Islam: A New Perspective in World-Culture

The present work is a comparative study of different cultures in their historical perspective with special reference to Islam and it’s contribution to world-culture. The style of the book is literary but the approach is analytical and convincing. The journalist in the literary personality of the writer has ensured objectivity which is otherwise difficult to maintain in such work as the present one; it is a unique compendium of fact and fiction, past and present, history and anti-history. The book is like a time machine taking its readers back into the ancient Babylonian, Egyptian and Sumerian culture with a return journey to the 21st Century, rolling out like a panorama such events as the contrivance of the Samiri, the expedition of a Yemenite ruler into Gujrat and Sind, the mysteries of Harappa and Mohen-Jo Daro, the stories of Rai Laxman Sen of Nadi, Lilavati, the daughter of Bhaskaracharya, the 4th Maratha War, the tragedy of Prince Mohammad Qua Aan, the Iranian twin sisters, Laden and Laleh Bijani, Baby 81 and host of other events that left their imprint on the sands of time.
