    This is an attempt to study art in Islam in general and the aesthetics of such art works.Through music, I attempted to address the aesthetics of Islamic art. The topic of myresearch question is formulated based on diverse topics related to art such as how canIslamic art be defined fully when the last three decades of history have seen severalbooks and exhibitions that claim to deal with the "common principles," "aesthetics," and"philosophy" of Islamic art. In my thesis, I have studied debates on the aesthetics ofIslamic arts and the various philosophical issues relating to them, (most of which includepainting, calligraphy, architecture, gardening, literature, films, music etc.) I have paidclose attention to why these art forms are called Islamic and have taken the philosophicalunderstanding of the Qur'an and prophetic tradition as its base. This discussion on theaesthetics of philosophy is followed by few other-related areas such as the role of musicin Islam. The study of Sufi music is also included in my research, the said subject beingconsidered as one of the widely circulated Islamic art which is used to elaborate the vitalrole of music in Islam.

    THE PHANTOM TAILOR The Prince of Wales, later George IV, is probably the most written-about of all British monarchs, and his excesses, his debts and the huge sums that he expended on his wardrobe are legendary. It is therefore strange that the man who was the Prince's tailor for over thirty-two years, and his principal tailor for over half of that time, should have been named, and then only in passing, in just two other books. The reason why Louis Bazalgette has been a shadowy figure until now is that the relationship between the two men was discreet and almost clandestine. This biography presents a detailed picture of an extraordinary man, of humble origins, whose influence on gentlemen's tailoring, and upon the Prince himself, must have been far-reaching. This fascinating story presents a new angle on Georgian and Regency life, as seen through the eyes of a little French tailor who by his own efforts became a very wealthy propertied merchant. There is also a great deal of information on gentlemen's tailoring of the period, a subject sparsely covered in other publications, and we are regaled in detail with the clothes that were made for Prinny, when and where he wore them and how much they cost. Many of the anecdotes about George are included, but given new meaning because of the fresh information that the author has discovered. Some of Louis Bazalgette's descendants also enter the story. His eldest son Joseph William Bazalgette, R.N, served with distinction during the Napoleonic wars, and his grandson of the same name was the noted civil engineer who made such a difference to London. The author is Louis' great-great-great-great-grandson. Lovers of the period will be delighted by many previously unpublished items which have been uncovered during over twenty years of painstaking research.
