This book is a humble essay on some topics in Islamic law. It is divided into two main parts. The first part presents some legal studies carried out by a jurist in Islamic commercial law. The second part takes up land law in the Ottoman Empire. Nonetheless, we should admit that one of the most obvious features of the Ottoman Empire was its wide territory and characteristics of its administration. The Ottoman Empire lasted for more than 600 years and extended across three continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe. Economically, this worlwide empire, known as the “Pact Ottomana” is important for the Ottoman treasury. The land law of the Ottoman Empire can be a model for Islamic countries today, both with respect to administration and economics (the latter is very important). These countries should adopt the land system of the Ottoman Empire, and this book will elucidate the main justifications and reasons for this claim.
An extensive manual describing the Hajj?a journey that enlightens the significance of human existence and submission?this guidebook offers advice for those undertaking the holy voyage and gives the meanings behind its rituals.

Offering a perspective of the world as an arena of assessment and testing, this masterfully illuminating investigation explores the struggle between man and his archenemy, Satan. The book claims that success in life is based on knowing one?s enemies and developing strategies. Discussing the attributes of Satan and his methods of approach, this study references Satan?s most obvious trait?his declaration of war on humankind?and notes that his deception, whispers, trickery, and diabolical plots can only be effective when human beings display weakness. The only traditional prevention is to lead a pious life without leaving any gaps for the attacks of Satan and his aids, but this examination presents another prescription for protection from Satan?s evil?becoming spiritually equipped by attaining inner and outer unity and attaining cohesion between one?s heart and actions.

The characters Gog and Magog are well-known characters in all religious beliefs, albeit with different names. But the widest knowledge about them is found in the Islamic faith. In the Islamic faith, their names are Yecuc and Mecuc. Information about them is given in two suras of the last holy book, the Quran. In addition, the words of the last prophet Muhammad about them also give us information. However, both the verses in the Quran about them and what the Prophet Muhammad said do not contain clear information about who or what they are. Many books have been written to date about who they may be. However, there is no information in these books that goes beyond mythological stories. In this ...

Eskiler, “İlim, lügat demektir” derlerdi. Bir ilmi anlamak için, o ilme ait tabirleri bilmek icab eder. Dinî metinler doğru anlaşılmadığı takdirde, yerini bâtıl ve hurâfeler alır. Dinini doğru öğrenmek ise, her müminin hakkı ve vazifesidir. İşte Dinî Lügat, bu ihtiyaca cevap vermek üzere hazırlanmıştır.
