"The Prophet's Miracles" is a selection from Ibn Kathir's al-Bidayah wan-Nihaya. During his preaching, the Prophet was often called upon to demonstrate miracles. And, he did oblige those who demanded like the splitting of the moon. However, certain miracles were part of his mission like the Quran. Allah revealed it to him and it is a lasting miracle till the end of the world. Then, there are so many things that he said will happen as also the signs of the Last Day.... We see many of them coming true as others will take place. Miracles of other Prophets have also been narrated. At the same time, Ibn Kathir (RA) has sifted the fabricated accounts which have found themselves in books of Sirah.

A new amazing serious of childrens illustrated books, the book is easy to read and follow with pictures for little children to enjoy and learn about they beloved prophet.

The Prophet's Night Journey And Ascent Into Heaven. `Abd-Allah Hajjaj has compiled from al-Fath al-Bari a selection of Hadith on the Isra', the Prophet Muhammad's (S) Night-Journey from the Kab' ah in Makkah to Bayt al-Maqdis - Jerusalem, and the Mi'raj, the Prophet Muhammad's (S) ascension to heaven. This selection of Hadith takes us from Makkah to Jerusalem then up to the seven heavens, to the meetings with previous prophets and shows us the wonders of Paradise. The Isra' and Mi'raj are of great importance to all Muslims, for this is when Allah commanded the five daily prayers, one of the five pillars of Islam. Also Prophet Muhammad (S) leading all the other prophets in prayer shows that Islam is the fulfilment and perfection of mankind's religious development, and that he was the last and greatest of Allah's Messengers.

War and Peace in the Life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), seeks to bring into sharper focus the relevance of the Prophet's exemplary life in our times. In doing so, the misperception is allayed that Islam is inextricably linked with violence. That Islam preaches and practises the ideals of peaceful coexistence and freedom of faith is brought home with reference to the elucidation of the Quranic verses which allow Muslims to wage war, if necessary. The same truth is illustrated by analyzing the Prophet's conduct in war and his measures for ensuring peace. All the major battles in the early history of Islam are studied in the wider context of Islamic teachings on war and peace . Zakaria Bashier (b. 1940) obtained his BA and M.Litt. in Philosophy from the Universitites of Khartoum, Sudan and Durham, UK respectively, and his PhD on Islamic Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh, USA. Apart from holding faculty positions at the universities of Sudan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, he had also been the Vice Chancellor of the University of Juba, Sudan. Presently he is Visiting Professor at the Markfield Institute of Higher Education, Leicester, UK.
