How in the heavens could I forget 'The Decisive Moments in the History of Islam' by Muhammad Abdullah Enan, another impact making book.
Except for the part on Hz Khalid bin Walid - the book is superb, read the parts on why the Sahabh رضي الله عنه succeeded and the fall of Granada (Spain) among other things, the book I believe was published in the '30s.
Growing up, one of the most favorite books Hz Thanwi's 'Bahisthi Zewar' read and read esp. The part of the 'Signs of Judgement Day' - a favorite topic with us siblings, cousins, mamu's and maami's, chaachu's and chaachi's - we read, discussed, recalled, remembered and...shuddered.
Those were the days...
Easily one of the most famous books.
But not actually written by Hz Thanwi rather by his disciple.
Pearls from the path 3 volumes of Islamic anacdotes.
This is a must have set of books that was just compiled and translated by Muslims at work publications.inshallah all of you will not be disappointed .
one of my favorite books is The Beauty of the Righteous & Rank of the Elite By imam al asfahani.
Translated from the original Arabic " hilaytul awliyah wa tabqat al asfiyah. This English version is a fraction of the Arabic original.
The Beauty of the Righteous and the Ranks of the Elite : A Collection of over 1000 Rare Accounts of the Blessed Companions of God's Messenger Muhammad (Imam Abu Na'im al Asfahani)

I can't give justice to its translation, so can someone please do it for us. I make it out as "softening/melting/teasing/touching storiesl/incidents for the people of the heart"
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
