Self-defence is a necessity for survival. We are faced with multiplicity of risks, dangers and threats that jeopardize our safety and property. Is the saying "might is right" justifiable in Islaam? Is suicide permissible on account of being assaulted by a rapist? Is the phobia for being injured or killed justifiable? These and other troubling questions have been satisfactorily answered by the author. This book is recommended to all, regardless of age and gender.
