Basic Tenets of Islam
ABOUT THE AUTHOR Now writing under the pen-name of HARUN YAHYA, Adnan Oktar was born in Ankara in 1956. Having completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he studied fine arts at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and philosophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, he has published many books on political, scientific, and faith-related issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as the author of important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, their invalid claims, and the dark liaisons between Darwinism and such bloody ideologies as fascism and communism. Harun Yahya's works, translated into 63 different languages, constitute a collection for a total of more than 55,000 pages with 40,000 illustrations. His pen-name is a composite of the names Harun (Aaron) and Yahya (John), in memory of the two esteemed Prophets who fought against their peoples' lack of faith. The Prophet's seal on his books' covers is symbolic and is linked to their contents. It represents the Qur'an (the Final Scripture) and Prophet Muhammad (saas), last of the prophets. Under the guidance of the Qur'an and the Sunnah (teachings of the Prophet [saas]), the author makes it his purpose to disprove each fundamental tenet of irreligious ideologies and to have the "last word," so as to completely silence the objections raised against religion. He uses the seal of the final Prophet (saas), who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, as a sign of his intention to offer the last word. All of Harun Yahya's works share one single goal: to convey the Qur'an's message, encourage readers to consider basic faith-related issues such as Allah's existence and unity and the Hereafter; and to expose irreligious systems' feeble foundations and perverted ideologies. -

The funeral rites, the Thursday ceremony and fmally the forty-day ceremony are held and then all is forgotten.

Marlowe's Tamburlaine (1587) and Islamic Theology
TRAMES, 2012, 16(66/61), 2, 177–201 MARLOWE’S TAMBURLAINE (1587) AND ISLAMIC THEOLOGY Fahd Mohammed Taleb Al-Olaqi King Abdulaziz University Abstract. Marlowe’s Tamburlaine (1589) is a great Elizabethan Oriental play. Marlowe’s reference to the Qur’ān and the Prophet Muhammad is remarkable in two parts of the play. Marlowe calls it the ‘Turkish Alcoran’ to attack the Turkish pride in affronting it. How- ever, to burn the Qur’ān, Marlowe denigrates it, and unfairly falsifies the Prophet Muhammad. Marlowe’s hero Tamburlaine identifies the Qur’ān as an enemy of the Elizabethans. Tamburlaine’s burning of the Qur’ān is a sign of Christian power and victory. The Qur’ānic biblioclasm on London stage was bizarre. The huge flames and vaunting speeches of Tamburlaine show an earthly hell for Muslims in the East with no limits. Tamburlaine asks the Prophet Muhammad to take his revenge just to mock him. The Qur’ān has been frequently and badly misunderstood in Europe. This derogatory treatment betrays Marlowe’s lack of understanding Islam. Though several performances of the play, recently, replace the copies of the Qur’ān by irreligious books, the English Christian Tamburlaine is literarily known as the Qur’ān burner in the English literature. Keywords: Christopher Marlowe, Marlowe’s Tamburlaine (1589), religion, theology, Qur’ān, Islam DOI: 10.3176/tr.2012.2.05 1. Introduction The Qur’ān is the first and most authentic source of Islam. As a book, it is arranged in 114 Suras or chapters. Every chapter is divided into rhymed prose verses in Arabic. -

This paper is intended as an overview of the concept and experience of suffering in the Islamic tradition as portrayed in the context of the Qur’ân and of the life of Muḥammad, its exaltation in the cause of religion within the Šī’ī community, as well as the development of its understanding in theological, philosophical and mystical circles.

The book discusses in detail the religious rulings concerning Muslim spies working for "the vicious Crusader campaign that is launched by the United States and its allies against Muslims and Islamic countries." The book contains an introduction by Ayman al-Zawahiri, Al-Qa'ida's second in command, who emphasizes the importance of the topic of the book and praises Al-Libi's "valuable, serious, scientific, and practical research on the Islamic judgment on spying." In the book, Al- Libi discusses in extensive detail all religious rulings concerning Muslim spies, emphasizing that they are "apostates" and therefore should be killed as they disclose "the shortcomings of Muslims." He also warns of their danger, saying: "One single piece of information transmitted to them, by one of their spies, is able to exasperate spirits, honor, and possessions in a way that thousands of their mobilized soldiers cannot do." The book was released and published by the Al-Fajr Media Center.
