"Semerkand English Magazine" invites its readers with the feature article titled "The Way of Noble Companions."

Prepared by our editorial team from authentic Islamic sources, the article emphasizes that the very first condition of being truthful and walking upon the straight path is to follow those who are themselves truthful. For this reason, the lives of the Companions — the exemplary generation for all Muslims — are presented. The piece brings together inspiring accounts from various Companions that touch upon every aspect of human life, enriched with narrations verified by hadith scholars.

In addition, the intellectual and thinker Halil Akgün contributes the essay "Are We Truly Embracing Ramadan?” offering a fresh perspective on how we approach the blessed month.

In the column “Reflections From the Age of Bliss,” readers encounter the life of the wealthy Companion from Medina, Sumame b. Usal, and his remarkable stance of boycotting the polytheists of Makkah.

The article “The All-Merciful, The Very Merciful” by Qur’anic scholar Sitki Çoban focuses on the third verse of Surah al-Fatiha, opening its meanings to reflection.

Also featured is "Maintaining Moral Integrity in the Modern World," reminding readers of the ethical principles and values that have been eroded in our age.

Finally, in “Those Who Reflect and Take Heed,” Salih Selçuk explores the wisdom contained in the many Qur’anic verses that call upon humanity to think, reflect, and contemplate.
