ISLAM: Spirit and Form- by Osman Nuri TOPBAS
₦12,500This book aims to illuminate the spiritual radiance of Islamic worship and to clothe it in stories of the lives of the prophets and their companions and also in the lives of exemplary Sufis. In particular many references to the poetry of Rumi, Yunus Emre and other Sufis aim to bond the passion of our spiritual practice with its ritual form. The chapters on paying charity and poor-due possess great beauty.

An Exposition Of The Hearts (Hardcover)
₦25,000Allah subhanahu wa tala says, ‘On that day nothing will benefit the human being, neither wealth nor children, only the one who brings Allah a sound heart.’ A sound heart is one that is free of defects and spiritual blemishes. Though the spiritual heart is centred in the physical heart, the heart is referred to here is the spiritual heart, not the physical heart. Imam Ghazzali is well known for his writings on philosophy, reformation, rectification and purification of the hearts.
This book is no exception to these subjects. As the title suggests, Imam Ghazzali lays open the hearts and exposes their diseases, ailments, maladies, virtues, merits and values. In doing so, he proves that the hearts are capable of both good and evil and that it is upon us to either cleanse and purify them or to soil and contaminate them.
Purification of the heart would lead to a life of peace, tranquillity, satisfaction, Paradise, and eventual pleasure of Allah. On the other hand, contamination of the hearts would lead to a life of stress, tension, constant fear, dissatisfaction, Hell, and the displeasure of Allah. Imam Ghazzali provides copious proofs from the Quran, Hadith and sayings of the pious. This most certainly increases the value and benefit of the book. This book is a must-read for those who wish to understand the virtues and diseases of the heart, and wish to adopt the correct measures on the path of purification and reformation
