ABOUT THE BOOK: This is one of the most in-depth English translations which thoroughly deals with the subject of at-Tasweer (drawings, paintings, photography etc.). It contains the translations of some of the most comprehensive discussions of all matters connected to the issue of Tasweer. It includes excerpts from two of the many books written in clarification of some of the mistakes of Shaykh Yusuf al-Qaradaawee in his book "The Lawful and Prohibited in Islam". Both Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan and Shaykh al-Albaanee have clearly outlined and convincingly refuted the mistakes of Shaykh Yusuf al-Qaradaawee. The issues dealing with drawings, sketches, photographs, and statues, are clearly presented and discussed. Are passport pictures, ID's and pictures of cars, boats, etc., permissible?

May Allah Bless this excellent attempt to give us, the English speaking M...read more

This is the thesis which Michael Adams and Christopher Mayhew maintain in this book. Each of them is singularly well qualified to write on the topic: each at first approached the problems of the Middle East without preconceptions; each learned gradually, and often at the cost of personal sacrifice, how shockingly difficult it was to publish, through any of the ordinary media, opinions, or proven fact, critical of Zionism and favourable to the Arab states. The newspapers, the radio and television appeared to be working on the simple assumption that Israel was invariably and unquestionably right, the Arabs wrong. Any suggestion to the contrary provoked an incredible spate of protest and even of abuse from a number of people, many of power and influence, who, usually in full sincerity, also held that assumption. For the Arabs, few voices spoke, and these risked obloquy and threats. With malice toward none, and with scrupulous documentation of their case, the authors have attempted to show that fair debate and balanced judgment have been suppressed in Britain, on a matter which is of moment to us all and which may prove critical, even disastrous, for the whole world.
