Book Description
Storytelling remains one of history's most relished pastimes. It inspires its audience to imagine, aspire and dream. Over time, however, elements of exaggeration and fabrication creep in to create a more exhilarating episode, resulting in greater myth than matter of fact. Stories of early Ahmadiyyat share unique aspects of both. They are strictly based on facts, but their fascinating outcomes, against all odds, dazzle the mind. The reality is that they prove the existence of the Unseen Lord and the support He provides to those who strive in His cause, irrespective of the opposition they face. Stories from Early Ahmadiyyat is a children's book to remind our youth of the humble origins of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at at a time when they have grown accustomed to seeing its tremendous international progress and advancement. This success did not come without the sacrifices of humble men and women who trusted in their Lord and the Promised Messiah as whom He sent. Essentially, this book seeks to inspire our youth to adopt the path of righteousness regardless of the obstacles and temptations that lie in their way, in the hopes vi that they will witness the same signs and miracles today that were manifested yesterday-signs and miracles that will, one day, be the stories inspiring tomorrow's youth, inshaa'Allah.

Book Description
The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, a global movement with more than half a million Ghanaian members, runs an extensive network of English-language schools and medical facilities in Ghana today. Founded in South Asia in 1889, the Ahmadiyya arrived in Ghana when a small coastal community invited an Ahmadiyya missionary to visit in 1921. Why did this invitation arise and how did the Ahmadiyya become such a vibrant religious community? John H. Hanson places the early history of the Ahmadiyya into the religious and cultural transformations of the British Gold Coast (colonial Ghana). Beginning with accounts of the visions of the African Methodist Binyameen Sam, Hanson reveals how Sam established a Muslim community in a coastal context dominated by indigenous expressions and Christian missions. Hanson also illuminates the Islamic networks that connected this small Muslim community through London to British India. African Ahmadi Muslims, working with a few South Asian Ahmadiyya missionaries, spread the Ahmadiyya's theological message and educational ethos with zeal and effectiveness. This is a global story of religious engagement, modernity, and cultural transformations arising at the dawn of independence.

Book Description
The doctrine of Christianity has acquired its present shape through a process of change that is spread nearly over it's entire history.

Book Description
An critically-acclaimed Iranian author makes his American literary debut with this powerful and harrowing psychological portrait of modern Iran—an unprecedented and urgent work of fiction with echoes of The Stranger, 1984, and The Orphan Master’s Son—that exposes the oppressive and corrosive power of the state to bend individual lives. Yunus Turabi, a bus driver in Tehran, leads an unremarkable life. A solitary man since the unexpected deaths of his father and mother years ago, he is decidedly apolitical—even during the driver’s strike and its bloody end. But everyone has their breaking point, and Yunus has reached his. Handcuffed and blindfolded, he is taken to the infamous Evin prison for political dissidents. Inside this stark, strangely ordered world, his fate becomes entwined with Hajj Saeed, his personal interrogator. The two develop a disturbing yet interdependent relationship, with each playing his assigned role in a high stakes psychological game of cat and mouse, where Yunus endures a mind-bending cycle of solitary confinement and interrogation. In their startlingly intimate exchanges, Yunus’s life begins to unfold—from his childhood memories growing up in a freer Iran to his heartbreaking betrayal of his only friend. As Yunus struggles to hold on to his sanity and evade Saeed’s increasingly undeniable accusations, he must eventually make an impossible choice: continue fighting or submit to the system of lies upholding Iran’s power. Gripping, startling, and masterfully told, Then the Fish Swallowed Him is a haunting story of life under despotism.
