☀️ A SHINING SUN ☀️
“The prime concern of Habib Ahmad throughout his life was to call people to God. He invited non-Muslims to Islam, urged Muslims to practise their religion more thoroughly, and took the lovers of God along the path to proximity to Him. To accomplish this to the maximum degree he prepared himself by learning the religious sciences, disciplining his soul, and travelling to meet the great men of God, before deciding upon East Africa as the most suitable stage for his dawa. His outstanding personal charisma, together with his knowledge and indomitable drive, made him rise in the African sky like a shining sun above other scholars and men of God engaged in the same pursuits. The influence he had on the world in his time makes his story worth telling, and this is the reason for writing this book.”
“A Man of Many Splendours” by Dr Mostafa Al-Badawi.
