Book Description
The present book takes the research and scholarship on Sayyid Ahmad Shaheed, the greatest Islamic revivalist of the nineteenth-century India, a step forward by studying his Movement from a socio-historic perspective and underscoring its strong impact, influence and contributions on its time and on the time to come. It argues on the strength of authentic sources that this was the most influential and successful Movement of its time in reestablishing Islamic values in the Muslim society and initiating a strong and persistent struggle for the freedom of India from the subjugation of the British colonialists. With a totally novel organization of material and sharp focus on the Movement's contributions, this book stands out as strikingly different from the previous books on this topic.

Book Description
The great renovator of Islam and Fighter for its cause that Sayyid Ahmad Shaheed was, ranks among those select and heavenly souls who were supremely blessed with an unshakable faith in god and his promises and had an implicit belief in the life after death. God had also cleansed his heart from the defilements of falseness, vanity and vain pretensions. The world and all its wealth, power and pelf, were to him valueless like dust. When the Sayyid was staying at Calcutta before embarking the ship for Hajj, Ghulam Husain Khan made bold to say, 'The ship you are going in is an ordinary one. It would be proper if you go by the ship 'Atiur-Rahman', which has sixty cannons on board and is captained by Muhammad Husain turk who holds the charge of forty ships. If you go to Arabic by it, the people there would think more highly of you'. This suggestion made the Sayyid's blood boil in anger. He said in reply, 'What did you say, Ghulam Husain Khan! Honor is given by God and not by Man. I regard the esteem and reverence of this world as a dead dog!'. The Sayyid so detested worldly fame and honour that he had earnestly prayed God that no trace of his grave might remain after his death. As, so it happened for God did not allow his sepulchre to be known and made a place of adoration by the coming generations. Viewed in this context, the Sayyid does not require that his successors, scholars, penmen and historians should either study and evaluate the efforts he had made for the revival of Islam or trade the effects of his movements on the later revivalist and reformatory movements. But the present generation of this millat, and those to come later on, do need to make a close study of accomplishments impartially and justly so as to allocate him the place he deserves in the history of Islam. This is an obligation we owe to him, and the sooner we discharge it, the better it would be for us.

Book Description
Founded by Sayyid Ahmad (1786-1831) of Rae Bareli, the Wahhabi Movement in India was a vigorous movement for socio-religious reforms in Indo-Islamic society in the nineteenth century with strong political undercurrents. It stood for a strong affirmation of Tauhid (unity of God), the efficacy of ijtihad (the right of further interpretation of the Quran and the Sunnah, or of forming a new opinion by applying analogy) and the rejection of bid'at (innovation). It remained active for half a century. Sayyid Ahmad's writings show an awareness of the increasing British presence in the country and he regarded British India as a daru'l harb (abode of war). In 1826 he migrated and established an operational base in the independent tribal belt of the North Western Frontier area. After his death in the battle of Balakote, the Movement slackened for some time but his adherents particularly Wilayet Ali and Enayat Ali of Patna revived the work and broad-based its activities. The climax of the Movement was reached in the Ambeyla War (1863) during which the English army suffered serious losses at the hands of the Wahhabis. This led the Government to take stern measures to suppress the Movement. Investigations were launched, the leaders were arrested and sentenced to long-term imprisonments and their properties confiscated. That broke the back of the Movement but it continued to be a potential source of trouble to the government. The Movement does not fit in neatly in any one of the groups and categories into which the history of the early resistance to British rule has been divided by some of the writers on the subject. It cut across some of them time-wise and theme-wise. The existing studies on the subject do not offer a comprehensive profile of the Movement and fail to analyse its nature and the reasons for its failure politically. This well researched study drawing on a vast array of contemporary records, many of them for the first time, seeks to fill this gap and presents an integrated account of the rise and growth of the Movement, its operation over the entire area and period of its existence, its impact and reasons for its failure.

Book Description
Today, more than ever, jihad signifies the political opposition between Islam and the West. As the line drawn between Muslims and non-Muslims becomes more rigid, Jalal seeks to retrieve the ethical meanings of this core Islamic principle in South Asian history. Drawing on historical, legal, and literary sources, Jalal traces the intellectual itinerary of jihad through several centuries and across the territory connecting the Middle East with South Asia.
