The following publications are being prepared for publication by JIMAS in the near future inshaAllah.

The book will be between 60 and 70 pages long in A5 size insha`Allah.

2. "As-Siraat" by Shaikh Abdur-Rahman Abdul-Khaliq.

The full Arabic title of this book is "As-Siraat Usool Manhaj Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah fee Itiqaad wal 'Amal". Shaikh Abdul-Aziz Ibn Baz endorsed this book 3 years ago in the following words: To proceed: I have read your book [entitled] As-Siraat Usool Manhaj Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah fee Itiqaad wal 'Amal. [The Path: The Fundamental Methodology of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah in Doctrines and Practice]. The aim of this valuable book makes it worthy of printing and distribution to everyone [and] includes a clarification of the Salafi 'aqeedah. I ask Allah that the Muslims derive benefit from it and that [Allah] doubles for us and you [His] blessing and [that He] place us and you among the callers to guidance and the helpers of the Truth, verily He is the Magnanimous, the Bountiful.

3. "Clarification of what cancels Islam" by Shaikh Sulaiman ibn Nasir al-Ulwan.

This book is an explanation of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdul-Wahhab's "Nullifiers of Islam" or "Nawaaqidh-ul-Islaam" where he described the 10 matters that nullifies Islam and renders a person a disbeliever.

4. "Excellence of the knowledge of our righteous forefathers" by Shaikh Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali.

This book is a translation of Shaikh Ibn Rajab's "Fadaail 'ilmus-Salaf 'alaa 'ilmul Khalaf".

5. "Aqidah Tahawiyya Made Easy" by Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Abdur-Rahman al-Khumais.

This is a clarification of the best-known book on the Islamic creed Aqidatut-Tahawiyyah that was penned by the famous scholar Imam Abu Ja'far at-Tahawi of the Hanafi jurisprudence. It is aimed at the teenagers and beginners and provides a handy refresher for Muslims of all ages and background in the creed of the Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'h. A series of short questions follow each section that makes the book ideal for classroom study.

6. "A Word for Word Meaning of the Quran" by Dr. Muhammad Mohar Ali.

This has been completed and the whole work is available in 3 volumes from JIMAS.

1. It places one or a couple of words of an ayah in one line of a column and gives their meanings side by side in another column, keeping the flow of the language unimpaired and the meaning of the ayah as a whole clear. This method enables the reader to identify which English words represent the meanings of which Arabic words in the Arabic text.

2. The meanings of almost all important words in the text are given side by side in another column, together with grammatical notes and cross references, and also comments and explanatory notes wherever necessary. The aim has been to enable a non-Arab reader to understand the Quran as well as to improve his knowledge of Arabic, particularly Quaranic Arabic.
