THE WISE COUNSEL OF LUQMAN
₦3,000The Wise Counsel of Luqman
Al-Hikmah is a divine prerogative. It is a gift from Allah granted to whomever
He Wills from among His servants. Some define it as ‘beneficial knowledge
that corroborates with good righteous deeds’; others say it is ‘doing an
appropriate act at the most appropriate time and place’; and yet others
deem it to be foresightedness, comprehension, felicitous conduct and good
opinion. All of these definition are in fact befitting and apt.
Allah, The Most High bestowed Luqman (upon him be peace) with much
foresight, intelligence and profound judgement – injecting it deep into his
heart whereby his words, deeds and manners were grounded in wisdom.
Allah Revealed: “And indeed we bestowed upon Luqman Al-
Hikmah…” [Luqman (31): 12]
The instructions and advices found in the story of Luqman Al-Ḥakim
comprise noble guidance and contain perfect conduct in inviting people
towards Allah, and nurturing of children. It speaks of proper upbringing
of a generation, describing ways to success and teaching people holistic
goodness. Making it incumbent upon every mentor, father and teacher to
pay attention to the prescriptions found therein; providing contemplation and
deriving exemplary lesson plans in the field of propagating and education.
These lessons can tangibly facilitate in drawing hearts and enriching minds.
Consisting of elementary details that appeal to one’s good conscience; for
indeed putting across Allah’s Message to mankind requires proper planning
and tact that is plentiful within the story. One who advises to such a degree
is indeed blessed with prudence – a blessing from Allah, not just for Luqman
but for anyone who takes him as a role-model. -

A Treasury of Sacred Maxims: Commentary on Legal Principles
₦4,000This inspiring collection of sacred maxims is drawn from the genre known in Arabic as al-qawa‘id al-fiqhiyyah.
These maxims are pithy sayings that Islamic scholars use as a guide for Islamic practice in a wide range of areas, from the rituals of worship to financial transactions.
Though technically translated as “legal maxims”, the array of topics these maxims cover encompass the core ethical principles at the heart of the Shariah.
Given its concision, each maxim is rich in meaning, and the commentary provided by Dr Shahrul Hussain gives us a glimpse into the maxim’s significance.
The commentaries, written by a Western Islamic scholar, bring out the relevance of each maxim to the English speaking reader.
This latest instalment in Kube’s Treasury Series in Islamic Thought and Civilisation, will help deepen the understanding of key aspects of Shariah in its legal and ethical dimensions.
Each maxim has three elements which will be discussed:
1) The intellectual coinage of the juristic maxim.
2) Its legal justification (hujjiyah), and
3) Its moral philosophy.
Each maxim will be explained, followed by examples of how it is applied in Islamic law.
The Hujjiyah of the maxim will be discussed and concluded by discussing the moral message the maxim gives.
