Understanding Salafism: Seeking the Path of the Pious Predecessors by Dr. Yasir Qadhi- H/C
Salafism, a name that stirs tension and invokes a sense of unease in the global consciousness, is often viewed as the embodiment of extremism. To outsiders, the term evokes images of rigid dogma, a hostile rejection of modernity, and a desire to impose a singular, uncompromising worldview. Yet, for those who claim the title of Salafi, it represents much more than this. It is a fiercely defended identity, one that constantly stands at the precipice of dilution and misrepresentation, even within its own ranks. But what is Salafism truly? How did it evolve from the earliest theological debates in Islam to become the powerful force it is today? In Understanding Salafism, Dr. Yasir Qadhi embarks on a thought-provoking journey to unpack the historical, theological, and cultural dimensions of this often-misunderstood movement. He explores its origins, tracing its intellectual roots back to the formative discussions of Islam, and delves into how its ideas have spread far beyond its own boundaries, influencing Muslim communities from the Middle East to Europe, the United States, and Africa. Salafism, often reduced to mere caricatures in mainstream media, is far more complex. Dr. Qadhi's analysis provides an in-depth look at the theological core of Salafi thought, offering insight into its foundational principles. He navigates the intra-Salafi debates on political participation and governance, shedding light on the differences within the movement itself, from radical factions to more moderate voices. Salafism’s relationship with other Sunni schools of thought, its nuanced understanding of authority, and its intricate engagement with modernity are carefully examined to provide a fuller picture of a movement that has reshaped contemporary Islam. In a world that frequently distills Salafism into simple stereotypes, Understanding Salafism offers a much-needed corrective—an opportunity to view the movement through a lens that is both critical and compassionate, exploring its intellectual heritage and contemporary relevance.

Adorning Knowledge with Actions by Husayn al-Awaayishah
I felt I should hasten in bringing forward the hadeeth: “The two feet of the son of Aadam will not move from near his Lord on the Day of Judgement until he is asked about five (matters): about his life - how he spent it; about his youth - how he took care of it; about his wealth - how he earned it; and where he spent it; and about that which he acted upon from the knowledge that he acquired,” as an aid towards purification of the soul and preparation for death. The advice being firstly to myself, secondly to the du’aat (inviters to Allaah’s path) and thirdly to all my Muslim brothers in every part of the world - hoping that Allaah will cause benefit through that which I have written and allow the fruits of that to be reaped, both now and in the future. In this treatise I restricted myself to one part of the hadeeth and that is “...and about that which he acted upon from the knowledge that he acquired.

The Ill Effects of Sins by Shaikh Ibn al-Uthaymeen
This short essay is adopted from a sermon that was delivered by the author. In it the Sheikh discusses the seriousness of committing sins and the effects that they have upon us. He highlights the point that every time a disaster strikes us we are quick to conclude that it was due to political, economic or some other materialistic reason. However the author very clearly suggests that we aught to look towards our own sins first, since calamities befall us as a result of them. Plenty of verses are quoted from the Qur’an to substantiate this argument. Pages: 24

The Islamic Awakening by Shaykh Muhammad bin Salih Al-Uthaymin
The Muslim Nation today is experiencing a blessed awakening in all aspects of its affairs, one that has been aroused by the efforts of Muslims throughout the globe. This is despite the onslaught of the disbelievers against Islam whether that be military or through their powerful media apparatus. In these often difficult times, we find many Muslims returning to their Din and embracing it with vigour and enthusiasm. However the astute observer will find that there are many problems that hinder its progress, problems that have caused some of the scholars to lay down some guidelines that the youth of this blessed awakening should adhere to and follow. It should also be noted that if the Islamic guidelines are not strictly adhered to, and the youth are left to be driven by their emotions alone, then surely this awakening will result in destroying more than it will build!

Etiquettes of The Carriers of Quran by Imam al-Nawawi
A classic work (composed by the illustrious Imam al-Nawawi) on the etiquette that a Muslim should have with regard to handling, teaching, studying, respecting and reciting the Quran. The topics this volume raises include: ritual cleanliness, opportune times for recitation, the etiquette that students have with their teachers (and that teachers must have with their students), and a variety of other issues that every Muslim should know and often ask about. Designed and written to explain to men and women how best to benefit from the Book of Allah. The blessing of the Qur'an is that whoever recites it as it should be recited is changed by it, and brought by imperceptible degrees to see why everything is the way it is…. It is well known to everyone familiar with the Islamic disciplines that the learning of many things does not teach wisdom, and that traditional books do not reveal their secrets or bestow their benefits to those without the key to them. This key is adab, the 'right way of doing things' rendered in the title as “etiquette.”… Books, especially sacred ones, give their knowledge to those of adab. 446 Pages
