Understanding the Muqaddimah by ibn Khaldun is not easy. Many teachers and researchers consider this work to be one of the hardest to read due to its high Arabic and understanding ibn Khaldunโs concepts.
Our teacher in Sociology, Dr. Benaouda Bensaid from Algeria suggested me to read and understand the summary of the Muqadimah by Dr. Abdul Muhsin al-โUsaymi before actually diving deep into the Muqaddimah itself. Reason being so I can be able to grasp the core ideas from Ibn Khaldun first.
We are also currently studying this book at our university, Sabahattin Zaim in Istanbul.

New Book!
The Gems of Al Andalus page will start a new initiative in posting newly published books about al-Andalus or from Andalusian authors of the past!
Due to al-Andalus being one one leading places in culture and knowledge of its time, the books will vary in topics.
A new book has been published recently from the top early scholars of Hadith of al-Andalus, Ibn Waddah al-Qurtubi.
It was said that Imam Ibn Waddah and Baqi ibn Khalad were the founders of the school of hadith in al-Andalus.
This book is about the narrators that Imam Ibn Waddah took from in hadith. It is very useful for a student of hadith and a researcher.

It was said that this is the cave where Ibn Khaldun wrote his famous book, Al-Muqaddimah.
Dr. Benaouda Bensaid, who is my teacher in Sociology and taught us from the Muqaddimah visited the cave.
Al-Muqaddimah is one of the greatest books ever written on social sciences, cultural history, economics and much more. Many westerners and Muslim scholars till this day quote from Ibn Khaldun due to the importance of the book.
Ibn Khaldun secluded himself in this town of Tiaret in Algeria after keeping himself away from political life. Ibn Khaldun came from a high class Andalusian family who was well known within the political life of Al-Andalus before emigrating to Tunis after the fall of Seville.

Ibn Hazm al-Andalusi:
No calamity is there in the world equal to separation: if the souls of men should flow out of their bodies by reason of it-and much more the tears out of their eyes-it were but little to wonder at.
A certain philosopher, on hearing a man remark that separation was the brother of death, said, โNay, but death is the brother of separationโ.

New book!
A newly published book by Imam and Judge, Mundhir ibn Saโd al-Bulluti al-Andalusi on the explanation of the Mudawana, a collection of legal opinions of the school of Madina as stated by Imam Malik ibn Anas. The book was compiled by Imam Sahnun.
This explanation focuses on being precise on explaining the meanings of difficult words and pointing out any words that common people and scholars might be confused about.
Two researchers from Morocco, Ustadh Abd al-Ghani Idโaykal and Ustadh Anas Salim have taken the job of the Tahqiq of the book. Both of these researchers do a great job in Tahqiq in our time now and are both well known in Morocco.
It is worth mentioning that Imam Mundhir ibn Saโd would give legal judgments and Fatawa based on the Maliki Madhab but in private and by personal choice he was a follower of the Dhahiri Madhab as stated by Ustadh Anas Salim.

Some pictures of a project in reviving Andalusian-Maghribi calligraphy in manuscript form. The work is extremely beautiful and I hope to see more like this and will continue to grow, inโshaaโAllah.
The work has been done by calligrapher Ustadh Badr Essaihi (@badr_essaihi), geometric floral design by Ustadh Fouad Blili (@fouad_blili), leather craftsmanship by Furkan Yoldas (@furkanyoldas_), and photographer Khalil SK (@khalil_sk).
I would advise everyone to check out their social media accounts on Instagram and see more pictures of art.
