In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Glory is to Allah Lord of the Worlds, Whose praise should precede all writing and every speech! May the blessings of Allah rest on Muhammad, His Prophet and Apostle, on his family and companions by whose guidance error I escaped! Before the reader is a priceless book written by Ayatullah Sayyid Abul Fadl bin Rida al- Borqei al - Qummi titled: Naqd al - Muraja'at (a critique of The Right Path). The book; the right path, was written by Sayyid Abdul Husain Sharafuddin al - Musawi, an Iraqi Shia scholar who settled in Lebanon, for the purpose of teaching the Shia that the truth to the righteousness of their creed are supported by Ahlus Sunnah texts and for the purpose of converting the ignorant, unsuspecting Ahlus Sunnah to Shia creed or at least to put doubt in their minds with their belief in Islam Many Muslim scholars have written replies and critiques to the book written by Abdul Husain (The Right Path), each one taking a particular form of methodology. The one before the reader is different in methodology to all other critiques and above all it was written by a former Shia scholar who has reached the position of an authority (Mujtahid) in the Shia Imamiyyah sect; and none can inform you about a thing other than a learned, expert in it.The book; The Right Path, is one of the books that the Shia Imamiyyah gives a lot of attention this days. It was translated into many languages and thousand of copies were printed and distributed free of charge. Today Shia counts this book among their main references. They gave more attention to this book because their four main books (of hadith and jurisprudence) and other books are full of things that blackened the Shia Imamiyyah, Ithna Ashriyyah sect for they contained a lot of shameful and corrupt creeds and it is impossible to say that what are narrated in those books is the religion of members of the Prophet's household. Thus, the book "The Right Guidance" and other books that are calling and inviting to Shiism hide the creed, superstitions, fairy tales, fables, exaggerations, and extremist creeds that those core Shia books contained. The author of this book, al - Borqei (may Allah have mercy on him), has mentioned a little of the contents of one of those books - which is al - Kafi by Kulaini - in this book.The author explained why he wrote the book thus: After all these situations one of those who love me sent to me a book titled Muraja'at (correspondences or letters - the book was translated into English under the title: The Right Path), he asked me to look into it and to sieve from it illusions from facts, it's scum from the reality. The book was written by Sayyid Abdul Huasain Sharafudden one of the scholars of Shia Imamiyyah, he claimed that the Shia sect is the school of thought of the progeny, people of the prophet's household. He composed the book into questions which he allegedly said were asked by a Sunni scholar and which he himself answered. The author of the book displayed distress and sorrow that each group of the Muslims sects held tenaciously to its creed and shows obstinacy against the other sect saying: "The reality of those brothers who are joined by one principle and one creed unfortunately display violent disagreements...and this induced distress and sorrow! So what is the way out?" He continued his digression saying: " I entered Egypt ...and met by luck one of it's greatest scholars...I complained to him about my feelings and he made similar complaints to me...that was a blessed period between us to ponder over ways by which Allah will unite our words, and mend with it the cracks in the Islamic community. Among the principles we agreed upon are that the two sect; Shia and Ahlus Sunnah are Muslims ...and their differences are not in the principles and the fundamentals...and there is no disagreement between them other than what occur between scholars who apply their independent judgments.

"It is important that each sane, responsible person put aside partisanship, righted his intension and use the reasoning upon which Allah has created people and not to relegate it to what he was indoctrinated by members of his sect." IBN AL-WAZIRBefore the reader is a priceless book written by Sheikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah in defense of Islam, Muslims and the Prophet's companions (r.a). The author wrote the original book in four big volumes under the title, Minhaj as-Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah fi Naqd Kalam ahlul-Rafd and 'Itizal (The fair path of the Prophet on refuting Shia Rafidah and Mu'atazlites), which was printed under the title, Minhaj as-Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah fi Naqd Kalam ash-Shia wal-Qadriyyah (The path of Sunnah of the Prophet on refuting Shia and Qadriyyah). This book was abridged recently by Sheikh Abdullah Ghunaiman, a Professor in the Islamic University, Madina, Saudi Arabia, under the title, Mukhtasar Minhaj as-Sunnah (An abridged path of the Sunnah). Before him the book was abridged by the student of Ibn Taimiyyah, Imam Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Uthman al-Dhabi, under the title, Al-Muntaqa min Mihaj al-'Itidal fi Naqd Kalam Ahlul Rafd wal 'Itizal (An abridged path of the Sunnah).In his introduction to the book, Sheikhul Islam Ibn Taimiyyah stated: ": A number of people of the Ahlus Sunnah and Jama'ah (community) brought to me a book that was written by one Rafidah, (Shia) scholars of our time who is displaying his merchandise and inviting people to the creed of Imamiyyah Rafidah; whoever he can be able to invite among rulers, leaders and other ignorant men, whose knowledge of science and religion is limited and who lacks the knowledge of Muslim's principles of religion. He was aided in his cause by those who traditionally aid the Rafidah of the Batinites, atheists, who in their hearts are philosophers, who worship celestial bodies and who are actually outside the fold of those who follows the Messengers of Allah (s.a.w), do not believe in following the religion of Islam and do not forbid following religions other than Islam; nay they believe that creeds are just like political parties which one can identify with at his wish and that Prophethood is a general fair politics that has been laid down for people's common well-being in this world." Thus, this book is a polemical response and a critique of the one written by the Rafidi scholar and you will find it strong, lucid and self-explained, by the Will of Allah.

Includes a new Afterword Finalist for the Council on Foreign Relations Arthur Ross Book Award One of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject of suicide terrorism, the esteemed political scientist Robert Pape has created the first comprehensive database of every suicide terrorist attack in the world from 1980 until today. In Dying to Win, Pape provides a groundbreaking demographic profile of modern suicide terrorist attackers–and his findings offer a powerful counterpoint to what we now accept as conventional wisdom on the topic. He also examines the early practitioners of this guerrilla tactic, including the ancient Jewish Zealots, who in A.D. 66 wished to liberate themselves from Roman occupation; the Ismaili Assassins, a Shi’ite Muslim sect in northern Iran in the eleventh and twelfth centuries; World War II’s Japanese kamikaze pilots, three thousand of whom crashed into U.S. naval vessels; and the Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka, a secular, Marxist-Leninist organization responsible for more suicide terrorist attacks than any other group in history. Dying to Win is a startling work of analysis grounded in fact, not politics, that recommends concrete ways for states to fight and prevent terrorist attacks now. Transcending speculation with systematic scholarship, this is one of the most important studies of the terrorist threat to the United States and its allies since 9/11. “Invaluable . . . gives Americans an urgently needed basis for devising a strategy to defeat Osama bin Laden and other Islamist militants.” –Michael Scheuer, author of Imperial Hubris “Provocative . . . Pape wants to change the way you think about suicide bombings and explain why they are on the rise.” –Henry Schuster, CNN.com “Enlightening . . . sheds interesting light on a phenomenon often mistakenly believed to be restricted to the Middle East.” –The Washington Post Book World “Brilliant.” –Peter Bergen, author of Holy War, Inc.

While Syria has been dominated since the 1960s by a determinedly secular regime, the 2011 uprising has raised many questions about the role of Islam in the country's politics. This book demonstrates that with the eradication of the Muslim Brothers after the failed insurrection of 1982, Sunni men of religion became the only voice of the Islamic trend in the country. Through educational programs, charitable foundations and their deft handling of tribal and merchant networks, they took advantage of popular disaffection with secular ideologies to increase their influence over society. In recent years, with the Islamic resurgence, the Alawi-dominated Ba'thist regime was compelled to bring the clergy into the political fold. This relationship was exposed in 2011 by the division of the Sunni clergy between regime supporters, bystanders and opponents. This book affords a new perspective on Syrian society as it stands at the crossroads of political and social fragmentation.

From The Matrix and Harry Potter to Stargate SG:1 and The X-Files, recent science fiction and fantasy offerings both reflect and produce a sense of the religious. This work examines this pop-culture spirituality, or "postmodern sacred," showing how consumers use the symbols contained in explicitly "unreal" texts to gain a secondhand experience of transcendence and belief. Topics include how media technologies like CGI have blurred the lines between real and unreal, the polytheisms of Buffy and Xena, the New Age Gnosticism of The DaVinci Code, the Islamic "Other" and science fiction's response to 9/11, and the Christian Right and popular culture. Today's pervasive, saturated media culture, this work shows, has utterly collapsed the sacred/profane binary, so that popular culture is not only powerfully shaped by the discourses of religion, but also shapes how the religious appears and is experienced in the contemporary world.

This book is a result of research undertaken on the subject by the scholars associated with the IDSA project on Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK) - also known as Pakistan Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) - which includes both the so-called "Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK)" and Gilgit-Baltistan (GB). This was legally a part of the erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir, which acceded to India in October 1947. The authors of this book seek to provide a critical analysis of the politics of the above mentioned two regions within PoK; throw light on the genesis and evolution of various political parties and interest groups, and acquaint the readers with different personalities playing important role in politics therein. The main aim of the publication is to help the scholars, analysts, and policy-makers to understand the dynamics of the political systems in PoK, the complex interaction of these systems with the government in Islamabad and the responses of the local leadership to Pakistan's strategy of keeping them under strict control in the name of representative governance over the last 70 years.

IIIT Books-In-Brief Series is a valuable collection of the Institute’s key publications written in condensed form to give readers a core understanding of the main contents of the original. Postnormal times are best defined as ‘an in-between period where old orthodoxies are dying, new ones have yet to be born, and very few things seem to make sense’. or, as Ezio Mauro puts it: ‘we are hanging between the “no longer” and the “not yet” and thus we are necessary unstable –nothing around us is fixed, not even our direction of travel.’ The postnormal times theory attempts to make sense of a rapidly changing world, where uncertainty is the dominant theme and ignorance has become a valuable community. The Postnormal Times Reader is a pioneering anthology of writings on the contradictory, complex and chaotic nature of our era. It covers the origins, theory and methods of postnormal times; and examines a host of issues, ranging from climate change, governance, Middle East to religion and science, from the perspective of postnormal times. By mapping some of the key local and global issues of our transitional age, the Reader suggests a way of navigating our turbulent futures.
