Under Siege: Black Muslim Down Under is a memoir that chronicles the life of professional journalist Sulaiman Abdur-Rahman as it gives the gripping account on why he walked away from his high-profile journalism career in the United States to migrate to Sydney, Australia. Wrapped in a riveting love story, Abdur-Rahman's memoir also serves as a must-read social commentary about race and religion. Drawing upon his life experience and writing from his perspective as an African-American Muslim, Abdur-Rahman uses his bulldog journalism style, backed with compelling evidence, to explain why the Commonwealth of Australia is a culturally challenged nation that offers a lower quality of life and lesser opportunities for advancement than the United States of America. The narrative inevitably touches upon the religion of Islam and the global fight against the Islamic State international terrorist group. In the end, this memoir conveys an unprecedented story about faith, love, adversity, and romance.
In the age of Donald Trump and Islamophobia, Muslims often need reminders on the truth and justice of their religion. Such reminders are regularly provided on Fridays through the Juma khutbah sermon. These reminders reinforce the importance of establishing prayers and exercising patience. These reminders also advocate good and forbid all acts of evil, including terrorism and oppression. These reminders further showcase the significance of al-Masjid al-Aqsa in Jerusalem and political engagement against injustice. This book is a comprehensive narration of numerous khutbah sermons delivered in the United States and Australia from 2012 through 2018. Drawing upon the knowledge of imams, sheikhs and Islamic scholars, Friday Inspires Muslim Success shows why our religion of righteousness prevails always and forever.
Monopoly is one of the topics under market structure in microeconomic theory. Comparatively, based on conventional economics, monopoly is the third best solution in economics because under its operational theories it can create Dead Weight Loss (DWL) to the society in term of increasing price and reduce quantity of product in order to increase monopoly profit and reduce the consumer surplus. However in my book of Industrial Economics: Monopoly in Islamic Perspective shown that monopoly power under control of Islamic man it will create more social benefit rather DWL. For example ZAM-ZAM water in Mecca Saudi Arabia is a natural monopoly the only one in the world, but King of Saudi Arabia he is an Islamic Man in this regard he can freely supply ZAM-ZAM water to the people all over the world. Nonetheless, if he is an economic man (Characters of selfish and opportunist and main motive of profit maximization) he can put the price of the only natural monopoly to the people based on his own greediness and monopoly power. To see the Islamic Ethic, Morality and Altruism as well as characters of Islamic Man, under monopoly power, although he/she is a monopolist it still could give benefit to society at large. In this regard, please refer to the above book for your additional knowledge in the field of discipline.
