As an autonomous, non-profit organisation, we have dedicated ourselves to the revitalisation of contemporary Islamic discourse through the meticulous translation and dissemination of seminal Islamic texts. Our operations remain independent from governmental influences, allowing us to focus unwaveringly on our primary objective: rendering accessible previously neglected Arabic works of Islamic jurisprudence and theology in the English language.
Our methodology emphasises a dual approach. Firstly, we strive for accurate translation of foundational texts. Secondly, we aim to cultivate critical thinking skills amongst our readership. Through this strategy, we aspire to facilitate a more nuanced and informed dialogue within the global Islamic intellectual sphere.
The translation of Book One, entitled Kitab al-Tawheed (The Book of Monotheism), drawn from Ibn Hazm’s magnum opus of fiqh (jurisprudence), al-Muhalla bil’Athar.
We are also in the process of serialising the publication of Kitāb at-Tawḥīd: Asās al-Islām wa Ḥaqīqat at-Tawḥīd (The Book of Monotheism: The Foundation of Islam and the Reality of Monotheism), a comprehensive treatise on Islamic monotheism by esteemed scholar Professor Muḥammad bin ‘Abdallāh al-Mas’arī.
As part of our commitment to accessible scholarship, we are offering Volume 1 of Kitāb at-Tawḥīd: Asās al-Islām wa Ḥaqīqat at-Tawḥīd (The Book of Monotheism: The Foundation of Islam and the Reality of Monotheism) as a free, open-access resource in our library.
The regular production of scholarly articles addressing contemporary issues through an Islamic lens.
We actively solicit academic feedback to ensure the precision of our translations and invite collaboration from qualified individuals. Furthermore, we welcome financial contributions to sustain our scholarly endeavours. Our ultimate goal is to contribute meaningfully to the corpus of Islamic literature available in English and to foster a deeper understanding of Islamic principles in the contemporary world.
