----- Original Message ----- From: Abdullah AM To: islamcity Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 6:41 AM Subject: [3] [IslamCity] Towards Understanding ISLAM - A Masterpiece Introduction to ISLAM A masterpiece introduction to ISLAM by scholar Maududi dealing with the basics of ISLAM has changed lives for the better. Find out why!   Islam is not a 'religion' in the sense this term is commonly understood. It is a system encompassing all fields of living. Islam means politics, economics, legislation, science, humanism, health, psychology and sociology. It is a system which makes no discrimination on the basis of race, color, language or other external categories. Its appeal is ot all mankind. It wants to reach the heart of every human being," writes Sayyd Abul Ala Mawdudi, scholar extraordinaire in his landmark book Towards Understanding Islam. Islam is about much more than daily rituals and habits passed down from parent to child over 1400 years, as unfortunately many Muslims have made it into. Rather, it is a dynamic system of life that touches all of us. In a clear and candid style, Mawdudi has penned this masterpiece introductory explanation of Islam. Millions of copies of this book have been printed in more than 40 languages. The purpose of this book is to provide both Muslims and non-Muslims with a brief but comprehensive view of Islam. This is why a discussion of minute details has been avoided and why the author has sought to portray the entire picture of Islam in a holistic perspective. The book also tries to explain the rational basis of Islamic beliefs. This is one of the author's landmark books. It is an excellent gift for Muslims and non-Muslims and an essential addition to your personal library.   Please read   Towards Understanding ISLAM FREE Available on www.al-islamforall.org (A unique & comprehensive FREE e-Library in Multiple Languages)  and many more books for the complete family in Multiple Languages The purpose of the web site is to provide wide range, authentic & comprehensive information about all the teachings of Islam at one place with unique FREE download facilities.   We will highly appreciate if you introduce among your friends in the best possible manners.   Jazakumullah Khair  ~~~~~~~~~~~~ *  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   Please send all comments, suggestions to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] How much free photo storage do you get?

Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125) {And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33) The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim] The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)  also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
