MUHAMAD IQBAL (d.1938), thinker and philosopher – poet of Indo-Pakistan sub-continent was one of the key architects of contemporary Islam. Through the medium of his thoughtful writing and soul-transforming poetry, both Urdu and Persian, he infused a new spirit in the Muslims, not only of India and Pakistan but also Iran, Afghanistan, Central Asia and the Middle East. He challenged the western concept of nationalism and expounded the concept of Islamic nations, on which the idea of Pakistan is based. A Treasury of Iqbal is a glimpse of his thought and contribution.

Me & My Journey of the Heart A beautiful journal and reference book that will make the pilgrim’s journey to Allah memorable and life-altering! The uniqueness of this well-referenced compilation stems from the effortless meshing of the spiritual aspects of ḥajj and ʿumrah with the practical. Contents include preparing for the pilgrimage, visiting Madinah, performing ʿumrah, staying in Makkah and embracing the days of ḥajj. There are also invaluable guidelines on how the pilgrim should use their time in the Ḥaramain, structure their duʿā’s, and remember Allah according to the Sunnah of Rasulullah ﷺ. Me & My Journey of the Heart features journal prompts, lined pages for taking notes, and space dedicated to writing down personal duʿā’s, allowing the pilgrim to customise it and make it a one-stop resource they carry throughout. While the author shares information based on her experience of performing ḥajj al-Tamattuʿ according to the Ḥanafi tradition, it does not exclude other schools of thought and those performing the other types of ḥajj from benefitting. It is equally beneficial to those performing ʿumrah only. The author has painstakingly laboured to ensure the appeal is timeless and universal to an international English readership. It has been thoroughly checked and approved by two different scholars. It will serve as a cherished reminder of the special memories created along the way, or as a priceless way of the recipient remembering the giver in their prayers during their journey of the heart.

It is a cosmic law that the universe that we know is made of complementary and interacting pairs, positive and negative, upper and lower, matter and anti-matter, and so on. That this is the reflection in the created universe of the polarization of the Divine Attributes into Attributes of Majesty and Attributes of Beauty has always been known to Muslim intellectuals.
But that this law is represented pervasively in all Islamic art and especially architecture has been lost sight of by the Muslims of today. In fact, everything in a traditional Muslim environment, not only architecture, but furniture, utensils, clothes, and calligraphy, is a spiritual reminder of God and the laws governing this world and the next. This study explores in unprecedented detail and with authoritative textual references the deeper meanings of many of the elements of Islamic architecture.
