Bukan proses mudah bagi seseorang yang sedang melalui fase lebih dekat dengan penciptanya. Fase di mana ia harus berjibaku dengan hawa nafsunya. Banyak rintangan yang harus dilalui dengan berbagai ujian dan cobaan dari-Nya. Kadar keimanan yang naik turun menjadi ujian terberat baginya. Orang yang melihatnya mungkin akan berkomentar, "Hidupmu belum seberapa", Namun bagi para penulis dalam buku ini, menjadi suatu pengalaman mendalam dan tak akan pernah dilupakan seumur hidupnya. Sedih, haru, serta bahagia mengiringi setiap episode kisahnya. Buku ini berkisah tentang perjuangan para penulis wanita yang selalu berproses menjadi pilihan pribadi yang dicintai oleh-Nya. Akankah ia terus melangkah dengan perubahannya? Ataukah menyerah begitu saja? Hanya tekad dalam dirinya. Serta rida Illahi yang menguatkannya.
Education has always been an important pursuit in Islam. The Prophet Muhammad enjoined his followers to “seek knowledge, even unto China.” Within the religion, educational theory and practice were founded on the work of itinerant teachers who taught the fundamental tenets of the faith in exchange for lodging and other services; Qur’anic schools where masters of the Qur’an tutored pupils; and centers of higher learning in Baghdad, Damascus, Alexandria and elsewhere, where Islamic theology and jurisprudence were developed and taught. In this volume, Bradley J. Cook, with assistance from Fathi H. Malkawi, has drawn together and introduced selections from the writings of eminent Islamic thinkers on the subject of Islamic educational efforts, presenting the original Arabic texts alongside their annotated English translations.

In the first detailed ethnography of India's surrogacy industry, Amrita Pande visits clinics and hostels and speaks with surrogates and their families, clients, doctors, brokers, and hostel matrons in order to shed light on this burgeoning business and the experiences of the laborers within it. From recruitment to training to delivery, Pande's research focuses on how reproduction meets production in surrogacy and how this reflects characteristics of India's larger labor...

I.B.Tauris in association with the Institute of Ismaili Studies This is the first English translation of the final philosophical work of the great eleventh-century Ismaili thinker, poet, and Fatimid emissary, N?sir-i Khusraw. Appointed from Cairo by command of the Fatimid Imam-caliph al-Mustansir to serve first as a d?'?, and then as the hujjat, for the entire region of Khur?s?n, he maintained his allegiance both to his mission and his Imam-caliph for the rest of his life, even when threatened and driven into exile.
