Purification of the Mind (Jila’ Al-Khatir) – Second Edition
This book has been replaced by a new edition
This book contains fifty-four discourses that Shaikh ‘Abd Al-Qadir Al-Jilani delivered at his school in Baghdad in the middle of the sixth Hijra century (1150-1151 CE). As in all of his sermons and writings, the Shaikh explains to his audience in these discourses how to draw nearer to God. His words are the fruit of years of personal strife against his lower self and complete dedication to God, telling the fascinating story of his attainment to nearness to God.
Abrogation in the Qur’an and Islamic Law
This book traces the development of the concept of abrogation from its most basic form to the complex and multi-faceted doctrine it has become. It also critiques the role of abrogation in rationalizing the view that not all of the Qur’anic revelation has survived and its application in Islamic law.
Fifteen Letters (Khamsata ‘Ashara Maktuban)
This book consists of fifteen letters by Shaikh ‘Abd Al-Qadir Al-Jilani. Articulated in a sublime mystical language, the letters describe spiritual experiences that are attained through striving against one’s base desires and committed devotion to Allah. They are written in a peculiar style whereby each sentence or group of sentences is followed by a related Qur’anic text, which is often a part of a verse.
The Mystery of the Crucifixion
This book has been replaced by a new book
A critical examination of the narrative of the crucifixion of Jesus in the New Testament, Christian writings, and early historical sources. The consistent and more credible alternative scenario of the Qur’an is explained.
The Crucifixion of Jesus
This study shows that the belief in Jesus’ crucifixion is a matter of faith, not historical evidence. The book explains the serious issues in the Gospel narratives and compares them with the Qur’an’s assertion that Jesus was not crucified.
The Mystery of the Messiah
This book compares the concept of “Messiah” in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, examining its portrayal in the Old Testament and other Jewish writings, the New Testament, and the Qur’an.
