Salam,

If the book is in a different language (other than English). Please put the language in capital letters inside brackets similar to:

Book title (ARABIC)
Book title 2 (URDU)
Book title 3 (+ARABIC)

The plus in book 3 indicates that it's a book in both English along with Arabic

This will help also help the index when added in the near future inshaAllah.

PS. Credit for this section goes to a suggestion by the member 'aaa' who request a book section similar to the Halaal Videos. That was too much work but it did inspire this section which will prove just as useful inshaAllah.

Wassalam

The books category will go live here soon
http://www.muftisays.com/books.php

All the data on that page is retrieved from this forum category and from the first post only. Books submitted as replies will not show up.

It must be in the first post.

Authors can be posted in the following formats:

Author: NAME HERE (letters and hyphens only)
or
By NAME HERE (letters and hyphens only)

Pages can also be stated as NUMBER followed by the word pages. e.g. "25 pages"

Simple really.

InshaAllah once there's a larger collection, further categorization can be done such as by language, by letter and maybe with a simple search feature.

Jazakumullah

MashaAllah a very good selection of books now.

Is it worth having a search feature just yet?

I think it could wait as a glimpse does the job at the moment.

I haven't checked the home page yet, but maybe there should be a dedicated subsection for the books so people are aware.

Jazakallah for everyones contribution.

Jazakallah
Links added main menu and top menu

If another "latest update" is available, inshaAllah the latest books can be added to the other "latest" blocks on the homepage.
