Elevating Sahih Al-Bukhari : Affirming The Status of Imam Al Bukhari and His Sahih by Dispelling the Misconceptions Surrounding Them by Adbdul Qadir Muhammad Jalal
₦8,500ELEVATING SAHIH AL-BUKHÄRI
For centuries, there have been numerous attacks on the hadith, its narrators, scholars, and compilations, especially on Imam al-Bukhäri and his Sahih. These attacks (in the past and present) are of various forms, and today have become widespread due to the advent of social media. Thus, we consider it obligatory and timely to produce a book that dispels these misconceptions and preserves the status of the hadith; particularly its most authentic collection Sahihal-Bukhari. This look addressed 21 major misconceptions arranged in five chapters, and presented academic responses to those misconceptions in a manner that is comprehensible to the layman and sufficient for the one seeking the truth. This work is a noble attempt to fill a gap in defending the pure Sunnah, and is considered part of a debt paid towards Imam al-Bukhäri and his great book (Sahih al-Bukhäri). -
Rohingya of the Arakan – the most persecuted people: Conflict, Crisis and Solutions – Nurul Islam
₦8,500The Rohingya people have a long history of crisis. The crisis is not an issue of illegal immigration but of intolerance. The Rohingya have faced a continuous process of de-legitimization, systematic persecution and worsening abuses culminating in genocide. Since 1942, intermittent waves of Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh and other countries to escape persecution. The United Nations has described the Rohingya as the most persecuted people in the world. In 2017, hundreds and thousands of Rohingya fled to neighboring Bangladesh when families were massacred, villages scorched, women gang-raped and babies thrown into the flames. The foremost priority of the Rohingya people is to return home in safety, in dignity and with justice. But they cannot return where genocide is still ongoing. There must be credible accountability to ensure victims see justice served and the cycle of violence is not repeated. For a permanent solution the root causes of the crisis must be addressed effectively. Their ethnic identity “Rohingya” and “full citizenship” must be legally recognized and restored. They should be able to peacefully coexist in Rakhine State as equals with their “collective rights’ on par with other ethnic nationalities of the Union of Myanmar.

Becoming President Of Nigeria: A Citizen’s Guide- by Magnus Onyibe
₦8,500The 357-page book chronicles the evolution of political leadership in Nigeria and outlines the turning points in the nation’s checkered political history. With keen eyes on the ethnic and religious sensitivities responsible for the mutual suspicion of one another by the multiple ethnic nationalities that make up the country, the author shines light on how Nigeria is practising zero-sum politics via the rotation of presidential power between the north and south, an agreement that has inadvertently been undermining the unity of the country and is responsible for the lack of real socioeconomic progress even as it is fuelling ethno-religious disharmony in Nigeria.
