Justice and Islamic Law
What do you do when divine law and the justice demanded by your conscience clash? Muslims have wrestled with this problem since the earliest caliphates. The mazalim courts, dating back to the eighth century, were the answer: courts where any subject could appeal directly to an Islamic ruler regarding any matter of justice. Mazalim courts, which were not bound by the rulings of an established school of Islamic law, could address crises in authority and order that Shariah courts could not. Bestselling author Jonathan A.C. Brown unveils the history of mazalim courts, analyses the political, legal and theological thought of its tradition and contends that mazalim courts did not oppose or transcend Shariah. Mazalim courts allowed the state to step in and provide substantive justice when procedural justice failed its subjects.
A Concise History of Ireland
Situated on one of Europe's busiest sea-roads, Ireland has always been connected to other cultures. This accessible and engaging history explores these connections across 1,600 years, from the arrival of Christianity in the fifth century to the present day. While the Norman invasion in 1169 brought the English crown into Irish politics, the impulse to preserve the Irish language and early Irish history united many of the Gaelic-Irish and Anglo-Normans from the fourteenth century. The Irish nationhood that emerged later was based more on Catholicism, as Ireland became a minor theatre of bitter European conflicts of the early modern period. Political (and religious) loyalties which solidified at this point determined Irish politics for the next three centuries, through the Troubles and beyond. Alongside these major political events, Caitriona Clear examines the living and working conditions of ordinary men and women — what they traded and farmed, how they lived and loved, and how they were often affected, but not always overwhelmed, by the politics of their time.

PINK, author of When'Immaculately researched and beautifully written' LARA MAIKLEM, author of MudlarkingA journey into the forgotten art of marking time through signs in the world around us – from the slow sliding of sunbeams to the wheeling of the stars.

They noticed the flowers that close at noon, sensed how the quality of light changes at dusk, and marked time at night by the motion of the stars. Today, in our clock-bound, screen-immersed world, most of us rely on machines to mark the hours. But what riches might we gain from reclaiming the forgotten art of sensing time by events in the living worl? oaming from ancient downland to city streets, The Fullness of Time is an adventure in search of those patterns that once shaped the rhythm of our days – and an invitation to discover the simple, sensory joys of truly paying attention.

Futhark Rune Mysteries
Uncovers the ancient Egyptian origin and magical power of the runes• Reveals the lineage of the runes by tracing their historical journey from Egyptian hieroglyphs through the Semitic Phoenician language to northern Europe• Draws on stories of the Norse sagas to show the runes’ spiritual attributes by looking at the physical characteristics of the objects that represent them• Illustrates the initiatory nature of the runes and how they, like Egyptian hieroglyphs, reveal mysteries of passage through life, death, and the afterlifeThis book reveals the alphabet secrets in the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and traces their journey to the frozen north, where they came to be known as the runes—twenty-four magical symbols, each with their own unique story and power. Judith Dillon illustrates how the runes became not only an alphabet for communication but a spiritual portal to enlightenment. Drawing on Norse sagas and runic poems, Dillon reveals the spiritual and divinatory attributes of each rune by examining the physical characteristics of the objects chosen to represent them. The meaning of rune is “secret,” and she notes that, in addition to the gift of an alphabet, each symbol represents a secret taught to a few initiates through trade guilds that moved over Phoenician trading routes. Dillon also shows how the magical properties of runes are demonstrated through mythological tales. Just as we see in the Egyptian Book of the Dead, or Spells of Coming Forth by Day, these rune mysteries were taught to initiates to reveal ritualistic wisdom of passage through life, death, and the afterlife. More than an alphabet, the runes contain the promise of a return to the light.
The Quiet Neighbor
A heart-stopping tale of family secrets, buried trauma, and the lengths a mother will go to save her child, even when that child might not want to be saved.

Security footage shows her leaving with an older man. And the boy she was supposed to date? His name sends chills down Cynthia's spine—Alexander Beaufort. That's impossible. Alexander Beaufort is the serial killer who destroyed Cynthia's childhood, murdered her best friend, and forced her into witness protection twenty years ago. He's supposed to be locked away forever. But someone is playing a deadly game, leaving clues that drag Cynthia back to her darkest memories. With only three days to find her daughter, she must confront the monster from her past and the shocking secrets Tori has been hiding. In this quiet suburban neighborhood, everyone has something to conceal. And some neighbors are more dangerous than others.
Why? The Purpose of the Universe
Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. But do we have to choose between these option? n this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life. In contrast to religious thinkers, Goff argues that the traditional God is a bad explanation of cosmic purpose. Instead, he explores a range of alternative possibilities for accounting for cosmic purpose, from the speculation that we live in a computer simulation to the hypothesis that the universe itself is a conscious mind. Goff scrutinizes these options with analytical rigour, laying the foundations for a new paradigm of philosophical enquiry into the middle ground between God and atheism. Ultimately, Goff outlines a way of living in hope that cosmic purpose is still unfolding, involving political engagement and a non-literalist interpretation of traditional religion.
