GUIDANCE TO THE CHRISTIAN, JULIAN AND GREGORIAN CALENDARS (The world in your hand) 01/01/01 - 01/01/4041 A.D
As a Muslim, a Ghanaian and an African, I dedicate this book to the entire Muslims of the world wherever they are, the entire Ghanaians wherever they found themselves, the entire Africans wherever they are in the world, my father Alhaji Yakubu Bamba, who passed away in 1962 in Madinah Saudi Arabia, my mother Mma Adamah who passed away in 1968, to my youngest son, Abdul-Mannan who passed away when I was deeply writing this noble book on Thursday night of 21st July, 2011 at 9:00pm after only 8 months, 5 days in this world and all my family members, the (Bamba family) wherever they may be. Hoping that they will be proud to have such a great writer in their family who did a good job for the world, which would be remembered for-ever.

The second part analyses contemporary debates on infaq, sadaqa, waqf and zakat as well as Islamic banking and micro-finance schemes for promoting social welfare among Muslim communities in Ghana.
