Summary
Details

The present work Rise and Fall of Muslims: Its impact on the World, written over seventy years ago has contemporary relevance for Muslims working towards Islamic renewal. It is a bold attempt that departs from a conventional understanding of Islamic history, Muslim predicament and challenges. Rather, it interrogates the question on a broader level: What has the world lost to the changing fortunes of Muslim collective identity? Shaykh Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi does not make sweeping generalisations but frames global dilemmas through the lens of Islamic teachings. As a traditional 'ālim he brings insightful thought on the challenges faced by the ummah. As an eminent scholar of history and intellectual trends in the West and Islamic world, his in-depth knowledge has important bearing on critical issues facing Muslims.

Sayyid Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi (1913-1999) was indisputably one of the greatest exponents of Islam in the second half of the twentieth century. He was Rector of Nadwat al-Ulama (Lucknow, India) and executive member of international Islamic organizations. He received the King Faisal Award and numerous other awards from national and international bodies for his service to the cause of Islam. Shaykh Nadwi was a powerful, eloquent orator and writer in Arabic and Urdu. Many of his publications have been translated into English and other major languages.

Abdul Kader Choughley is a South African Scholar whose major writings focus on Islamic revivalism (tajdīd) in South Asia. His recent work, Sayyid Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi: Life and Legacy has been translated into Italian. Another noteworthy contribution to Qur'anic studies is his comprehensive study of the tafsīr tradition in South Asia.
