Islamic Law of Contracts and Business Transactions
The book aims to highlight the magnificent and valuable work of old jurists and modern scholars in contracts and transactions.The book has been written to serve as a textbook for the subject of 'Islamic Law of Contract' studied by the students of L.L.B at International Islamic University as a part of their prescribed scheme of study. It may also prove to be helpful for students of Economics and Business Administration and for all those who are interested in studying the Business Law of Islam. The book is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the general theory of contracts in Islam wherein topics such as general principles of contracts, elements of a contract, delegated authority, division of contracts into valid, voidable and void contracts, gharar, Riba, extrinsic conditions, defect of consent, and the classification of contracts concerning their subject matter have been discussed. The second part deals with specific contracts such as contracts of sale, leasing, partnership, mud瓊rabah, suretyship, and assignment of debt.While dealing with these contacts, both theory and practice have been emphasised. For example, under mudarabah contracts, not only have the conditions of mudarabah in fiqh been identified, but their banking applications have also been discussed.
Statistics for Economists
This first course in statistics is designed for undergraduate students. There are dozens of statistics textbooks in the market. But most of these textbooks are either pitched at a level that is too high or too low for most undergraduate students. Many use calculus and are designed for graduate students in technical fields. Others provide black box formulas without any derivations. This textbook focuses on deriving everything from first principles without using calculus or linear algebra. It is important for students to understand why they are doing what they are doing. Otherwise students cannot distinguish meaningless results from significant results. This textbook gets to the major points quickly and is thus relatively short and very accessible.

Although we do not have an excellent chronological account of his life and career, we have at our disposal some authentic and valuable data about his life, his students, and his works in the writings of his near contemporary and later authors like the biographer Qadl 'Iyad (476/1084-544/1150), Ibn Khayr (502/1108-575/il79), Ibni Bushkuwal (494/1101-578/1185) and Ibn Farhun (720/1321-799/397), which when pieced together give us an integrated view of our author. Qadi Abu'l-Fadl 'Iyad ibn Musa ibn 'Iyad (476/1084-544/1150), mentions al-Da'udi, belonging to Banu Asad, as an Imam of the Malikl school of law in al-Maghrib. According to him, al-Da'udi hailed from al-Masilah or Biskarah. He lived in Tripoli (Trabulus) where he wrote his book, Fi Sharh al-Muwatta'. After that, he moved to Tlemcen (Tilimsan). Qadi 'Iyad further adds that al-Da'udi was a very learned jurist and scholar in various branches of knowledge and an excellent author. He had a good command of Arabic language, Hadith and speculative science.

Personal Hope Shapes Career Progression
Although personal hope is a concept that has received significant attention in research, little has been done to investigate the role of personal hope in career advancement. Organizational leaders are often unsuccessful in reaching, or being effective at, senior leadership levels. Concepts that differentiate organizational leaders are important to the field of organizational leadership. This study focused on the role of personal hope in helping leaders successfully advance in organizations. This study used a qualitative approach in interviewing 12 senior level leaders in the selected, global, for-profit organization. The 10 interview questions helped explore personal descriptions of the understanding and experience of hope, particularly its role in influencing the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors of organizational leaders. The results of this study indicated that hope can be increased or decreased and is positively influenced by supportive contexts and relationships. Also, that it is a leadership responsibility to positively influence hope in organizational contexts through care, empathy, and shared vision and goals. Participants in this study attributed hope development to the experience of overcoming and learning from setbacks. Results also showed that hope positively influences realizing career goals or outcomes, but career advancement was not a main career goal provided by participants.

The Secret of Success
"The Secret of Success" is a self-help book written by William Walker Atkinson. This book, first published in 1907, is a classic in the genre of personal development literature. Atkinson was a prolific writer in the New Thought movement, which emphasized the power of positive thinking and the influence of thoughts on one's reality. The central theme of "The Secret of Success" revolves around the idea that success is not solely determined by external factors, but it is strongly influenced by one's mental attitude, thoughts, and beliefs. Atkinson argues that the mind has a powerful creative force and that individuals can shape their destinies by harnessing the power of their thoughts. The book delves into various aspects of success, including the importance of cultivating a positive mental attitude, setting clear goals, developing a strong will, and using the power of concentration. Atkinson provides practical advice and exercises to help readers apply these principles in their daily lives. One key concept in the book is the Law of Attraction, which suggests that positive or negative thoughts bring positive or negative experiences into a person's life. Atkinson encourages readers to focus on positive thoughts and eliminate negative thinking to attract success and prosperity. While "The Secret of Success" reflects the thinking of its time and contains elements of metaphysics, it has endured as a foundational work in the self-help genre. The book's emphasis on the role of the mind in achieving success has resonated with readers for over a century, and its ideas continue to influence contemporary self-help literature.

Islamic Wealth Taxation and Financing Public Health
Islamic Wealth Taxation and Financing Public Health is an eye-opening and thought-provoking book that boldly explores new possibilities for funding public health initiatives in countries where Islam isn't the predominant religion. In this case, Kenya serves as the focal point. Written by a Pan-African Muslim woman, this book is a must-read for anyone curious about innovative ways to improve public health without overburdening taxpayers.The author delves into the concept of zakat, an Islamic wealth tax, and investigates how it could be used as a source of revenue to boost public health in non-Islamic states like Kenya. By shedding light on the inner workings of the Kenyan legal system, the book highlights the importance of understanding local power dynamics, cultural and religious beliefs, and political structures when examining legal issues.It's a fascinating look at how different legal frameworks can come together to tackle complex challenges, which brings together insights from human rights law, Islamic law, and constitutional law, showcasing the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in solving real-world problems.One of the reasons this book is so timely and important is its alignment with global development goals, such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the African Union Agenda 2063, and National Development Plans. These initiatives all emphasise the need for countries to find new, local funding sources without overtaxing their citizens. Exploring zakat as a potential solution in Kenya is particularly interesting, given the country's influence in East Africa and the potential impact of such a development in the region.

Education as Rehabilitation
The Link between Incarceration and EducationIn today's society, the issue of incarceration has become increasingly prevalent. As students, it is crucial for us to understand the link between incarceration and education. Education plays a pivotal role in both preventing individuals from entering the criminal justice system and rehabilitating those who have already been incarcerated.Firstly, let's delve into the importance of education in preventing individuals from becoming involved in criminal activities. Research consistently shows that individuals with higher levels of education are less likely to engage in criminal behavior. By providing quality education to all, we can equip individuals with the tools and knowledge necessary to make informed decisions, pursue meaningful careers, and contribute positively to society. Education acts as a protective factor, offering alternatives to crime and reducing the likelihood of individuals resorting to illegal activities.Furthermore, education plays a vital role in the rehabilitation of incarcerated individuals. The prison system should not solely focus on punishment, but also on providing opportunities for personal growth and development. Education programs within correctional facilities are essential in helping inmates acquire new skills, enhance their cognitive abilities, and develop a sense of self-worth. By offering educational opportunities, we can empower incarcerated individuals to break the cycle of crime and reintegrate successfully into society upon their release.Moreover, education in correctional facilities not only benefits the individual inmates but also has wider societal implications. Studies have shown that providing education to incarcerated individuals reduces recidivism rates, which means fewer individuals reoffend and return to prison. This ultimately leads to safer communities and significant cost savings for taxpayers, as resources can be allocated to more effective strategies instead of housing repeat offenders.As students, it is crucial for us to recognize the importance of education in both preventing crime and rehabilitating those who have been incarcerated. By advocating for educational programs within correctional facilities, we can contribute to building a more just and equitable society. Education as rehabilitation is a powerful tool that can transform lives, break the cycle of incarceration, and provide hope for a brighter future.
Mastering the Mindset
Understanding the MindsetUnderstanding the Mindset: Unleashing the Power of Inner StrengthIn the journey of achieving success, it is crucial for students to recognize the power of their mindset. This subchapter aims to shed light on understanding the mindset and how it can empower student success. By unraveling the mysteries of the mind, students can tap into their inner strength and unlock their full potential.The mindset refers to the collection of attitudes, beliefs, and thoughts that shape our behavior and determine our outcomes. It is the lens through which we view the world and interpret our experiences. Developing a growth mindset is the key to harnessing our inner strength.A growth mindset is the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication, effort, and perseverance. It is about embracing challenges, learning from failures, and seeing them as opportunities for growth. Students with a growth mindset believe that their abilities are not fixed, but can be improved with time and effort.Conversely, a fixed mindset is the belief that intelligence and abilities are fixed traits that cannot be changed. Students with a fixed mindset tend to avoid challenges, fear failure, and view setbacks as evidence of their incompetence. This mindset limits their potential and hinders their success.Understanding the power of mindset is crucial because it shapes our thoughts, emotions, and actions. By adopting a growth mindset, students can develop a resilient attitude towards challenges, setbacks, and obstacles. They can view failures as stepping stones towards success, and learn from their mistakes instead of being discouraged by them.The power of inner strength lies in our ability to overcome adversity, stay motivated, and persevere in the face of challenges. By cultivating a growth mindset, students can tap into their inner strength and develop resilience, determination, and self-belief. They can develop a positive attitude towards learning, embrace opportunities for growth, and take responsibility for their own success.

(AI) research and development raises two questions about moral responsibilities: Should we continue to develop artificial intelligent entities? If we do, what are our moral responsibilities to them? I write this (AI) moral first part aims to let readers to make argument that to judge why robots need have legal, ethic, or moral limitation to concern whether much of robot ethics is concerned with the well-being of human or/and not ethical employment, or moral regard and threaten of robots. Whether robot ethic or moral or legal questions ought need to be considered by law or society or fully moral agent, and whether any robot ethic or moral or legal issues whether are permitted to enter contracts and largely whether are held fully responsible to ( at least some of ) their actions. The most important aim that I expect my readers can make critically logical mind to give yourself opinions to concern whether either which robots will ethical consequence or in this situation, it is not an issue of the morality of the decider, but rather the moral weight of the choice once made. In AI weapon immoral application aspect, Nowadays, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is popular to be applied to different industry aspects, such as medical, construction, transportation, hospital, education etc. Although, (AI) is a human invention new development. IN fact, it seems only beneficial to human's daily life. But, it will also have threats to influence human's safety in possible, if some scientists or self-interest mind people who aim to apply (AI) to earn more profit or apply (AI) tools to be weapon to attack other countries to achieve to dominate all human's ambitious intention. Thus, (AI) will bring negative influences to our society, instead of positive influences if we can not apply this kind of new technological tools immorally.

In my this books, I hope my readers can know what will cause human's immoral behaviors to bring our societies to bring more dangerous or risks or threats if human applied (AI) technology to achieve whose immoral or ambitious intention. Finally, I hope that human ought not apply (AI) technology to do any behavioral attack to satisfy ourselves interest or dominate global world ambition to avoid (AI) technological war occurrence in the future one day. I shall bring the question: Whether AI weapon application is moral or immoral to AI scientist invention. In my this part, I shall imply some questions are addressed by robots with some moral agency to let my readers to make evaluation of robot its own ethical system and moral judgment. In second part, what is business science morality? Why is business science morality important? Why do business managers or scientists need to consider whose moral behaviors to achieve to do any decisions as well as consider what are negative or bad influence to other stakeholders? I shall suppose different situations to indicate to these scientists, such as physical, earth, plant, medicine, computer etc. My aim is to raise their judicious ability to judge whether who ought or ought not follow morality to do their scientific research in any situations as well as whether who will encounter what of challenges if who don't follow the morality to do their research in the situation .

Corruption and Illegality in Asian Investment Arbitration
This open access book explores Asian approaches towards investment arbitration -- a transnational procedure to resolve disputes between a foreign investor and a host state -- setting it in the wider political economy and within domestic law contexts. It considers the extent to which significant states in Asia are, or could become, "rule makers" rather than "rule takers" regarding corruption and serious illegality in investor-state arbitration. Corruption and illegality in international investment are widely condemned in any society, but there remains a lack of consensus on the consequences, especially in investment arbitration. A core issue addressed is whether a foreign investor violating a host state's law should be awarded protection of its investment, as per its contract with the host state and/or the applicable investment or trade agreement between the home state and the host state. Some suggest such protection would be unnecessary as the investor committed a crime in the host state, while others attempt to establish an equilibrium between the investor and the host state. Others claim to protect investment, invoking the sanctity of promises made. The book starts with a deep dive into economic and legal issues in corruption and investment arbitration and then explores the situation and issues in major countries in the region in detail. It is a useful reference point for lawyers, economists, investors and government officials who are seeking comprehensive and up-to-date information on anti-bribery rules in Asian investment treaties. It is of particular interest to students and researchers in economics, finance and law, who are undertaking new research relating to the multifaceted impacts of corruption.
Outcast
"A great new voice in narrative non-fiction" Celia Walden, Daily Telegraph"A gripping true-life takeover drama" Martin Vander Weyer, The Spectator"A fascinating cast of characters" Andy Bounds, Financial Times"A hugely enjoyable book" The Yorkshire PostOutcast tells the true story of a maverick Yorkshire industrialist who fights back against the City of London and media establishment to protect the manufacturing company founded by his Victorian forefathers from a raiding party backed by powerful financial institutions.Andrew Cook overcomes a childhood blighted by tragedy to transform a failing steel company into a successful defence manufacturer.

The Playbook of a Mindset Snob
Sometimes, you wonder how much easier life would be if you simply had a manual to guide your every step. Unfortunately, this is real life, and things don't come that easily for many of us. Every new day comes with unlimited possibilities, and every decision may impact the rest of your life-positively and negatively. So, why wouldn't you want a guide to at least go through life in easy mode? This book from Bianca Wise is a deviation from the norm, as the author takes us through the story of her life. She explores her unconventional path from the inner city of Baltimore, deciding to leave a vested, solid, steady career to build a successful seven-figure business in less than 5 years. Bianca presents the life lessons she gained from her mother, family, friends, and co-workers as ten pillars, which she aims to inspire her readers to put on the armor of self-belief and take responsibility for their lives in any situation. Bianca uses her story to engage the readers throughout this book, not to instruct them on how to live their lives. She wants everyone to create their own stories, and when the time is right, they can choose to tell their stories to inspire others too. She wants them to be confident that they lived the life that was meant for them, not another person's dream. This book will open you up to the mindset you need to achieve success, remove distractions from your life, and maintain an environment that facilitates your success. Some of these insights may seem logical and others may be challenging initially, but the concepts in this book will change your life. Bianca encourages every reader to apply them to their lives as it fits them. This is the book you need if you're seeking the assurance that you can also achieve your dreams by forging your own path to success. Race, gender, sexuality, religion, spirituality-your circumstances don't have to define you if you recognize your role in the outcome of your life. Your success story is on the other side of sacrifice and hard work. This is Bianca's story, and you can read all about it in her new book!
