Hardback. Condizione: Good. We know GOD better than we know ourselves.This is the first sentence of the book - a statement that poses a challenge to three types of readers.Muslim and Non-Muslim readers with an interest in philosophy may be surprised to learn how the Qur'ān can illuminate the problem of evil, the rationality of faith, the limits of science and religion, and the nature of reality. Where do the ideas of Plato, Aristotle, Al-Ghazzālī, Vico, Mill, and Spengler fit within the frame of Qur'ānic metaphysics? How were the modern demand to 'see' God and the persistent elevation of facts over values both anticipated and dismissed as moral and intellectual failures in the Qur'ān?Many Muslim readers will be nonplussed to learn how little of the Qur'ān they have digested fresh from its Source. As Islamic society faces accelerating cultural collapse, cognitive dissonance, and loss of self-confidence, where in the Qur'ān can they find the inspiration and courage to keep up the struggle? What are the ideas they need to defend their faith against scientism, secularism, and loss of the Divine? Has God become a distant father-figure for them, or is He still the heartfelt Reality of their lives?Most importantly, the Qur'ān challenges you. You may consider yourself free of all categories, but there is no exemption from one reality, namely that You did not get to choose 'you.' But for the grace of GOD, 'you' might be someone else. Whether you call yourself an atheist, an agnostic, a Christian, a scientist, a believer, a scholar, or just an observer, you need to decide who and where you are vis- -vis your personal Absolute . be that Truth, Love, Peace, or whatever you hold as your Highest Value.By what we see in ourselves as our ultimate meaning, purpose, or ideal, we are on our way to GOD. With Him in mind (and taken to heart), we need nothing else. And so we read, in closing, a statement that offers a lifetime of deep thoughts and high hopes: If AL-LĀH is all you have, you have it all.…

Store Stamped. --- --- KIRKUS REVIEW --- Two decades before the Civil War the area that is now west Tennessee--once the land of the Chickasaws--was still largely unsettled. A man could clear a space in the wilderness and if he were judged to be industrious and enterprising he might receive some help from the Indians. Elias McCutcheon was such a man, the first, most prosperous, and as it turns out, the natural leader of a community of farmers, traders, planters, eventually soldiers. Regionalist Ford has painstakingly recreated the settings and the day-to-day procedures necessary for the survival of even the hardiest souls in a land which did not yield its rewards all that easily. . .See photos for additional content. . .…
