|  | An Arabic Version of the Acts of the Apostles and the Seven Catholic Epistles by Margaret Gibson
The variety of Arabic versions of the New Testament is bewildering. In this work, Gibson provides one particular text of the Acts of the Apostles, as well as those of the Minor Catholic Epistles, based on an eighth or ninth century manuscript, preserved at the Convent of St. Catharine in Sinai. The volume also includes a treatise on the Triune nature of God, with an English translation. |

|  | Meccan Trade and the Rise of Islam by Patricia Crone
Patricia Crone reassesses one of the most widely accepted dogmas in contemporary accounts of the beginnings of Islam: the supposition that Mecca was a trading center. In addition, she seeks to elucidate sources on which we should reconstruct our picture of the birth of the new religion in Arabia. |

A translation of the Book of Worship by the eleventh-century writer Al-Ghazzali, this is a useful book which explains elements of Muslim worship for those who desire to know more. The Introduction brings together the acts and utterances which constitute the formal ceremony called “the Worship” which is still practiced today, and gives an account of the times when this ceremony is used in the religious life of the Muslim. Annotations help clarify allusions and technical terms, the knowledge of which al-Ghazzali takes for granted as he wrote his description of the Worship for Muslims.
