topics as titulature, patronage, and stylistic development. Each text is then presented individually with photographs, drawings, transcriptions, translations and an extensive commentary, which presents the inscription in its larger palaeographic and historical contexts.
Ne Akilem Ne Divane: Anadolu Bilgeliği Üzerine Felsefi Düşünümler
Dünyanın çeşitli yerlerindeki farklı bilgelik gelenekleri felsefeyle ilişkilendirilebilir mi? Önemini koruyan bu sorunun farklı cevapları bulunmaktadır. Diğer taraftan tüm kültürlerin bütüncül bir yaklaşımla ve felsefi bir bakışla ele alınması gayet mümkündür. Birçok medeniyete beşik olan ve içerisinden filozoflar çıkaran Anadolu, felsefi yaklaşımlarla değerlendirilebilecek bilge ozanların ve dervişlerin de yurdu olduğundan oldukça bereketli bir sahadır. Bu kitap, Anadolu bilgeliğinin izlerini farklı disiplinlere ve bakış açılarına da müracaat ederek genellikle felsefi bir perspektiften sürmektedir. Felsefeyle özdeşlik kurmak ya da mukayese etmekten ziyade, Anadolu bilgeliğini felsefeyle bir arada ele almakta ya da felsefi perspektife açmaktadır. Böylece bu bilgeliğin tadımlık ve yeni yaklaşımlara vesile olabilecek bir seyrini okuyucuya sunmaktadır.
Literary Structures of Religious Meaning in the Qu'ran
This volume studies how the literary elements in the Qur'an function in conveying its religious message effectively. It is divided into three parts. Part one includes studies of the whole Qur'an or large segments of it belonging to one historical period of its revelation; these studies concentrate on the analysis of its language, its style, its structural composition, its aesthetic characteristics, its rhetorical devices, its imagery, and the impact of these elements and their significance. Part two includes studies on individual suras of the Qur'an, each of which focuses on the sura's literary elements and how they produce meaning; each also explores the structure of this meaning and the coherence of its effect. Part three includes studies on Muslim appreciations of the literary aspects of the Qur'an in past generations and shows how modern linguistic, semantic, semiotic, and literary scholarship can add to their contributions.

PEACE MOVEMENTS IN ISLAM
Dalam perspektif Barat, pandangan mengenai Islam seringkali terdistorsi sebagai sebuah ajaran yang mengedepankan kekerasan. Demi menandingi stereotype semacam itu, terdapat sederet organisasi dan tokoh Muslim yang telah bekerja keras untuk proses rekonsiliasi sepanjang sejarah. Al-Qur'an, kitab suci umat Islam, justru penuh dengan ayat-ayat perdamaian yang mengutamakan pembalasan kejahatan dengan mendoakan kedamaian bagi para pengganggu. Porsi mengenai ini justru lebih dominan dibandingkan dengan ayat-ayat tentang perang yang kerap disalahtafsirkan. Buku ini akan mengisi lubang menganga dalam literatur tentang gerakan perdamaian global, bahwa ada banyak sekali gerakan perdamaian dan pembawa damai di dunia Muslim.
