Soft cover. Condition: As New. First Edition. 42 pp. English text + 44 pp. Arabic text. Al-Furqan Islamic Heritage Foundation, Lecture Series No. 6. Copy in mint condition. It is probably difficult to encompass the entire sphere of cookery and cuisine throughout the history of Islamic civilisation. The landscape is vast, the actors are countless and their tastes endlessly varied; the nature of the land is uneven and its bounty uncertain and irregular, with abundance and scarcity locked in perpetual rivalry. This relatively brief talk will not even attempt a rough outline of the subject of food, cookery and dining in the Muslim world; this paper is to present a preliminary framework for a research project that would deal with all elements related, directly and indirectly, to the culture of food. Arab-Islamic civilisation has bequeathed many a document on the subject. The research should embrace broader and more remote topics such as agriculture, the source of food provided by the land, the organised trade that brought rare spices from eastern Asia to the Arab world along established land and sea routes, tableware and its manufacture from different kinds of wood, copper and pottery and the identification of the properties of individual plants and spices used in medicine and food.

'According to Muhammad Salih al-Mahdi, music as part of Islamic civilisation has a special character distinguishing it from the music of other civilisations throughout history. It represents the epitome of what is best in all the people and nations which adopted Islam as their faith. For Islam was open to all cultures and their arts provided they had no connection with paganism and did not violate the basic precepts of the faith, especially that of the oneness of God. Islam cherishes good taste and beautiful voices and the Prophet himself listened to and praised the beauty of the voice of Abu Musį al-Ashari, especially in reciting the Qur an.'.

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 61 pages in Arabic. In his lecture, Dr Bashar Awwad Marouf explains the concept of critical edition of texts as a discipline, aimed at the production of a text as left by the author, and of which he approved at the end of his life. He then explored the view that the aim of critical edition is the production of a correct text without the need for any commentary, only emendation. He then addressed the contrasting view that considers commentary as essential, and indeed, some workers went to the extreme by saying: [the editor must] comment on everything. Our lecturer explained the error of both views, and summed up with the correct intermediate way, where the editor compares and grades the text copies, records the key reading variants, highlights the resources used by the author, and documents the quotes from the respective sources. In this lecture, Dr Bashar also debated the view postulating that critical edition is exclusively when there are several copies to allow collation, which in his view is not correct. He highlighted those books that had been critically edited - based on one copy - by eminent scholars and editors, such as Shaykh Aḥmad Shākir and his brother, Maḥmūd Shākir, where no researcher has ever claimed that such works are not critical editions. Furthermore, he explained in detail the difference between critical editing and commentary; critical editing being text emendation, and employing the means towards achieving that, while commentary describes how the editor may actually emend the text. He also drew attention to matters that must be taken into consideration in edition: Text uniformity: the editor follows the rules of modern writing, in the division of text into paragraphs and sections, and introduces numbering, and other elements of text organisation. Indicating the author s resources: if the author s sources can be identified, the editor must compare them with what the author presents. Verifying challenging names and genealogies: by referring back to the authoritative books, such as Al-Ikmālby Ibn Mākūwlā, and Tawđīħ al-Mushtabih by Ibn Nāṣir al-Dīn, which are among the most important books of this art.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 43 pages ; 20 cm in Arabic. 'This lecture aims to explore a very important issue regarding the awareness of beauty as a universal concept which manifests itself in different ways, as well as from within the perspective of the philosophy of Islamic law (Maqasid). The topic was delivered in an interesting and engaging way, where the philological definition of beauty was followed by the presentation of the evidences of the origin of the concept of beauty and its location within the Qur'anic perspective - since God is beautiful and loves beauty - and that our religion commends beauty as a duty and aspiration in terms of doing and being. Dr Esam El-Bashir proceeded to explain the foundations of the Maqasid-based perspective on beauty; indeed, beauty is an all-inclusive concept addressing all areas and aspects of life. Moreover, it represents an absolute value, and is connected to values, in relation to the unity between outer and inner self.'.

Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 84 pages in Arabic. This important and engaging lecture focused on a highly significant issue centred on the most important objective in the Noble Qur'an. The lecture was delivered by Professor Mohamed Salim El-Awa as part of the proceedings of the 2nd training course on The objectives of the Noble Qur'an held in Mohammedia (Morocco) on 4-5 May 2016 (26-27 Rajab 1437H). The course was jointly organised by the Centre for the Study of the Philosophy of Islamic Law (London), the Maqasid Research & Studies Centre (Rabat), and the Department of Islamic Studies, Faculty of Letters & Humanities in Mohammedia. The content of this coherent lecture, addressing a topic of singular importance, includes a comprehensive definition of justice, justice from the Qur'an text, achieving justice through prohibition of injustice, justice in the stories and parables within the Qur an, and justice according to the learned scholars. Despite the time restrictions of the course programme, Professor El-Awa skilfully presented the key elements of the topic, and discussed the different facets. He did the topic justice, presenting it in a systematic and consistent formulation, both organised and robust; a clear indication of a massive scientific effort.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. 58 pages : illustrations ; 20 cm. The book at hand focuses on the importance of scientific commentaries, especially manuscripts on astronomy, authored between the thirteenth and the sixteenth century. Dr Saliba demonstrates that particular commentaries were distinguished by the introduction of new scientific thinking, and also a level of astronomical mathematical sophistication that outmatched any of the earlier works that were produced within the Islamic civilisation, and, in some instances, even surpassed the contemporary scientific works that were produced in Europe at the time. Dr Saliba attributes the lack of scholarly attention to late scientific commentaries to a number of reasons, most prominently: the difficulty in reading late commentaries, absence of explanatory illustrations, and a perpetuated misconception that following the classical or golden age of Islam, there was nothing worth studying in terms of cultural output.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 70 p. ; 21 cm. in Arabic. This lecture focuses in brief on the history of the critical editing of Islamic manuscripts, to include present and future research, with particular attention given to works conducted by orientalists. In this book the author highlights the skills of an editor involved in critically editing a manuscript. He also lists the most important characteristics required of a professional editor. The author explains the methodology used by orientalists in their criticism of Arabic texts. The methods used by scholars of Az'har in critically editing manuscripts are also presented. The book addresses a number of areas related to the field, such as the main problems faced by practitioners, how to work with a manuscript, and technical issues such as when to bring out draft sections of a text when the corrected version is present . The book emphasises the importance of ijazat (licences), sama'at (verified listening), tamalluk notes (noted ownership of the manuscript), waqf (endowments) and the knowledge of the terminology involved in critically editing. The author also discusses the historical relationship between the printing press and critical editing. This includes a look at how the widespread use of paper and the progress in printing effected book publication. The author also makes an acknowledgement of the substantial contribution of orientalists to the field in critically editing Arabic texts.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 71 pages : illustrations ; 20 cm. In English with some Arabic. This lecture took place in London, on 23rd November 2015, and resonated with the news that materialised earlier that year about the discovery of some fragments of Qur an kept at the Mingana Collection in the Birmingham University Library. The assertion that the document - kept at Birmingham University - is part of one of the world s oldest copies of the Qur an, was strongly disputed by many scholars in the field of codicology and palaeography, who pointed out that the science of carbon dating is contradicted by other evidence. Among these scholars was Professor Qasim Al-Samarrai, Professor Emeritus of Palaeography and Codicology. Professor Al-Samarrai s immediate reaction - after the news spread about the Birmingham fragments - was: The fragments of the Qur an folios that were found at Birmingham are not at all what they are claimed to be. They in fact belong to the end of the 2nd and the beginning of the 3rd century AH (after Hijrah), if not later. All the features in them: the script, dotting, use of gold and red ink, as well as the separation of verses (Ayat) and chapters (Suwar).etc., indicate that they might have been written on parchments older than the script. Therefore, they are not as early as thought. Surprisingly enough, Berlin and Tubingen claim the same with their own fragments." In this lecture, Professor Al-Samarrai gives a detailed insight on the Birmingham folios, with a special focus on Qur anic manuscripts palaeographical aspects in general, the accuracy of carbon dating tests, the Uthman copies of the Qur an, as well as other aspects related to this topic.
