A Ray of Light:Reinhard Heydrich, Lidice, and the North Staffordshire Miners
￥24.44
This is the inspiring true story of what happens when ordinary people unite to make a stand against evil. Lidice was a peaceful and vibrant community in Czechoslovakia with a rich mining heritage. But an act of Nazi revenge saw this village wiped from existence in a horrifying chapter of European history. Disaster struck for Lidice in 1942 when the prominent Nazi official Reinhard Heydrich was assassinated. Described by Hitler as "the man with an iron heart", Heydrich was one of the key architects of the Holocaust. His death, after an attack by members of the Czech resistance, left Hitler furious and desperate for vengeance. Looking for a scapegoat to blame for Heydrich's death, he settled on the village of Lidice, which had been falsely linked to the assassination. In a brutal act which shocked the world, Lidice was completely destroyed. The men were shot while the women and children were rounded up and sent to their deaths in Nazi concentration camps. Hitler was determined that by the time he had finished, no one would even remember Lidice, let alone live there. What he hadn't reckoned on was the efforts of a group of campaigners in Britain, who resolved to make sure Lidice would never be forgotten. A Ray of Light tells the tale of Lidice's downfall and what happened next. Would the village simply be allowed to become a footnote in history, or would it rise from the ashes and forge a new future? This book is a compelling testament to the power of friendship and solidarity, and how empathy and compassion can help rebuild the world.

Meneladani Sikap ＆ Perilaku Nabi Muhammad SAW
￥8.09
Bagi setiap muslim, cinta kepada Allah (mahabbatullah) adalah suatu hal yang mutlak. Demikian juga halnya kecintaan kepada Rasul-Nya, Muhammad SAW. Kecintaan kepada Allah dan Rasulullah SAW harus lebih tinggi daripada kecintaan terhadap yang lainnya, termasuk terhadap keluarga dan diri sendiri. Hal itu ditegaskan oleh Rasulullah dalam sabdanya, "Tiga perkara, apabila ketiga perkara itu ada pada diri seseorang, maka ia akan mendapatkan manisnya iman, apabila Allah dan Rasul-Nya lebih dicintai oleh dirinya dan tidak ada selain dari keduanya yang paling dicintai, dan tidaklah ia mencintai seseorang kecuali cinta karena Allah, dan ia membenci kembali kepada kekufuran sebagaimana ia benci untuk dilemparkan ke dalam api." (Shahih Al-Bukhari no 16, 21, 6401 dan 6941 dan Shahih Muslim no 67, dan 68, HR. Tirmidzi no 2624, dan HR, Nasa'i no 4991 dan 4992). Seperti dalam sebuah peribahasa, Tak kenal maka tak sayang, tak sayang maka tak cinta, agar kecintaan kepada Allah dan Rasul-Nya itu dapat terlaksana, maka setiap muslim haruslah mengenal Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Mencintai Allah dilakukan dengan cara meneladani apa yang telah dilakukan Rasulullah SAW ?
Kisah Supernatural Dari Dunia Jin Vol 1
￥24.44
Jin (bahasa arab Janna) secara harfiah berarti sesuatu yang berkonotasi "tersembunyi" atau "tidak terlihat". Bangsa Jin dahulu dikatakan dapat menduduki beberapa tempat dilangit dan mendengarkan berita-berita dari Allah SWT, setelah diutusnya seorang nabi yang bernama Nabi Muhammad SAW maka mereka tidak lagi bisa mendengarkannya karena ada barisan yang menjaga rahasia itu. “...dan sesungguhnya kami dahulu dapat menduduki beberapa tempat di langit itu untuk mendengar-dengarkan (berita-beritanya). Tetapi sekarang barangsiapa yang (mencoba) mendengar-dengarkan (seperti itu) tentu akan menjumpai panah api yang mengintai (untuk membakarnya) (Al-Jin 9:72) Asal pembentukan kata "jin" dari huruf 'jim' (?) dan 'nun' (?) menunjukkan makna tertutup, Syaikh al-Islam berkata: "Ia dinamakan jin karena ketertutupannya dari pandangan manusia."Kata jin menurut bahasa (Arab) berasal dari kata ijtinan, yang berarti istitar (tersembunyi). Jadi jin menurut bahasa berarti sesuatu yang tersembunyi dan halus, sedangkan syetan ialah sifat dari setiap yang durhaka dari golongan jin dan manusia.Tentang asal kejadian jin, Allah menjelaskan, kalau manusia pertama diciptakan dari tanah, maka jin diciptakan dari api yang sangat panas, seperti yang dijelaskan dalam surat Al-Hijr, dan kami telah menciptakan jin sebelum (Adam) dari api yang sangat panas." (Al-Hijr 15:27) Tidak semua jin yang didakwahi mau mengikuti dan beriman. Di antara mereka ada yang shalih dan ada yang tidak. Mereka menempuh jalan yang berbeda-beda. Seperti juga manusia, ada yang mau mengikuti jalan kebenaran dengan baik, adapula yang membangkang dan mengikuti jalan kesesatan Di antara jin ada yang taat dan ada pula yang menyimpang dari kebenaran. Jin yang taat adalah yang benar-benar memilih jalan yang lurus. Kemudian ia akan mendapat surga dan segala yang telah Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala sediakan untuk kaum yang shalih. Buku ini megisahkan kehidupan kaum jin bersumberkan dari Al-Quran & Al-Hadist.

The Observer Is The Observed
￥73.49
In these Talks, given in India and Saanen, Krishnamurti speaks to the necessity for a new way of looking, thinking and being in the world. "What is the effect or value of an individual changing? How will that transform the whole current of human existence? What can an individual do?...... there is no such thing as an individual consciousness; there is only consciousness of which we are a part. You might segregate yourself and build a wall of a particular space called the `me'. But that `me' is related to the whole, that `me' is not separate. And in transforming that particular section, that particular part, we will affect the whole of consciousness. And I think this is very important to realize: that we are not talking about individual salvation or individual reformation, but about being aware of the particular in relation to, the total. Then out of that realization comes action which will affect the whole."

Beliau adalah Abu Sa’id al-Hasan bin Abil Hasan al-Bashri, salah satu imam tabi’in terkemuka yang ucapan hikmahnya menyerupai perkataan seorang nabi, seorang yang kafah dan rupawan yang telah menghabiskan seluruh umurnya untuk ilmu dan amal. Nama ayah beliau adalah al-Yasar maula Zaid bin Tsabit radhiallahu ‘anhu sahabat pilihan dan penulis wahyu Rasulullah shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

Beliau lahir di masa Khalifah Umar bin Khaththab radhiallahu ‘anhu, tepatnya dua tahun terakhir beliau menjadi khalifah. Kelahiran Hasan Al-Bashri sangat menggembirakan Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anha bahkan sang ibunda (Khoiroh) menyerahkan kepada Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anha untuk memberikan nama pada anaknya. Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anhu pun memberi nama dengan nama yang beliau senangi, al-Hasan. Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anha begitu sangat mencintai al-Hasan sehingga takala sang ibu keluar untuk memenuhi hajat ummul mukminin, maka beliaulah yang mengasuh, mendiamkan tangisnya bila ia menangis, bahkan ia menyusuinya. Karena besarnya kasih sayang Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anha kepada al-Hasan hingga air susunya keluar membasahi kerongkongannya sehingga Ummu Salamah radhiallahu ‘anha menjadi ibu susuan al-Hasan setelah sebelumnya ia adalah ibu bagi seluruh kaum muslimin.

Considerations on Representative Government
￥8.09
Considerations on Representative Government is a book by John Stuart Mill published in 1861. As the title suggests, it is an argument for representative government, the ideal form of government in Mill's opinion. One of the more notable ideas Mill puts forth in the book is that the business of government representatives is not to make legislation. Instead Mill suggests that representative bodies such as parliaments and senates are best suited to be places of public debate on the various opinions held by the population and to act as watchdogs of the professionals who create and administer laws and policy. In his words: ? Their part is to indicate wants, to be an organ for popular demands, and a place of adverse discussion for all opinions relating to public matters, both great and small; and, along with this, to check by criticism, and eventually by withdrawing their support, those high public officers who really conduct the public business, or who appoint those by whom it is conducted.

The True Story of Andersonville Prison:A Defense of Major Henry Wirz
￥56.82
During the Civil War, James Madison Page was a prisoner in different places in the South. Seven months of that time was spent at Andersonville. While there he became well acquainted with Major Wirz, or Captain Wirz, his rank during Page’s confinement. Page takes the stand that Captain Wirz was unjustly held responsible for the hardship and mortality of Andersonville. It is his belief that the Federal authorities must share the blame for these things with Confederate authorities, since they were well aware of the inability of the Confederacy to meet the reasonable wants of their prisoners of war, as they lacked supplies for their own needs and since the Federal authorities failed to exercise a humane policy in the exchange of those captured in battle.
