JazakAllah for asking.
Yes there are good books that you can read. You can also teach them to your family and friends, use them in debates and recommend them to other Muslim brothers & sisters, as well.
These are the books that every Muslim household should have.
[See below]
1/
1) THE IMPOSSIBLE STATE
A good book to read on Islam and modern state and how the two are in contradiction. This is a MUST MUST read. I can't stress this enough. You will also learn about the superiority of Sharia and Islamic governance over modernity and modern state.
Three short threads on The Impossible State:
1)
2)
3)
2) BROWN SKIN WHITE MASKS
This is a must read too. It is about how the Western Imperialism seeks to justify its invasion and atrocities under the guise of women rights and minority rights.
Remember this: feminism has always been a tool to justify colonialism and imperialism.
Here is a short thread on it:
LIBERALISM: A COUNTER HISTORY
In this book you will explore the dark history of Liberalism. Liberalism is closely tied with slavery, genocide, colonialism, ethnic cleansing, WWI and WW2 etc.
Once you read this, you can destroy any liberal in a debate.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
A short thread on Liberalism a counter history where a challenged a Liberal on some basic definitions:
ISLAM IN LIBERALISM
Very important book on the topic of how Islam was viewed by Liberalism, how ideas about "islams" were generated and spread to justify invasion and colonialism. Ch2 talks about how feminism was deployed to justify colonialism.
Again A MUST HAVE BOOK.
THE SILK ROADS
This is not essential to Islam and Liberalism but the general history from the beginning of history till now. It dispels many of the eurocentric myths (ch 10,11,12). It is about how the West, in fact all of history, has always been defined by the East.
ISLAM AND SECULARISM
This is also a must have book. It is about how Islam and Secularism are in contradiction, and also how Islam is superior to Secularism. I have benefitted a lot from it.
