There is an urgent need to understand Islam in the right perspective if we have to deal with more than one billion people who profess the faith. It is not easy task and needs not only an indepth study of Islam but also of current political developments in the Islamic world and various interests working therein. Dr. Engineering strongly advocates that Islam is a religion of harmony, peace and coexistence. While dealing with the life of the prophet, he depicts him as a man of non-violence by deep conviction.

There are enough verses in the Qur'an to prove this. Violence is allowed only for defence never for aggression. Moreover it is incidental not ideological. In principle it is peace and it is duty of all Muslims to promote and establish peace. This book it is hoped would help generate a fresh debate on this sensitive subject in a much more informed manner. Also those Muslims who desire to establish Islamic state should know that the Qur'an does not refer to any such concept. It only desires to establish a just society free of injustices exploitation and oppression whatever form the state takes. What is called khliafat e rashidah was also based on historical context. The form today Islamic state takes will depend on today's context. There is no standard form available to emulate. This is precisely what this book says. 288 pp.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. This book has documented the riots, which took place in India after independence. There is hardly any other credible work of this kind. Communal violence occurs very frequently in this country and yet much documentation has not been done.

It gives a comprehensive account of communal riots for a period of more than half a century with analytical tables, graphs and commentary etc. It may be found useful for scholars studying or researching in this field and the policy makers.

In democracy only the people can force them to give attention to their burning problems and this can happen when the people become conscious of the games the political leaders play. We have been engaged in this struggle for the last several decades and it is an ongoing battle which will have to be carried out be both spoken and written words. 250 pp.

This timely volume analyses the attitude and orientation of police towards minorities in India's plural democratic secular society and its behaviour while dealing with them as groups particularly in communal riot situations. The essays written from diverse socio cultural perspectives take into account the expected role of law enforcement agencies in plural democratic societies and India's constitutional framework also how far these agencies have stood up to that role and deviated from the same. The essays take into account the colonial heritage structure training and working conditions of the police agencies to determine their attitude and behaviour. Role of police has not been evaluated in isolation but in the framework of socio political structures and processes. The reports of various commission and studies have also been analysed and suggestions have been thoroughly examined. The purpose is not just to condemn the police but to evaluate the system in a manner which can be used for improving the situation. 228 pp.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. This book is collection of essays written from time to time on common theme of gender justice in Islam. These essays and articles deal with various problems like fatwas issued on marriage, divorce, maintenance, custody of children etc and attempts critique of these fatwas. The author maintains in these essays that Muslim practices deviate from Qur'anic pronoucements on gender equality and women's rights clearly spelt out in Qur'an. The rights of women in Muslim societies are mainly determined, not by Qur'anic pronoucements but by cultural practices and hence it appears that Islam suppresses women's rights which is not true. Dr. Engineer has shown quite clearly that not Islam but cultural practices which are mainly to be blamed for the wide gap between theory and practice. This book will be highly useful for those who want to understand the gender question in Islam in all its complexities.
