Terror in the Mind of God
Completely revised and updated, this new edition of Terror in the Mind of God incorporates the events of September 11, 2001 into Mark Juergensmeyer's landmark study of religious terrorism. Juergensmeyer explores the 1993 World Trade Center explosion, Hamas suicide bombings, the Tokyo subway nerve gas attack, and the killing of abortion clinic doctors in the United States. His personal interviews with 1993 World Trade Center bomber Mahmud Abouhalima, Christian Right activist Mike Bray, Hamas leaders Sheik Yassin and Abdul Azis Rantisi, and Sikh political leader Simranjit Singh Mann, among others, take us into the mindset of those who perpetrate and support violence in the name of religion.

The Tao of Islam
The Tao of Islam is a rich and diverse anthology of Islamic teachings on the nature of the relationships between God and the world, the world and the human being, and the human being and God. Focusing on gender symbolism, Sachiko Murata shows that Muslim authors frequently analyze the divine reality and its connections with the cosmic and human domains with a view toward a complementarity or polarity of principles that is analogous to the Chinese idea of yin/yang. Murata believes that the unity of Islamic thought is found, not so much in the ideas discussed, as in the types of relationships that are set up among realities. She pays particular attention to the views of various figures commonly known as "Sufis" and "philosophers," since they approach these topics with a flexibility and subtlety not found in other schools of thought. She translates several hundred pages, most for the first time, from more than thirty important Muslims including the Ikhwan al-Safa', Avicenna, and Ibn al-'Arabi.
100 Pesan Nabi untuk Wanita
Wanita shalihah adalah dambaan Tuhan sekaligus pujaan hati pria pilihan. Wajahnya memancarkan cahaya kebajikan, akhlaknya menyejukkan hati semua orang, dan sifat-sifatnya mengangumkan para malaikat di atas awan. Jika telah menikah, ia akan melayani suaminya dengan penuh perhatian, cinta, dan kasih sayang. Hatinya begitu suci dari mengkhianati sang suami. Jika memiliki anak, ia akan merawat dan mengasuhnya dengan kasih sejati serta mendidiknya dengan akhlak mulia. Itulah sebaik-baik perbendaharaan dunia! Bagaimanapun, budaya modern yang glamour dan hedonis acap kali menjebak kaum wanita pada sikap mementingkan diri sendiri dan abai terhadap tugas-tugas dan kewajibannya yang mulia. Mereka pun kehilangan arah untuk meniti jalan hidup rabbani yang diridhai Allah. Di sinilah mereka butuh semacam pegangan, penuntun, dan nasihat bijak yang mampu menggerakkan mereka untuk mewujudkan amalan-amalan teladan. Buku ini mengajak kaum wanita untuk selalu memperindah akhlaknya melalui amalan-amalan teladan tersebut. Selamat membaca! [Mizan, Mizania, Religion, Agama, Indonesia]
