The Passion of Al-Hallaj

Abridged from the four-volume "The Passion of al-Hallaj, " one of the major works of Western orientalism, this book explores the life and teaching of a famous tenth-century Sufi mystic and martyr, and in so doing describes not only his experience but also the whole milieu of early Islamic civilization. Louis Massignon (1883-1962), France's most celebrated Islamic specialist in this century and a leading Catholic intellectual, wrote of a man who was for him a personal inspiration. -- Back cover.

The History of al-Ṭabarī Vol. 1

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.

Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca) is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and a very important but a complicated type of Ibadah (worship) as Mus-lims from all around the world get together to perform it together. They follow the interpretation of their Imams (jurists), so sometimes they look at others when they do not perform a specific virtue the way they do, then they think they are doing wrong, which is not so, but all of them are performing correctly according to the interpretation of their Imams. This book gives all these details in sequence according to all four imams the Muslim Ummah follows.
