Thus, Innovations - adding new rituals, methods, inventing regular- ised set ways and certain beliefs, must not be entertained. The Prophet has clearly said: "Every newly invented matter (in religion is bid ah and every bid'ah is dalâlah - going astray, and every dalâlah is in the Fire. (Tirmidhi)"
This booklet has discussed very efficiently the fallacies of bid'ah - innovation - and convincingly pleaded not only to avoid it but also try to stop wherever it is possible.
UNDERSTAND ME
In many churches today, a quiet cry rises from the hearts of young people—to be seen, heard, and understood.
UNDERSTAND ME is a heartfelt call to bridge the gap between young people and the Church. While many young people love God deeply, they often feel unheard, misunderstood, and uncertain of where they belong.
With a pastoral, compassionate, and balanced voice, Sam Kanyua invites both youth and church leaders on a journey toward understanding, healing, restoration, and unity. Through biblical wisdom and practical insights, this book encourages honest conversations, stronger relationships, and a renewed commitment to walking together in faith.
Whether you are a young person longing to be understood, a parent seeking to connect, or a church leader desiring to build a healthier ministry, UNDERSTAND ME offers hope, encouragement, and a pathway toward lasting unity in the body of Christ.
You are not alone.
You are not forgotten.
You still belong here.

A Guide To A Healthy House In Kenya
A Guide to a Healthy House in Kenya Air. Light. Water. Warmth. Sound. — The Architecture of Human Health and Well-being
Your house is not just shelter. It is an environmental machine that, every hour of every day, either protects your health or quietly erodes it — through the air you breathe, the light you receive, the water you store, the warmth you keep, and the noise you endure. And as architect Emmanuel S. Milikau argues in this landmark book, far too many Kenyan homes are making the people inside them sick.
Drawn from three decades of practice and grounded in WHO guidance, KEBS and Kenya Building Code standards, and the realities of Kenyan climates, materials, and construction economics, A Guide to a Healthy House in Kenya re-frames the home as a health system built on five essential pillars: Air, Light, Water, Warmth, and Sound. For each, Milikau explains what the science says, what Kenyan buildings routinely get wrong, and — crucially — what can be fixed at the design table, on site, or after you've moved in, usually at little or no extra cost.
This is not theory imported from London or Singapore. It is written from Nairobi, about the highland chill of Nakuru and Eldoret, the coastal heat of Mombasa, the cooking fumes of sealed kitchens, the ceiling damp of the wet season, and the traffic noise of the urban estate.
Inside you'll find:
• The Five Pillars framework, explained in plain language anyone can use
• Room-by-room guidance for kitchens, bathrooms, and bedrooms
• Practical, zero-energy strategies: cross-ventilation, the verandah, thermal mass, shading, the kitchen "one-meter rule"
• Special chapters on children, the elderly, pregnancy, and biophilic design
• Self-assessment checklists and a complete Healthy House Assessment Tool to score any home you're building, buying, renovating, or already living in
Whether you are an architect future-proofing your designs, a developer or builder raising your standard, or a homeowner who simply wants a home that supports life rather than diminishing it, this book hands you the questions and principles the professionals use — before you commit to a single decision.
Because, as the dedication reminds us: "A house that hurts you is not a home."
About the Author: Arch. Emmanuel S. Milikau (B.Arch., M.Arch., MAAK(A), Reg. Arch.) is Managing Director of Emacs CAD Solutions Ltd in Nairobi, with 30 years' experience across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Botswana, and Seychelles.

Poetry Pedagogy: A Treasury of Educat...
"Poetry is like air. It's one of the necessary things."
— Nikki Giovanni
These timeless words by the American poet Nikki Giovanni
fit perfectly with the spirit of this anthology. Like the air we
breathe, poetry sustains the human spirit. It crosses borders
without a passport, speaks across cultures without
translation, and connects generations through shared
emotions, memories, and aspirations. In these pages, poetry
becomes both a mirror of our common humanity and a
bridge to a more compassionate, just, and hopeful world.
Virtually every culture uses poetry to welcome children into
the world of learning. It is no wonder that children's earliest
encounters with poetry often come through nursery rhymes,
introducing them to language, rhythm, and imagination from
the very beginning of their educational journey. The highest
joys and the deepest sorrows of humanity find expression in
poetry. In times of celebration, songs of joy fill the air, while
in moments of grief, songs of lament and melancholy give
voice to our pain.
Poetry accompanies us through nearly every stage of life,
from birth to infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood,
and finally our departure from God's green Earth. Poetry
Pedagogy: A Treasury of Educational Poems is a remarkable
testament to that enduring tradition.

Laura Fair is Professor of History at Michigan State University in the U.S.A. She lived in Zanzibar for many years doing research for her first book: Pastimes and Politics: Culture, Community and Identity in Post-abolition Urban Zanzibar, 1890-1945. In this book she illustrates how former slaves used the social and cultural tools at their command to demonstrate their freedom from slavery and articulate alternative visions of justice under colonialism.

Finding Zoe: A memoir by Jean Mwongela
Finding Zoe, the debut memoir by Jean Mwongela, is a raw, honest account of what happens when life refuses to follow the script we have written for it. Jean had, like many of us, built a vision of what a complete life would look like: the right education, the right career, the right family. Then, in 2012, she and her husband welcomed a baby girl, Zoey Nzilani Mwongela, born premature. Zoey lived for 63 days.
A GUIDE TO A HEALTHY HOUSE – HA...
Is the house healthy? Now you can prove it — room by room, on site, in minutes.
A Guide to a Healthy House in Kenya: The Companion Field Guide is the take-it-to-site handbook to Arch. Emmanuel S. Milikau's healthy-home framework. Where the main book explains why a home makes its occupants well or unwell, this field guide gives you the what and the how — in a format built for inspections, client walk-throughs, and design reviews.
Everything is organised around the Five Health Pillars — Air, Light, Water, Warmth, and Sound — plus dedicated sections on kitchens and bathrooms, vulnerable occupants (children, the elderly, pregnancy, and disability), and biophilia and mental health. Each section gives you:
• Quick-reference cards with the exact numbers, thresholds, and action levels • Inspection checklists for walking through a building • Score cards that turn a subjective impression into a defensible rating • Measurement logs for humidity, temperature, noise, and lux readings • Standards tables drawn from KEBS, WHO, the Kenya Building Code, and international best practice • Common-defects cards for spotting the problems you see most often
It closes with a Master Assessment Tool — a complete Healthy House Score Card that produces a single, percentage-based building rating — and a consolidated Standards Reference for fast regulatory checks.
Grounded entirely in Kenyan conditions — local climate zones, materials, construction methods, and real health risks from damp and mould to charcoal smoke and Rift Valley radon — this is the rare housing reference written for the East African context rather than imported wholesale from abroad.
Written for architects, builders and contractors, home inspectors, property managers, surveyors, public-health and housing officers — and any homeowner who wants to know, with confidence, whether their home is helping or harming the people inside it.
Carry it to every site visit. Use a pencil; reuse the forms. Make "healthy" something you can measure.
