Books in Arabic — order now, if you have none in stock

Recently, we read a nice story about Abdul, a gentleman of the Islamic faith who had been so inspired by The Higher Taste cookbook that he is now trying to be a vegetarian.

Seven Srimad Bhagavat Sets Distributed on Ekadasi

In the morning I was doing a japa walk, and a person told me that today is Ekadasi. He said that whatever auspicious activity we perform gives a multiplied result. This gave me the impetus to set a goal of distributing ten Bhagavatam sets. When I returned home, I saw that I had only two sets. I called the BBT to order eight more, and I planned to distribute them after work. I also called Vinodh Prabhu and asked him to compose an email...
