Fire from Heaven

Final Verdict on the Quran

Almost every Christian book written against Islam faces the same criticism: "You are just cherry-picking the bad passages." Of course, this response begs the question -- Why are there ANY bad passages in a book that claims to be from God? furthermore, one wonders what the actual percentages are -- bad passages versus good passages.To answer the question, Curt Fletemier spent a couple of years going through the Quran (Yusuf Ali's translation) categorizing all its verses and pigeon-holing them into 35 different slots, distilling the Quran down to its real essence. He also dug up a lot of interesting information concerning the Quran, and Islam itself, along the way, while writing the book. Like the fire from Heaven that burned Elijah's sacrifice and scorned Baal's, showing Israel the one true God, this book yields a clear, unequivocal, decisive conclusion, exposing the Quran's true nature.

Reason & Rationality in the Quran

In this short yet timely book, Dr Ibrahim Kalin, based on his thorough study of the history of philosophy, analyses the categories of reason and rationality within the Islamic intellectual context as it was shaped by the foundational theory underlying the Quran and as developed by the Islamic theological and intellectual tradition. Dr Kalin argues that far from being a self-standing entity, reason functions within a larger context of meaning and existence, intelligibility and moral thinking. He shows clearly how the Quranic perspective of rationality moves us beyond the internal workings of a single, disengaged mind and places us with a larger context of ontological significance.

Islamic Theory of Motivation

Insights from the Quran and the Sunnah

Motivation theories originated in the west have underpinnings of Greek philosophy. They reflect the socio-philosophical thought of the times. The very fact that some of the old theories are discarded like worn out clothes and new theories are tried out exhibits the limitation of human knowledge. Human thought, however sound logically it may be, cannot be the only source of knowledge. Process theories of work motivation do not address the question of what motivates an employee. So - called content theories stop with describing self - actualizing nature of human being. Humanistic psychology goes a step farther, describes human motivation in terms of peak experiences and religious experiences. Islam, one of the revealed religion for the mankind, answers the question what constitutes peak experience for human beings. It gives knowledge about the essence of divinity, creation, nature of phenomenal objects, life, life after death, man's role on this tiny planet. It provides answer to the question as to that is the essence of human being and his nature. This book articulates these experiences.
