ISBN: 9789027979438 / Angielski / Twarda / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780195378504 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Biomedical ethics is a burgeoning academic field with complex and far-reaching consequences.

In this pioneering work, Abdulaziz Sachedina - a scholar with life-long academic training in Islamic law - relates classic Muslim religious values to the new ethical challenges that arise from medical research and practice. He depends on Muslim legal...

The tradition of the veil, which refers to various cloth coverings of the head, face, and body, has been little studied in Africa, where Islam has been present for more than a thousand years.

Together, they explore the diversity of meanings and experiences with the veil, revealing it as both an object of Muslim piety and an expression of glamorous...

From the domains of contemporary Middle Eastern literature, this book stages a powerful conversation on questions of cruelty, evil, rage, vengeance, madness, and deception. Beyond the narrow judgment of violence as a purely tragic reality, these writers (in states of exile, prison, martyrdom, and war) come to wager with the more elusive, inspiring, and even ecstatic dimensions that rest at the heart of a visceral universe of imagination. Covering complex and controversial...

Muslim Youth: Challenges, Opportunities and Expectations
ISBN: 9781441119872 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many Muslim societies, regardless of location, are displaying a 'youth bulge', where more than half their populations are under the age of 25.

For young Muslims these challenges may be compounded by a growing sense of alienation as they face competing ideologies and divergent lifestyles.
