"Maulana Husain Ahmad Madani (1879-1957) was a political activist, Islamic scholar, and supporter of Gandhi during the struggle for India's independence. Immersed in Islamic scholarship from an early age, he sought to apply Muslim teachings to the urgent issues of his day. Humane and fiercely dedicated, whether campaigning against the separation of Pakistan, or in favour of democracy and inter-religious peace, he fought relentlessly for what he believed in." "Barbara Metcalf's biography is informed by Madani's letters and autobiographies, spanning a lifetime of campaigning and controversy. Interspersing personal insights with detailed knowledge of the prevailing political climate, Metcalf creates an intimate and revealing account of one of the most important men in the history of modern Islam." --Book Jacket.
