This video on Abdullah Yusuf Ali by his graveside in Brookwood Cemetry gives a concise overview of his life ua-cam.com/video/3KF-Tj_qmh0/v-deo.html - the cemetery can be found here brookwoodcemetery.com/plots-and-section/
My favourite translation is Abdullah Yusuf Ali, I love it because Abdullah is a real old fashioned English gentleman and it comes through in his commentary. I visited his grave in Ramadan and whilst there prayed for dear Gai Eaton as well
For a long time time I wanted to know about the list. I have asked brother Paul to make a video about it. Thank you guys for bringing this interview. Hope people will be benefited from this.
Ozymandias is also a favourite of the great Hamza Yusuf as outlined in his How to Read a Book by Mortimer Adler lecture. He said it gave him goosebumps when he read it as a 13 year old boy. Great idea about starting a book club. I’m in the Zaytuna one which is obviously pretty special with the Sheik involved- but brother Paul, your book club would have its own flavour and I might add, would be pretty special also.
Thank you very much, brothers! It was very very interesting! May Allah SWT shower you with His mercy in both worlds! I fully agree with brother Paul, reading takes you to a different world, it is such an exciting journey of mind! Thank you very much for the books you shared. I am happy I have your book #1 :)))) Mashallah!
Very important episode stemming from this great source of an avid reader.. I already started buying a couple of his recommended titles.. thank you to both for all the efforts
Thank you for an amazingly inspiring and uplifting discourse! Paul Williams is a great modern intellectual thinker, blogger and writer. Looking forward to the above mentioned book club.
Excellent episode. I wish you also do an episode on 'Top 10 books Unavailable in English'. There is a vast corpus of Islamic literature in Arabic, Perisan and Urdu which has to be read for a good understanding ofnthe world and religion, but has not been done yet. Let's see who you invite for this. Maybe some of your listeners could be spurred to take up the neglected task.
I had a weird out of body experience. There was this day when I prayed fajr and then went back to bed but when I fell back to sleep I was hearing a jet like noise before I slipped out of conciousness and into sleep which was unusual thing to experience in itself. immediately afterwards I started witnessing myself leaving the body and frantically walking on the walls and the cieling before I left the room through the door and went into my mothers room and then I saw my mum approaching from behind, gently tapping me on my shoulder as if telling me to go back to bed. As soon as I returned to bed I wokeup and run into my mothers room where I found her sleep. I tried to replicated this whole thing many times but no luck.
Such a keen mind and a playful demeanour. Making reading sound like a whole adventure. May Allah bless you Paul for instilling in us a thirst for knowledge and of course, for giving us the courage to make terrible jokes!
For all the critical thinkers out there, I’d strongly recommend reading the book Islam, Authoritarianism, and Underdevelopment by Ahmet T. Kuru. It’s truly phenomenal and deserving of serious attention.
@@eg4848 This is what happens when one is making excuses for lacking the focus and intellectual vigour to read all the time, lol. Anyone can make the time to read a book an hour or two per day mate.
Some great Books by Indo-Pak Scholars - 1. Khilafat o Malookiyat By Abul Ala Moududi ( available in English, Urdi) 2. God Arises by Wahiduddin Khan ( available in English and Urdu) 3.

Shia's Islam and Sunni's Islam are different religions following 2 different ways. the 2nd islam believes that the prophet's companions, including his familly, are trustworthy so they fellow their authentic narrations. the 1st islam does not believ in the transmission by the companions. they instead assume that only the imams of Ali's familly can directly explain the religion of Mohammed to shias. of course now, giving the absence of the imam number 12 who is 1200 years old somewhere, the religion can still be taken temporary from the 8 shia hadith books containing the teaching of the 11 imams and from the shia schoolars as well. the countries where the 2 faiths co-exist are having very hard time today in terms of social peace like in irak, syria, lebanon, Bahrain ... and in iran. Because both sides do not realise that they have 2 different religions that each one has to respect and continue to interfere in each other's business. Such struggle does not exist for instance between the sunnies and christians in Egypt or between the jews and the shias in Asfahan-iran.

Reading by Nature, forces the reader to constantly exercise the mind in reconstructing the reality the Author is depicting. The medium that we have today is the opposite of that. If the only thing that we can digest needs to be entertaining, then the focus will become the entertainment versus the message. That is the problem with the wrong mediums. If you don't choose the right medium, you will be training yourself to focus on something that will not benefit you, the entertainment factor, and you will be missing the message. With a book it's impossible for that to happen, because the nature of input trains you to comprehend the information and comprehension is the focus not entertainment. Feelijgs of entertainment, shock, intrigue, enlightenment should be the byproduct after comprehending vs the goal. We need to revert back.
@paul Williams Dear Bro Paul, Please do few sessions of Dr Iqbal’s book The reconstruction of religious thought in Islam. It’s quite dense but excellent work by Iqbal.
thank u for the interview!! i've got a question for Paul or anyone really, do you have some kind of a note-taking system to keep track of interesting ideas you find in books? all i do is highlighting stuff on my kindle and that's it :/
We don't need fiction .We don't need philosophy. Jonathan AC Brown is a deviant who says people have the right to insult the prophet salallahu alayhi wa salamthe and that kind of free speech is what makes western style society the best model for human happiness . He also is for "the right" of gay marriage. This is what philosohy and shaky foundations in knowledge does . Add to that arrogance and hating to be called out and straightened.
The first question that the speaker asks about reading can be addressed by observing the era of the Prophet peace be upon him. Everything about the prophet peace be upon Him, including the mode and medium of transmission, preservation and transference of knowledge is of the most benefit. In light of the question, the medium and mode of preservation of the Koran is an indication of why reading is so incredibly important in book format. Books provide something that our current mediums lack today, context. A world without context is shallow and is the opposite of critical thinking. If we are not critical thinkers, it will be difficult for us to determine the truth. When we😊 receive information in short format, without context, this works against the paradigm of having the attention span to digest enough information to make a educated decisions. Our attention is destroyed. Our minds adjust to the medium by which we receive information. We need to return to reading books so that we can enable our future Generations to be critical thinkers vs allowing today's mediums creating the adverse effect.
Paul, re out of body experiences it occurred to me and reminded me that Muslims believe that when you fall asleep your soul departs the body. So when you are undergoing an operation and put into deep sleep surely your soul departs the body to the extent where it is able to hover above and see whats going on?
12:00 If they are coerced to wear extreme hijab, så, they gave some obsession you should look at. 17:50 Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem is copy-pasted directly from Torah Critique of the Pure Reason is not the best choice as one of the 10 books to recommend to the general audience. Because reading and comprehending that book craves a great deal of knowledge in philosophy. So, for one without that knowledge, it's like to say go and study philosophy.
I have the same 2 top ones. I don't think Abdullah yusuf Ali used the word 'Allah' in the main body of translation as he translated it to 'God'. Are you sure that's the original translation or is it the Saudi censored/edited one? I may be wrong.
Some great books here. I would the following: 1. Bible, Quran and Science by Maurice Buccaille 2. The Road to Makkah by Muhammad Asad 3. Milestones by Syed Qutb 4. Blood on The Cross by Ahmed Thomson 5.The Preaching of Islam by Arnold

Khilafat o mulukiyat by Maulana Maududi is a must read. No better book on the political system of Islam, than this.
Reading by Nature, forces the reader to constantly exercise the mind in reconstructing the reality the Author is depicting. The medium that we have today is the opposite of that. If the only thing that we can digest needs to be entertaining, then the focus will become the entertainment versus the message. That is the problem with the wrong mediums.

Add to that arrogance and hating to be called out and straightened.
