It would be quite a goo idea to have a some tasteful images (ideally not photos but maybe silhouettes) of the Kaaba, Al Aqsa mosque and perhaps a crescent moon, on the top right. Under contact and sitemap. Plenty of room on that blue patch. It will increase your sales greatly. Mood is everything in the business of selling. Amazing design otherwise! I love how when you add to cart it does it so smoothly. Top marks. In ethical terms I worry. On your about page where you say that your books are especially chosen to be ones not written by "deviants" it amuses me. Religion is a very profitable business I have to say. Religious jewellery, for example, really churns a lot of profit. And of course there is the charity status of all these purveyors of immortality... which allows them to collect 'donations' tax free to help them keep their trade running smoothly. In pure business terms I have to say to you - reading is dead. You probably want to start a site where education is sold in video and narrated form. Slowly but surely the old market of books and papers will disappear altogether into archives, libraries and history... videos. Ha ha. I almost said books. But again, you do know how to make a good website. Looks like plenty of effort was made.

HOWEVER: people may mix it up with Mecca Bookmakers, of course, that Khafirun establishment which used to help those inclined place a few quids on the GGs. I remember as a child my dad pointed to Mecca bookmakers and told me how much money an establishment like that makes and right there I knew which side of Mecca I wanted to live on.

To be honest, I don't like the logo very much. And I would add some effects to the webdesign - use rounded corners and some gradients. Also, you could add one warm color to the design - maybe orange or red.

I think, it looks good. The first menu link, "Categories" is too long. Goes down out of veiwport. The with of dowpdown list is small causing link text to appear on next line and is not visible because of that (see link above Quran and Audio and Video)

ahh, which eCommerce cms you've used? Or you wrote you'r own? Just curious !

Shouldn't "manufacturers" be changed to "publishers" ?

I dont like the logo much either.
Needs to be bigger, bolder and sharper.
