Refuting ISIS :
NEW,
*[A5] Paperback - 152 pages,
2nd Edition,
by Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi,
Translated from Arabic,
Edited by Abdul Aziz Suraqah,
Published by Sacred Knowledge, USA.
Description :
This second edition of the book comes after the heinous attacks that ISIS perpetrated in Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, France, the USA and Indonesia. These attacks, which must be condemned by Muslim scholars and preachers around the world, are another testimony that, by killing women, children, and civilians, ISIS betrayed Islam, betrayed the Holy Qur'an, and betrayed the teachings of Prophet Muhammad,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace.
After the overwhelming response to the first edition, the author felt the need for a second edition that quenches the thirst of the readers with more details. He penned this second edition to further elaborate on many important topics, such as the prohibition of burning human beings, the abolition of slavery, and Islam’s position towards minorities.
New subjects are also tackled, such as the invalidity of excommunicating Muslim rulers for not applying certain aspects of
Shari’ah, Islam’s position towards democracy, and the prohibition of destroying pre-Islamic monuments and sacred sites. Several other topics benefitted from more rigorous proofs, especially the section confirming that ISIS criminals have left the fold of Islam and are no longer Muslims.
Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi is one of the leading scholars of
Islam in the world today. He is an outstanding spiritual guide and an
eloquent public speaker in both Arabic and English. His words have
transformed the lives of thousands of Muslims and non-Muslims around the
world. He is a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
from a family of scholars that have taught the sacred knowledge for
centuries. He was trained very closely by his father the late Shaykh
Ibrahim al-Yaqoubi, one of the greatest scholars of the modern times and
a true man of Allah. Shaykh Muhammad was given several
ijazas (licenses) in various disciplines by some of the top
ulema
(scholars) of Syria from the early 70's and onward, all of which have
contributed to his incredible success as one of the shining stars of our
time. He is indeed an ocean of knowledge and lantern of guidance.
