The link doesn't appear to be loading - though I'm sure it's right, as Google brought up the same website. I'd love to critique it, but I can't until it loads!
First impressions - very nice site. The menu is very simple and clear to follow, and the graphics are all very professional. I like the offer of the week, and the fact that you have a clear photograph of each item you have for sale. On a side note, I find the inclusion of things like computer hardware on a Islamic site a bit odd, simply because it doesn't seem to go with the rest of your products, but what you have got there seems to be OK if a bit over priced. All in all, a good site and I wish you all the best for the future of the site.
This looks not too bad from the start but I'm noticing quite a few problems. I browse with a window width at about 800 px and I'm getting ahuge horizontal scrollbar with your site. If that big graphic in the middle wasn't so wide this wouldn't be a problem. Normally I would tell you to get rid of the right column but it looks like you've made good use of that. One article that has really influenced my perspective on homepages is Great HOmepages Really Suck by Cameron Moll. You've done a good job of providing multiple ways to enter the site.
Now, about the look and fell. IMO the high tech looking silvery design is extremely boring. This is a template, right? in the future I'm sure you could customize this, but for now at least find something a little more unique and appropriate. Maybe it's just me but silver metallic doesn't say "muslim" to me. The logo has a similar problem. The globe is such a tired idea. Do a search for globe logos and you'll see what I mean. Perhaps a uniquely muslim symbol would be more appropriate here. The logo should also be bigger and easier to read.
Most of the comments above are at point there. Heres what I can add up... The pics for books now all seem resized and pixelated, The left and Right Links might confuse other visitors, the look entirely is like a template, you need to scroll a lot more to see everything...
