The Islamic Personality (Shakhsiya Islamia),Volume 2

The 20th Century marked the darkest period in the history of the Islamic Ummah. Consequently, Muslim thinkers and activists, burdened by the responsibility of revival, have written extensively on the potential causes and solutions for the declined state of the Muslims. However, where other books sought to address the issue through a prism of individual and separate considerations such as political, social , cultural or spiritual factors, this book uniquely identifies and explains the very fundamental thoughts and ideas which form the foundation of the Islamic personality, character and culture. After the colonialists succeeded in occupying the Muslim lands, they began misleading the Muslims about the Islamic sciences and made them detest the fiqh books. Eventually, When the Muslims turned their back on fiqh, they became ignorant about Allah's deen. The Islamic Personality is the 3 volume masterpiece written by Shekh Taqiuddin An-Nabahani (ra). Vol 2 begins by discussing about the importance of Fiqh and the correct way of studying it. This book presents the reader a model of Shari'ah rules related to public relationships known today as political rules or constitutional fiqh, a model of Shari'ah rules related to relationships between individuals known as civil law, and a model of Shari'ah rules related to trade known as Ahkam Al Buyu (The Rules of Trade) and much more, so that they become a clear fiqh model in the mind of the reader in order to build the desire in the reader for further detailed studying of Islamic fiqh from the well-known books of fiqh. This book is a must read for all those sincere thinkers, scholars and dai's who are working tirelessly to understand the true nature of revival and restore the status of the Islamic Ummah as the leading nation in the world.
