The Hyena's Wedding


Book Description

Set in the aftermath of the genocide in Rwanda, this novel dramatizes the difficulty of rebuilding a society that has been devastated by war. The main character, Musonera, is a survivor whose sad story is all too typical: he is the only member of his family to remain alive. Determined to resist the temptation to become lost in self-pity and bitterness, he accepts a job as a local sector leader and resolves to put all his energy into bringing about a new atmosphere of reconciliation--a daunting task in the face of so much entrenched hatred and so many raw memories. Musonera's wife, Harriet, wishes he would not leave her so often to carry out his official duties, and as the odds stack up against him, he despairs over the complex issues that have to be tackled when a country has a long history of feuding groups.

1000 Qudsi Hadiths: An Encyclopedia of Divine Sayings

Next to the Qur'an, Islam's holiest text is qudsi hadith. Based on this premise, Islamic scholars have always been fascinated with the collection and study of this type of hadith. We collected 1230 qudsi hadiths in a book we titled 1000 Qudsi Hadiths: An Encyclopedia of Divine Sayings. 1000 Qudsi Hadiths is not only the biggest collection of qudsi hadiths in English, it is the biggest collection of qudsi hadiths ever put together in any language including Arabic. It contains all the qudsi hadiths reported by major hadith reporters such as Al-Bukhari and Muslim as well as all the qudsi hadiths reported by auxiliary hadith reporters such as Al-Tabarani, Al-Bayhaqi, Al-Hakim Al-Naysaburi, Ibn-Hibban, Ibn-Khuzaymah, Al-Daylami, Ibn-Hajar, Al-Suyuti, Al-Muttaqi Al-Hindi, Al-Mundhiri, Al-Haythami, and Ibn-Kathir. The book derives its content from the biggest 216 hadith books ever written.
