Struggle for Justice
STRUGGLE FOR JUSTICE is the story of a courageous woman, Dr. Wan Azizah Wan Ismail of Malaysia. The mother of six children. A medical doctor. And the wife of the man who was destined to become Malaysia's Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim. On one fateful night in 1998, Azizah's life changed forever. Government forces took her husband away at gunpoint and beat him nearly to death. Azizah was thrust into a new role as opposition political leader and living symbol of the call for freedom and justice in her beloved land. Threatened with arrest and thwarted repeatedly in her attempts to speak to the Malaysian people, Azizah persevered in a six-year struggle to free her husband. Through it all, Azizah continued to be a loving mother to her young children and a supportive wife to her husband, who was sentenced to 15 years in prison in trials whose fairness was condemned by governments and human rights groups around the world. While many journalists and scholars have written about Malaysia's recent political crisis, Struggle for Justice is the first account that tells this dramatic story from the perspective of an amazing woman, Dr. Wan Azizah.
The Vampire Azizah
Azizah Ismail was born in Mogadishu, Somalia, in 1809, to a Somali father, Darod Clan leader Mohamed Ismail, and a Berber mother, Amina Ali. In 1828, the Geledi Sultan sent the Warsangali war party, led by the ruthless Omar Garimarro, against the Ismail family. The fearsome warrior turned out to be a Vampire, and he turned Azizah into one of the Undead. After slaying Garimarro, Azizah wandered the world, fighting evil and protecting the innocent. The Supreme Council of the Vampire Community wants her dead. Her only ally is Dr. Jayson Hawthorne, a handsome physician whom she saves from fascists one night in Washington D.C. Hunted by the Living and the Undead, Azizah and Hawthorne find themselves reluctant allies, and perhaps much more. Can this unlikely alliance save them from their enemies ?
Slave of Desire
"Slave of Desire, through its analyses of various stories, reveals The 1001 Nights to be a very different sort of work, a sophisticated and subtle piece of literature that can provoke and disturb as much as it entertains and amuses.
Misteri Telaga Tum Bratma
Air yang hitam pekat dan berbau hanyir terpercik ke muka. Tidak sempat mengelak, Salihin jatuh tersungkur ke dalam telaga. Terkapai-kapai diselubungi kehitaman berbau hanyir, rasa gatal merayap ke seluruh tubuh Salihin yang lencun. Rohnya terasa melayang keluar. Melayang... dan terus melayang... Satu demi satu misteri melanda Salihin. Bermula dengan gangguan mimpi aneh, kemudian penyakit gatal yang menyerang tiba-tiba dan langsung tidak mahu sembuh. Lebih pelik, dia dikatakan menghidap kidal atau sakat, penyakit turun-temurun. Penyakit yang menyebabkannya hilang pekerjaan, hilang tumpuan, hilang harga diri, dan mungkin... hilang nyawa! Akan tetapi, apa kaitannya dengan Tum Bratma, telaga yang dikatakan misteri itu? Apa kaitannya dengan Azizah? Adakah semuanya tahyul belaka, atau secara kebetulan? Atau sememangnya ada misteri di sebaliknya?

Managing Marital Disputes in Malaysia
A trend found in many Islamic societies in recent years has been the increasing regulation of family life by Islamic law and a corresponding move away from customary law and informal conflict resolution procedures. The situation in Malaysia, particularly in urban Malay society, is no exception here. Several studies already exist of the nature and extent of Malaysia's Islamic judicial system but the general tendency has been to ignore the actual operation of the syariah courts and related institutions. This study addresses this need with an in-depth analysis of the key area of intra-family conflict and demonstrates that, although formally the counsellor, kadi and judge have defined roles for conflict resolution, in practice much flexibility is evident in the use of consultation, conciliation, mediation, arbitration and adjudication techniques. This study will be of special interest to legal anthropologists and those scholars interested in the increasing application of Islamic law in many different countries.
