Islamic Book Trust, Kuala Lumpur

The first work of its kind in English. An indepth study of the classification of knowledge in Islam according to Al-Farabi, Al-Ghazzali, and Al-Shirazi.

This work focuses on one of the sciences of the Qur'an, the study of the names of its chapters (surahs). It explains the origins of these names and tries to identify the pattern of naming each surahs.

This book presents a thematic treatment of Islamic civilisation. Each of the fourteen chapters comprising this book treats at least one of the major themes that are characteristic of this youngest religiously-based civilisation of the world. The author’s thematic approach is primarily meant to promote a better appreciation of the living nature of Islamic civilisation. The book’s content provides ample evidence that Islamic civilisation is not merely a passing historical phenomenon. The various themes it discusses clearly demonstrate the continuing relevance of Islamic civilisation to the present and future humanity.
