The fourth volume of the groundbreaking Handbook of Qurʾānic Hermeneutics comprises 29 chapters dealing with the hermeneutical approach to the Qurʾān by Muslim authors of the 19th and 20th centuries. These authors had to deal with the changes and influences of modernity on Muslim society. Scientific progress and related developments in the natural sciences and humanities posed new questions and challenges to the traditional interpretation of the Qurʾān. The confrontation with the colonial period also shaped the way of thinking of some of these authors and their hermeneutical work. This led them to a search for identity and a reassessment of their own traditions and beliefs. Authors in this volume reflect on these historical experiences in their interpretation of the Qurʾān. The hermeneutical approaches to the Qurʾān in this volume are, thus, closely linked to the social, political, and intellectual conditions in which the authors have done their work. They represent a response to the challenges and changes of their time. By critically engaging with modernity, scientific progress, and the colonial legacy, these authors contributed to understanding and interpreting Islam in a new context.

Excellent bibliographical work about Allama Muhammad Iqbal in the Arabic scripts (Urdu, Persian, Arabic and so on) has been published by the Iqbal Academy, Lahore. Our publication covers only what appeared in the Roman script: English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Polish, Czech, Portuguese, Swedish, Finnish, Turkish, and Russian. Many books have some kind of bibliographical list, and we have tried to include all that material in the present publication. With the generous support of the Ministry of Education, Government of Pakistan, the Iqbal Foundation Europe at the KULeuven, Belgium, has endeavoured to combine meticulous and patient work in libraries with the most modern search on internet. The result is an impressive tribute to Iqbal and to the research about him: 2500 entries, the latest entry dated 1998 (A. Schimmel). Even if many superfluous or repetitive articles may have been published, a researcher should look at even small contributions: they may contain valuable information and rare insights. The databank we compiled at the university of Leuven is composed of material taken from published works and from the on-line services of the major university libraries. From this it appeared that hundreds of scholars and authors have contributed to the immense databank about Iqbal. The highest number of contributions is by Annemarie Schimmel, S.A. Vahid and B.A. Dar, followed by A. Bausani, K.A. Waheed, A.J. Arberry and so many others.

Education is a process to change the behavior of an individual in the society and his surrounding, through teaching and guiding as the fundamental activity among other activities in the community. This definition stresses on the change of behavior from bad to good, from minimum to maximum from potential to actual and from passive to active. All the changes are through the teaching process, which does not end at the level of individual, but up to the level of society. In this sense, the educational process will enhance individual as well as social piety. Islamic education on the other hand, can be defined as all efforts to educate and develop individual self and his human resources for a perfect person. This definition is in accordance with the view of Islam on the real meaning of education, that is to actualize a person who has strong faith in Allah the Almighty and at the same time, he is able to keep in balance his pious relationship with his God and fellow being positively as well as constructively. Islamic education is an education which has fundamental principles like independent methods, learning based on self-reliance, freedom in teaching, self-study, special attention on children, encouraging the skill and potencies of the student, appreciation of the students' intelligence, teaching through suitable approaches, kind guidance, and softness. Islamic education focuses on the behavior education, giving special attention on the development of skill in oratory, reasoning and speech presentation, reading enrichment on the classical Islamic book and consistent in learning, research and teaching which all are based on long life education. Meanwhile, the aim of Islamic education is personality construction, educating the mind and heart, nourishing the potencies, inhabits good conduct and preparing the child to be sincere and clean in mind and heart based on the teaching of Islam. The whole activities and the subjects taught at the process of education should be tahdhibul akhlaq (etiquette construction). The author in this book tries to describe the foundation of integrated education based on the light of al-Qur'an and Prophetic Tradition. The elaboration of its nature also includes the basic principle, curriculum and method of this institution. In the end of narration, the book explains vividly the historical studies on its ideal model that developed significantly through the passage of times.

Do you want to have a more intimate and meaningful relationship with your Creator? If so, read on. Are you interested in learning more about Islam's genuine Message and Wisdom? More than a book, the material I give here for your consideration is a compilation of words intended to bring good news, to educate, and maybe even to warn you against something. It is a piece of work motivated by what I hope will be a sound and strong Message. In this guide, I aim to encourage my audience to think freely, widen their perspectives, and contemplate and seek their truth. This scripture warns individuals to never mindlessly accept any religion without first pondering on the faith in question and deducing its actual meaning from the evidence presented. Beyond all forms of belief and emotion, one must utilize their intellect to seek the truth at the heart of all religions. As a severe seeker of truth, this guide is intended to draw and empower individuals who question, reflect, and consider their own life's purpose and challenge their future and direction. Islam, for example, is a religion that is often misunderstood and misrepresented by the general public. To create an opinion about Islam, one must first evaluate their existing knowledge of this religion to determine its thoroughness and truthfulness before forming that view. This book aims to bring positivity, happiness, and good health to the reader by following the teaching of Islam and the holy book Quran. The author wants to uncover the hidden wisdom from the most sacred book that ever existed, the Holy Quran. Humanity has been given a Divine Book that will guide them to a better life both in this world and the next. The Holy Quran is a one-of-a-kind book that has the power to alter one's thoughts, feelings, and actions. Islam and the Holy Quran transform people from the inside out, transforming them into better people. The mission is to assist people in discovering the Wisdom, Inspiration, and Beauty that may be found in Islam and the Holy Quran. Inadequate education about Allah's words, Wisdom, and Advice leads to the development of a negative attitude toward Allah (God). People who hear about Islam from News channels or the Internet assume that God is a harsh, stern, cruel, and demanding deity who demands that His creation submit entirely to Him while also demanding that they respect, worship, and obey Him completely. In reality, God is All-Loving and All-Merciful in all that he does. Islam is much more than a set of rules and regulations; it is a way of life and religion in its own right. In this work, the author hopes to assist readers in realizing that Islam is a religion of wisdom, love, and mercy for all and that it is the true religion of God. Overall, the goal of this Message is to open up a fresh new level of thought that will allow one to recognize the ultimate significance of their being in this universe; to assist one in understanding their divine relationship with the Creator. The Islamic faith is helpful only to those who are sincere in their pursuit of guidance. It is harmful to those who are not sincere and honest in their spiritual quests, reject divine guidance and spiritual truth, and are not serious and honest in their spiritual pursuits.
