Tafsir Ul-Qur'an
Translation and Commentary by Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi
Hardcover 4 Volumes 2025 pages
The famous tafseer of Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadi. Maulana Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi wrote in 1981, "... the translation and commentary of Abdul Majid Daryabadi is undoubtedly unique and most acceptable among all the exegetical renderings of the Holy Qur'an attempted so far in the English language... A distinguishing feature of Daryabadi's exegesis is that it provides a conclusive answer to those Jewish and Christian critics of Islam who claim that the Holy Qur'an draws its material from Judaism and Christianity."

The Attributes of God
By: 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Jawzi
Translated by: Abdullah bin Hamid 'Ali
Paperback 169 Pages
Daf' Shubah al-Tashbh is a critique, censure, and refutation of the historical anthropomorphic leanings of some of the Hanbali scholars and learned. At the same time, it is a vindication of Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal from the accusations of the anthropomorphism as well as the claim by some Hanbalis, that he adopted anthropomorphic beliefs, similar to theirs. Unmistakably, this work is a polemical commentary on the problematic Qur'anic verses and hadiths that fall under the mutashabih (allegorical and ambiguous) Qur'anic verses and prophetic traditions composed by the author, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Jawzi (d. 597 AH), the author of the well-acclaimed book, Talbis Iblis (The Devils' Deception).
Unlike other books of this genre, this book is significant in that Ibn al-Jawzi offers an incisive critique of scholars of his own school, for which in return, Ibn al-Jawzi was criticised by those Hanbali and Hanbali-leaning proponents. Our Price: $23.99
