Glubb Pasha’s Memoirs My Life in the Arab East
$14.00$16.00
Arabic / English
The memoirs of British General Edmund Allison, who served in the Levant and provided a personal view of the political and social events in the region during the First World War.
Lieutenant General Glubb is considered one of the greatest military and political figures in Britain. Between 1897, the year of his birth, and 1986, when he died at his home in Mayfair at the age of eighty-eight, this man was able to live a fertile and generous life, especially in the military, political and intellectual aspects. It is important to mention Glubb Pasha’s intimate connection to Arab history as a witness and our leader to the major events that the Arab nation went through during World War I and what followed, especially the tragedy of Palestine and the great role that the man played in the victory of the Arab cause and his desperate defense of the Palestinian lands and his exposure of the brutal Zionist policies committed against our people in Palestine on the field, political and intellectual levels and throughout his life.
Glubb Pasha’s memoirs represent a vital part of the history of Iraq and the Arab nation in general. They are memoirs worthy of being read and reviewed by every Arab to stop at the unknown in his contemporary history.

The Question of Ethics
$8.00“…If they had returned to themselves, they would have found that they permit for themselves what they forbid for others. If it is permissible for them to criticize the religious through what is non-religious, why is it not permissible for others to criticize the non-religious through what is religious! And if it is permissible for them to criticize Islamic ethics through secular modernity, why is it not permissible for others to criticize secular modernity through Islamic ethics? It is necessary, then, to seek ethics that move away from the surface at which modernity has stopped and delve into the depths of life and the depths of man. There is nothing deeper than a life that extends from its immediate to its ultimate end, and nothing deeper than a man who connects his outer appearance with his inner self” (From the book The Question of Ethics)»

The Arab Moral Mind
$28.00The philosopher Al-Jabiri believes that the Arab moral mind was influenced by five legacies:
1.The pure Arab heritage
2.The pure Islamic heritage
3.The Persian heritage
4.The Greek heritage
5.The Sufi heritageMuhammad Abed Al-Jabiri believes that the origin of ethics is religion, and that reason stands behind moral judgment, as it is the basis of ethics in Islam. The Arab moral mind was exposed to the influence of political employment and the development of the concept until it reached the stage of establishing or what the writer calls “the ethics of obedience”, which crystallized with the Umayyad state in a way that serves “the unity of society and the state, inspired by the Persian heritage in particular.” He also explained the reasons for the dominance of Khosrowian values and the Persian heritage, whether at the cultural level or at the level of the structure of the state and the entity of society, in contrast to ignoring the Greek heritage, as in the texts of the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, and the medical human tendency in ethics, one of the most important pioneers of which was Ibn Al-Haytham, and also the limited influence of the philosophical tendency represented by Ibn Rushd and Ibn Bajjah, despite their cognitive importance and their criticism of the ethics of obedience, and the fog of the Sufi tendency prevailed, which tried to escape from positive resistance to negative resistance. The writer elaborated on drawing the manifestations of the moral crisis at various levels in Islamic societies resulting from this influence, where the system of the sheikh and the disciple dominated, and its owners completed their moral path, as they moved from the annihilation of ethics to the ethics of annihilation and the dropping of legal obligations.
