	By: Shaykh Abdullah Azzam This book was written by Shaykh Abdullah Azzam during the Afghan-Soviet Jihad in the 1980′s. It deals specifically with first hand accounts of the miracles that occured during this Jihad. Shaykh Abdullah Azzam writes, These incidents which are going to be narrated are, in reality, more extraordinary than one can possibly imagine, and appear to resemble fairytales. I have personally heard them with my own ears; and have written them with my own hands from those Mujaahideen who themselves were present. I have heard these miracles from such men who are trustworthy and reliable, and who have been constantly on the battlefield. The miracles are many, so much so that they more or less reach the degree of Tawaatur i.e. such a large number that does not entertain the possibility of fabrication. I have heard numerous such miraculous episodes, but brevity does not allow me to enumerate all of them.

	The Beard Between the Salaf and the Khalaf By: Muhammad al-JibalyThis book is part of a series entitled, “Enter into Islaam Completely,” which deals with various issues that are of importance for Muslim, but are underplayed or even slighted by many.

Allaah commands the believers to adhere to Islaam in its totality.

He is reassured by the teachings of Islam that he also can reach these noble heights by working to improve his character daily.
