Translation of Qur'ani Ifadat, a collection of Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi's reflections on Qur'anic verses gathered from his talks, books, and magazine articles.

Originally written in Arabic, this book examines the role Islam played in history and its impact on human progress and the loss that Humanity suffered by its decline. It counters the prevailing attitude that Islam is a spent force, that it has outlived its usefulness. The author persuasively argues for the eternal reality of Islam and that it is a programme of life which is always dynamic and can never grow obsolete. This thought-provoking tour de force throws new light on the motives, opportunities and impact of the Islamic and other civilisations, on the material welfare and spiritual progress of humanity.

Stories from Islamic History introduces children to Muslims whose exemplary behaviour earned them a place in the annals of our heritage.

Each story highlights an occasion when a person of outstanding character stood up for his faith in Allah. Some tales are from the Sirah while others depict Caliphs, sahabah, martyrs and other pious Muslims. Accounts often focus on critical moments in their lives when they chose to follow the Straight Path rather than take an easier way. These personalities became role models for all time when they adhered to the same Islamic principles that govern our lives today.

The Minaret Speaks presents 900 years of enchanting Islamic history of the whole Indian Subcontinent. It uses an effective device to portray the cycle of events in the Indian subcontinent's Islamic History. A lofty minaret in Delhi built by Qutbuddin narrates both the happy and the tragic times it has witnessed over seven centuries.

It highlights the achievements of successful rulers and the failures of others and also focuses on the demise of Muslim power in the wake of British imperialism. Muslims living outside the subcontinent particularly in the West will appreciate this enlightened portrayal of British onslaught on Islam in India. It offsets the often biased versions found in school textbooks.
