Selam Alaikum brothers,

here is a fatwa concerning copyright.

http://islam-qa.com/en/ref/102352/copyright

If you do copy, Insallah make dua for the author and others with rights.

thanks for all the info.
I wonder what Muslims should react against lack of copyright in Muslim countries?and what government should do?
maybe there is copyright in some Muslim countries but there is no serious react from them in recent years...

Its not that they dont have copyright laws, its just that nobody can or is willing to enforce them.

I've been strongly considering to stop piracy, however i'm still iffy about it.

Also, lifehacker is correct, they do indeed have copyright laws, but nobody really cares for them because it's not in the governments hands (and let's face it, piracy isn't a priority for the government to deal with in these countries).

Please, is there a way to pay a token for the books downloaded here. This intellectual properties are days, nights, weeks, months and years of the author's efforts. Please, I will be interested in paying a token that can be passed on to the authors. These are books I cannot buy all the hard copies due to the space they will consume and the burden they might constitute.

May God forgive our shortcomings. I really want to pay a token.

Can we set up a way to pay back some token to the authors of these book, ya akhi? I really want to pay a token for the books I downloaded.

Mobilism always encourages users to support authors/developers. If you like it, support them with a donation or something to help them out
