    This book is a direct translation of Ibn Taymiyyah’s book, under the same title and without any additions.

It continues by explaining ways to cure these afflictions, breaking them down into smaller parts for easier analysis. Furthermore, it introduces the Quran and reviews the correct actions that will heal the heart. The Quran is likened to a banquet: a feast prepared by God that Ibn Taymiyyah welcomes us to share with him. The book is beautifully written and explains each idea thoroughly. ungekürzt.

    Starvin' Dog and the Guardians , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 567min
    The dog is trailing you; but someone has your back.Harry Cunningham often likened bad luck to “a starving dog that followed him everywhere, eager to lap up his misery”. He was correct. Since childhood he was dogged by bad, even disastrous luck. Unbeknownst to him, there were guardians posted along the treacherous road he travelled, from the peanut fields of Georgia, to the jungles of Colombia, to the Arabian gulf, Texas, Mexico, and to the vast prairie of Illinois.Some of these guardians were residents of this earthly plane and some were sons of light and twilight, hidden within our fellow human beings. All were sent to point Harry in the direction of his destiny and ensure that, in the end, he regained peace, to eventually see his actions from a higher perspective and that angels come in forms other than those attired in robes and halos. ungekürzt.

    Baby Edward and the Big Sleepover: A Bedtime Story Designed to Get Children to Sleep: Baby Edward Stories, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 18min
    This audiobook is designed to get your children to sleep at bedtime. Baby Edward has his friends and cousins round for a sleepover, and they all try lots of different ways of getting to sleep. The third of the series, this story includes soothing music.All Baby Edward stories use a number of established techniques such as repeated melodic phrases (read in hushed, gentle tones), characters that yawn (studies have shown this to be contagious especially with children), and the occasional sound that is similar to "white noise" (like a waterfall or radio interference), which is widely used as a sleep aid for babies and likened to sounds experienced in the womb. The tricks the characters try to get themselves to sleep form the theme of the story and induce the same sleepiness in the listener. Always start at the beginning of the story, and if all goes to plan, you won't reach the end. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lara A. King.

    Tale of Squirrel Nutkin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 8min
    The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin is a children's story written by Beatrix Potter and first published by Frederick Warne & Co. in August 1903.  The story is about an impertinent red squirrel named Nutkin and his narrow escape from an owl called Old Brown. The title followed Potter's hugely successful The Tale of Peter Rabbit and was an instant hit. The now-familiar endpapers of the Peter Rabbit series were introduced in the story.  Squirrel Nutkin had its origins in a story and picture letter Potter sent Norah Moore, the daughter of her former governess, Annie Carter Moore.  One commentator has likened Squirrel Nutkin's impertinent behaviour to that of the rebellious working class of Potter's own day, and another commentator has noted the tale's similarities to pourquoi tales and folk tales in its explanations of Squirrel Nutkin's short tail and characteristics of squirrel behaviour.  An abbreviated version of the tale appeared as a segment in the 1971 ballet film The Tales of Beatrix Potter. ungekürzt.

    Banging My Head Against the Wall: A Comedy Writer's Guide to Seeing Stars , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
    The Opposite wasn't just the classic Seinfeld episode in which George Costanza followed the opposite of his instincts to land success. The method behind the madness has been championed in industries worldwide and even likened to the rise of Trump. The award-winning writer who helped Costanza win, and first pondered "the opposite" in his own life, identifies traces of it in the legends he mined for anecdotes before the cameras rolled at his first high-profile Hollywood job, on which he also became a recurring performer, and in numerous stops along his unique road of comedy writing and performing twists and turns, as the only scribe associated with Cheers, Seinfeld, and 3rd Rock from the Sun (multiple episodes and staff).For a Tinseltown backstage pass, lessons from film and television icons; in-the-trenches comedy writing and performing strategies; Seinfeld episodes that might have been; talk show, sitcom and single panel cartoon development; and pitching the decision-makers (or doing the opposite of playing their game), you'll want to keep...Banging My Head Against the Wall! ungekürzt.

    Most Blessed of the Patriarchs": Thomas Jefferson and the Empire of the Imagination , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 873min
    A groundbreaking work of history that explicates Thomas Jefferson's vision of himself, the American Revolution, Christianity, slavery, and race. Thomas Jefferson is still presented today as a hopelessly enigmatic figure despite being written about more than any other Founding Father. Lauded as the most articulate voice of American freedom even as he held people in bondage, Jefferson is variably described by current-day observers as a hypocrite, an atheist, and a simple-minded proponent of limited government. Now, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Annette Gordon-Reed teams up with the country's leading Jefferson scholar, Peter S. Onuf, to present an absorbing and revealing character study that finally clarifies the philosophy of Thomas Jefferson. Tracing Jefferson's development and maturation from his youth to his old age, the authors explore what they call the "empire" of Jefferson's imagination - his expansive state of mind born of the intellectual influences and life experiences that led him into public life as a modern avatar of the enlightenment, who often likened himself to an ancient figure - "the most blessed of the patriarchs". ungekürzt.
