DOWNLOAD EBOOKDIVBorn in 1883, King Faisal I of Iraq was a seminal figure not only in the founding of the state of Iraq but also in the making of the modern Middle East. In all the tumult leading to the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of new Arab states, Faisal was a central player. His life traversed each of the important political, military, and intellectual developments of his times./div This comprehensive biography is the first to provide a fully rounded picture of Faisal the man and Faisal the monarch. Ali A. Allawi recounts the dramatic events of his subject’s life and provides a reassessment of his crucial role in developments in the pre– and post–World War I Middle East and of his lasting but underappreciated influence in the region even 80 years after his death. A battle-hardened military leader who, with the help of Lawrence of Arabia, organized the Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Empire; a leading representative of the Arab cause, alongside Gertrude Bell, at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919; a founding father and king of the first independent state of Syria; the first king of Iraq—in his many roles Faisal overcame innumerable crises and opposing currents while striving to build the structures of a modern state. This book is the first to afford his contributions to Middle East history the attention they deserve.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHumans are comprised of a body and a soul, yet most of them take care of their bodies and forget about their souls. This book wakes them up, the author hopes, and provides them with a dose of spirituality which they may never have had before. This book is written for everyone, and its stories will appeal to many, if not most, people who will find in them beauty and universality: There is One God, one human family started by Adam and Eve, one truth, one heaven, one hell, one right and one wrong... and one religion. Call any of these by any name, it does not matter, for calling a rose by any other name does not change its beauty, hue, aroma or anything else. So is the case particularly with God whom the Muslims prefer to call “All¡h” for reasons which the book explains. This Volume discusses the “99 Attributes of All¡h” or how Muslims view their Creator. Knowing a maker is done by knowing what he makes. It discusses not only prominent figures but other beings as well: jinns (or genies), angels, demons, etc. It narrates interesting tales about a number of God’s prophets and messengers such as Noah, Moses, Abraham, David, Solomon and Jesus Christ, peace with them all and many, many salutations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVery little has been written about Lady Khadija daughter of Khuwaylid, the first wife of Prophet Muhammed; therefore, the author thinks that a book like this is needed not only by the Islamic library, but by the cultural library of the world. Khadija's impacton the lives of people went far beyond her time and will always continue.This tri-lingual book contains a beautiful love story. A woman falls in love, so she composes romantic poems expressing her feelings, defying the male chauvinism of the time. If you enjoy romance, read this book. If you enjoy history, this is your book, and if you prefer biography, this is surely a biography book that takes you back to the time when the Prophet of Islam was 25 years old, that is, to A.D. 570, and its events take place in the trade metropolis of Mecca, Hijaz, describing the ways of life there and then, narrating the details of the Prophet's first and happiest marriage. It evendescribes to you wedding traditions at the time many of which are still alive.Another woman is discussed in this book, the most famous of the Prophet's wives, namely Aisha daughter of Abu Bakr. You will read how she led an army spurred by hatred and blind ambition in order to win the crown for her loved nephew, Abdullahibn al-Zubayr, a relative of her husband, the Prophet of Islam. That was the Battle of the Camel of A.D. 656. It was then that Muslims killed Muslims, a shame that continues and apparently will always continue fueled by blind prejudices, intolerance and close-mindedness. This book is the story of two women: of one who loved and another who hated..
