The chief motive of conducting the study is to refute the constant unsubstantiated association between the moderate Ibāḍī school of thought and a classical extremist group, the Khārijītes. The paper adopts a multidisciplinary approach, making a comparative study between the two sects. This involves a discussion of the historical, political, and theological distinguishing features of Ibāḍīs compared to Khārijītes in three sections. The historical section reveals that the term Khārijītes only appeared in 64 AH/684 CE, when al-Muḥakkimah split into two main sects: the moderate Ibāḍīs and the violent Azāriqah, Ṣufriyyah, and Najdāt. The political section makes a decisive distinction between the Ibāḍīs and Khārijītes in three main practical areas: the ruling of Isti'rāḍ, the ruling of Khurūj, and the ruling on taking an opponent's property. The third section demonstrates that the theological distinction between the two sects is the main distinguishing marker and the most dangerous one. The paper concludes that there is no commonality between Ibāḍīs and Khārijītes apart from a historical denial of the arbitration between 'Alī and Mu'āwiyah at the battle of Ṣiffīn (37 AH/657 CE).

The paper examines historical examples derived from Omani history and explores Omani characteristics by surveying Western reports written by missionaries, visitors, and travellers of different religions in Oman. This is meant to demonstrate the hypothesis that the multi-religious coexistence and interfaith dialogue enjoyed today by the nearly four million Omani population is a natural result of a long history of commitment to 'Omani values' and principles, practised by Oman's Ibāḍī population with their fellow non-Muslims. The paper concludes that there is a strong correlation between the 'Omani values' recorded by Western writers and the ongoing deeply rooted Omani experience of peaceful religious coexistence and interfaith dialogue. These 'Omani values' include the principles of tolerance, social justice, mutual respect, friendliness, hospitality, and simplicity. Finally, owing to the increasingly rising tensions between adherents of different religions, the paper recommends that such successful Omani experiences should be exported to other countries in the Muslim world and elsewhere.

This is an authoritative and inspiring explanation on how and why, to correctly perform prayer according to Quran and hadiths, by Shaykh Mu'tasim Sa'id al-Ma'wali. In it, you will find the reliable opinions on Fiqh as-Salah in the Light of the Noble Quran and authentic Sunnah, as understood and adopted by his two trustworthy Shaykhs; Ahmed b. Hamed al-Khalili and Sa'id b. Mabruk al-Qannubi (May Allah reward them both.)
At the beginning of the book Shaykh Mu'tasim Sa'id al-Ma'wali gives a brief overview of what has been said by Muslim scholars regarding the necessity of following the 'Scholar of the time', along with the proofs of the principle. He follows that with biographies of the two Shaykhs al-Khalili and al-Qannubi, which leaves one with no doubt why each is the Scholar of the time.
For anyone unfamiliar with the correct rules of prayer, it is important to note, rinsing the mouth in both Ablution and Ghusl, must include gargling.
