Dr. M. Sa’id Ramadan al-Buti
Publisher: Dar al-Fikr al-Mouaser Press, Kuwait
Cover: Hardback
Many are those who wrote about the life of the Messenger of God and analysed it.
They presented it as an exampler of human greatness, insisting on giving people to
understand that his conquests were nothing more than a revolution of the economic
Left against an extremist Right and deluding them into believing that the ulterior
motive which led to transfer sovereignty from the hands of non-Arabs to those of the
Arabs.
However, people in general and intellectuals in particular have remained certain that
the greatness of the Messenger of God was a fruit of his prophethood and that the
conquests and soverenighty he realised were the execution of a divine command
rather than a quest of wealth or dominion.

About the Author
RANDA HAMWI DUWAJI is a widely traveled poet and author of
several children’s books. The Winds of Time, her first collection of
poetry begun at the age of nine, was published in 1991. Delightful
Days in Marjella, a collection of short stories (written to introduce her
American-born nephews and nieces to their cultural background)
appeared in 1993, followed in 1995 by The Stories of Fadi and Sana,
the Arabic translation. Hamad, the Young Falconer, a story with a
deep environmental message, appeared in both Arabic and English
in 2000. Randa’s poetry, modern at times, or leaning towards the
classics at others, shows the influence of her background in the study
of English Literature. A diplomat’s daughter, this Arab-American poet
writes from her heart in an effort to promote cultural understanding.

Between the tyrany of the Western System
And the Mercy of the Islamic Law
Dr. M. Said Ramadan al-Buti
(see Abou the Author on page .....)
Publisher: Dar Al-Fikr al-Mouaser, Beirut - Lebanon
Cover: Hardback
Despite increasing awareness of Islam in the Weat and
attempts to rectify the inaccurate notions common among
Westerners concerning who Muslims are, what they believe,
what they do, and what they have contributed to the progress
and well-being of Western civilization, there continues to be
a prevailing belief among Westerners that Islam relegates
women to the styatus of little more than “chattels” with few,
if any, genuine rights. The alarming situations in Afghanistan
and elsewhere and the misuse of power by various and
sundry “Islamic” regimes, particularly as it affects the dignity
and well-being of women, has contributed further to this
distressing misconception. It is within this context that the
present work finds its significance. In a well-documented,
lucid manner, Dr. AlButi offers readers in Western countries
– be they converts to Islam who seek a better grasp of the
teachings of their new faith, students of Arabic language,
literature and culture, or inquirers into Islam and its tenets
– a more accurate, comprehensive understanding of Islamic
teachings as they prtain to women.

story of a great Muslim leader who, at the age of 22 led the Ottoman forces and brought an end to the decadance and
injustice of the Byzantine empire. The cartoon format makes it more interesting for the younger muslims too.

Taking you back in history to the 13th century, this remarkable true story recounts
the saga of one man and one nation that overcame staggering odds to render a
permanent mark both in the history of the world and the hearts of mankind! The
story takes place in the Near East, where the notorious Mongol warriors threatened
the peaceful Muslim Empire. Amidst the menacing threat, a legend that came to
be known as Seifuddin Qutuz was born. Royal at birth, he was captured in route to
safe harbor from the brutal Mongols. From the shackles of slavery, Qutuz emerged
as Commander of the Muslim army that confronted the advancing Mongol warriors.
The story culminates with the legendary battle in the Palestinian city of Ain-Jaloot in 1260 AD. The Muslim’s bold defeat
of Hulego Khan (heir to Genghis Khan) ultimately protected the Holy City of Jerusalem from their savage pillaging. As
commander of the army that freed the world from the grip of terror that reigned in the land, it was the show of strength,
bravery and faith that earned Qutoz the title “Lion of Ain-Jallot”. This stunningly animated emotionally charge movie is a
video your family can enjoy over and over again!
An ideal Kids Islamic cartoon for the family.

The Islamic Studies books from WeekendLearning are based on a comprehensive 12-year curriculum. The curriculum
contains broad aspect of Islam based on the Qur’an and authentic Hadith. The topics in the curriculum are laid out in
a systematic manner to suit the teaching needs in a weekend Islamic school. Topics are selected based on age, grade
and learning levels of each grade. Some topics are covered in multiple grades to add different perspective, details and
additional emphasis. The teachers and director of the school will find continuity in the curriculum as it unfolds year to
year. Teachers will know how much each student will learn year to year, and how much they will have learned at the end
when they graduate out of the school.
Books
All Islamic Studies books from WeekendLearning have age and grade appropriate lessons. Even the length and depth
of each lesson and sentences in the lessons are age and grade appropriate. The lessons are tailored for 50-60 minute
classes. Students in all grades will love the simple and child-friendly language and sentences in the books. The
language of the lessons and the treatment of the subjects are made from children’s perspective. Even English spelling of
Arabic words is age appropriate. The books do not simply disseminate knowledge, but make it relevant to the students’
life and their world. The lessons do not use a lecturing tone, but engage the students in a respectful discussion.
Homework
Each lesson in the WeekendLearning series books is followed by a wide variety of homework. Most homework can
be finished within 10-15 minutes. The homework promotes critical thinking. Many of the homework require students
consult an English translation of the Qur’an. The idea is to develop a habit of using the Qur’an as a ready reference
guide. In course of time the Qur’an will become a companion in their life. When they will face challenges in life, they will
remember to refer to the Qur’an – the ultimate source of guidance.
Teacher’s Manual
Many of the teachers in weekend schools are volunteers who do not have formal teaching experience. Sometimes they
feel lost when a text book is given to them to base their lectures. With Weekend Learning text books the teachers will
feel comfortable as the lessons are structured, resourceful and easy to teach. In Mid-2009, many higher grade books
will have optional Teachers Manual containing lesson plans and teaching guides. The manual insha-Allah, will contain
a CD. The CD has question bank, ready-to-print exam questions and homework in PDF and Word files. The CD also has
many of the lessons in PowerPoint.
