Fiqh isn’t only for scholars. Muslim youth need to understand Islamic rulings, too. Fiqh is the knowledge of Islamic jurisprudence that guides our haraam and halal. Every Muslim should embark on the journey of learning, so every Muslim can make educated decisions in day-to-day life. How is our fiqh derived?What are the objectives of Islamic law?What roles do madhaahib play in fiqh? How to take care of your personal hygiene? How to find peace in your life through the daily prayers? These questions, among many more, are answered in vivid, contemporary manner in ‘FIQH: A Practical Guide to Worship Allah.’ A must book to build your connection with Allah through daily rituals of Islam. Shari'ah (Islamic law) is much maligned in the media and in the world today. The term is abused and misunderstood. Yet for a Muslim, shari'ah represents the practical application of Islam in everyday life. The linguistic root of the word shari'ah is a path or way. Muslims believe that Allah is the law giver and that due to His knowledge and wisdom He already knows what actions are best for us and which will hurt us emotionally, spiritually or physically. The shari'ah represents what Allah, the Maker and Sustainer of all the worlds and Knower of all things, has directed His creation to do in order to live successfully by way of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of His Final Messenger Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam. It is the key to achieving success in this world and earning the best reward in the Hereafter. The shari'ah encompasses everything from the way Muslims practice the most personal and intimate of matters to how they worship, conduct business or governance. All of that and more is a part of shari'ah and how to apply it is the job of Fiqh. This book introduces some basic rulings of Islamic Fiqh related to personal hygiene, prayer and its effect on our mental health. It is written in simple and clear language that allows topics to be easily understood and designed in a manner that reinforces the concepts therein. We have used all authenticated hadeeth references and have put forward the positions of a majority of the scholars or the position which is closest to the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam. We have cited any difference of opinion when applicable. This book is part of a courageous, new Islamic Studies curriculum for Al-Huda School. Features like the Brain Teaser boxes and Review and Reflect sections show everyday, practical applications of fiqh. We pray that this curriculum helps you draw closer to Allah. We would love to improve this curriculum with your suggestions. The book is in English with Arabic sections of Quran and hadith.

Have you ever heard someone say, "I wish I was dead?" From Here to Hereafter explores the soul's journey from this temporary world into the eternal Hereafter. It describes life after death, with vivid scenes from the Qur'an and Sunnah depicting what happens when a person is dying, what occurs after death as they enter the Hereafter, and the major and minor signs of the onset of the Day of Judgment. What shocking events will characterize this day? How will the terrifying reckoning transpire? Where will we end up: heaven or hell? What will the final abode look like? By providing knowledge about the Day of Judgment and an authentic, emotional depiction of both Paradise and Hellfire, From Here to the Hereafter takes the reader on a spiritual journey to establish a true connection with Allah. Death is a topic that is relevant to us all, and yet it simply isn't something we enjoy talking about. We are constantly told to live our lives to the fullest, filling them with things we enjoy and things that bring us happiness because we only live once. But this concept of living is not the purpose for which we were created. Islam encourages Muslims to be ever-mindful of the temporary nature of this life. It is essential for every Muslim to understand our true purpose in life and what is required of us to reach the Hereafter successfully. As Muslims, belief in the Day of Judgment is a Pillar of Iman (faith) and an essential part of belief in the unseen. Believing in the Day of Judgment means affirming that Allah has predetermined a specific time to end life on Earth. This belief stems from what Allah has revealed to us in the Qur’an and from the teachings of the Prophet sallAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam. From Here to the Hereafter provides important information about the major and minor signs of the Day of Judgment, death, the scenes leading up to the Last Hour, the Reckoning, and descriptions of Jannah and Jahannam. Knowing this will impact the way we think about death, how we live our lives, and how we better understand its significance, preparing ourselves for it. We will also explore why iman in the Day of Judgment is extremely important for our ultimate success in both this world and the Hereafter. This book is part of the Journey to Allah series—a new Islamic Studies series that aims to help you apply your faith to real-world issues. It presents everyday practical applications of Islam. We pray that this book helps you draw closer to Allah as you learn and apply the knowledge within to your daily life.
