The Book of Great Quotes
Throughout the centuries, the world has come to know some great leaders who have been revered as shapers and makers of civilisation. Many of them have been celebrated, whilst others have been forgotten, and some, for one reason or another, have been overlooked. The leaders profiled within this book occupy that last category. Although they did not build palaces or auhtor extensive literary works, their legacies are considered to be unique in islamic history. Inspired by the message of their teacher, Prophet Muhammad (s), to this day they continue to enrich and influence the lives of millions across the world. These great polymaths are known as the first four caliphs of Islam. They include Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, Umar bin Al-Khattab, Uthman bin Affan and Ali ibn Abi Talib (ra). Flamur Vehapi's work brings together some of the most inspirational quotes from that era. They are sure to motivate and capture the hearts of Muslims everywhere.
Verses of the Heart
Flamur Vehapi's work draws on the venerable tradition of Albanian poetry, one that links a bold directness of speech with a sweetness of cadence and an adroit turn of phrase. Informed by Persian and Turkish sensibilities, this tradition comfortably marries spiritual longing and religious identity with the highest aesthetic experience. Vehapi's poetry, in its style and idiom, recalls Albania's national poet Naim Frashëri as well as more recent voices like Arian Leka. However, these are poems written in English, drawing their music from the sounds, rhythms, and cadences of the English language, but in Vehapi's capable hands, such elements are shaped through a poetic practice that infuses his lyrics with a unique and refreshing expressiveness. -David Jalajel, poet and author of "A Short History of the Ghazal"
Ertugrul Ghazi
The story of the obscure figure of Ertugrul and his tribe came to life for most people with the popular Turkish TV series 'Resurrection: Ertugrul.' Now, for the first time, Flamur offers us a scholarly insight into the historical persona of Ertugrul, the father of Osman (founder of the Ottoman dynasty that ruled an empire for more than six hundred years). Separating facts from fiction, this work provides the reader with a concise biography of this oft-forgotten Turkic leader and the Kayi tribe who gave rise to a global empire.
Reenvisioning Peacebuilding and Conflict Resolution in Islam
Reenvisioning Peacebuilding and Conflict Resolution in Islam examines the variety of strategic peacebuilding and conflict resolution activities conducted by Muslim practitioners and nongovernmental organizations in Muslim-majority communities. Qamar-ul Huda explores ways that Muslim scholars, civil society members, and communities interpret violence and nonviolence, peacebuilding, and conflict resolution in an interconnected globalized age, focusing on methods, practices, and strategies. He shows how a faith-based commitment can empower effective social, political, and intellectual action that results in meaningful change. The book sheds light on a variety of vital topics, including how the state utilizes hard and soft power in global, religious diplomacy; ways in which civil society organizations and NGOs maximize networks to engage in peacebuilding and conflict resolution; the role of civil society in soft power politics; and how some peacebuilding organizations are out of step with local Muslim cultures & religious customs, and why that matters. Qamar-ul Huda charts a vision of contemporary ethics of peacebuilding, pluralism, reconciliation, and dialogue.
