Seven Pillars of Wisdom
$24.00$26.00
It is an autobiography of Thomas Edward Lawrence, in which he recounts his experience in the Great Arab Revolt and his political and military vision for the Middle East.
This book presents the story of war and adventure, the complete summary of what the Arabs can mean to the world. This book immediately took its place among the English classics. The richness of the subject, its strength, the quality of the high style in its writing, and that boundless mystical character, all of this raised this great work above the level of all contemporary writings. If the British politician Winston Churchill said this about Lawrence’s most famous book, the latter himself viewed his work, of which this book was the summary and historical narrative, in the following manner: “I have had only one desire throughout my life, and that was to be able to express myself, in any kind of imaginative form, but my mind, too scattered, never knew how to obtain the necessary technique for this. Then chance, in addition to a somewhat perverse temperament, threw me into the midst of the work and action itself, and gave me a place in the Arab revolution,

Renewing the Methodology in Evaluating Heritage
$15.00In this innovative work, Taha Abdel Rahman set out to confront those who sought to create an epistemological break with the Islamic heritage, by criticizing its contents through abstract and politicized means, and excluding the rooted means of corrective and humanizing. He called for the adoption of an integrated and continuous evaluation of the heritage practice from within its field of circulation (its reference). It is a mechanical methodology (the abstract part of the method) in its objectives (not content), practical in its starting point (not abstract), and objectionable in its approach (not incidental).

Pilgrim of Compostela
$8.00The Pilgrim or The Pilgrimage of Compostela is Paulo Coelho’s first work, and tells the story of a unique spiritual quest on the Way of Saint James in Spain. The narrator sets out on a long journey in search of his sword, which he lost when he was presented to it. The teacher stipulates that in order to retrieve it, he must make a pilgrimage along an ancient road, which was used by pilgrims in the Middle Ages and was considered one of the most important religious shrines in the West. On the way, the guide Petros teaches the narrator Paulo the exercises and rituals of the “Ram” (an ancient spiritual association), simple practices that help a person discover his own path, provide him with energy and courage, and deepen his personal intuition that connects him to the truth.

Ibn Khaldun’s Thought, Asabiyyah and the State
$14.00The author of the book states that after spending ten years in the company of Ibn Khaldun’s Muqaddimah, he concluded that: There are still many angles that need more research despite the many studies and writings about Ibn Khaldun and his most famous book, the Muqaddimah. He also concluded that corrections must be made to return Khaldunian thought to its original framework and preserve its entirety and true identity. And its readings according to the circumstances of his social experience, his personal concerns, and his modern context.
He also pointed out through his research the methodological error that many of Ibn Khaldun’s admirers have fallen into, and we mean by that looking with the eye of the present, and starting from contemporary thought, to the opinions and theories mentioned in the Muqaddimah in social, political, and economic affairs. As well as understanding his terms and expressions in a way that deviates from his purpose, and distances them from the scope of his interest and the molds of his thinking. In his view, most Khaldunian studies rarely look at Khaldunian thought as a whole, but rather they often look at his opinions in this field independently and separately from his opinions in other fields.
