Mimpi sering kali dianggap sebagai kembang tidur yang tak bermakna. Lebih jauh lagi, mimpi sering kali dianggap khayalan semata. Padahal secara sains, bermimpi adalah proses berpikir dan sebenarnya merupakan lanjutan dari pikiran kita sepanjang hari. Semua yang kita pikirkan ternyata tidak berhenti meskipun kita tertidur. Dalam literatur klasik Islam, mimpi memiliki makna-makna tertentu. Ibnu Sirin, misalnya, menulis kitab tentang tafsir mimpi. Sejumlah kitab klasik juga menceritakan pertemuan melalui mimpi antara seseorang dengan orang yang telah meninggal, senyata ketika masih hidup. Di dalamnya ada percakapan, cerita, dan nasihat dari orang yang telah mati kepada orang yang bermimpi. Buku ini mengungkapkan kabar-kabar rahasia dari alam kubur, yang dinukil dari khazanah kitab klasik Islam. Di dalamnya, kita dapat menyimak cerita-cerita di alam kubur dan akhirat, juga nasihat dan pesan dari para sahabat Nabi, tabiin, dan ulama yang telah wafat—yang muncul dalam mimpi orang-orang saleh. Ada kabar baik, ada pula kabar buruk, yang menjadi pelajaran untuk kita yang masih hidup agar bisa mempersiapkan diri sebelum ajal menjemput.

This third edition of the best-selling title Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence has been completely revised and substantially enlarged. In this work, Prof Kamali offers us the first detailed presentation available in English of the theory of Muslim law (usul al-fiqh). Often regarded as the most sophisticated of the traditional Islamic disciplines, Islamic Jurisprudence is concerned with the way in which the rituals and laws of religion are derived from the Qur'an and the Sunnah—the precedent of the Prophet. Written as a university textbook, Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence is distinguished by its clarity and readability; it is an essential reference work not only for students of Islamic law, but also for anyone with an interest in Muslim society or in issues of comparative Jurisprudence.
Volume I of the thirty-eight volume translation of Ṭabarī's great History begins with the creation of the world and ends with the time of Noah and the Flood. It not only brings a vast amount of speculation about the early history of mankind into sharp Muslim focus, but it also synchronizes ancient Iranian ideas about the prehistory of mankind with those inspired by the Qur'an and the Bible. The volume is thus an excellent guide to the cosmological views of many of Ṭabarī's contemporaries. The translator, Franz Rosenthal, one of the world's foremost scholars of Arabic, has also written an extensive introduction to the volume that presents all the facts known about Ṭabarī's personal a...
