Ali ibn Abi Talib (R)
This book is far more than a biography, as it discusses major
issues that have their origins in the early decades of Islam, the
repercussions of which are still felt today. In this book, Dr. Sallabi
guides the reader through a myriad of hadiths and reports, peeling away
the centuries-old layer of fabrications and distortions through which
hostile elements both in the Muslim world and beyond sought to conceal
the truth. What emerges is a clear picture of the first great turmoil
that engulfed the Muslim world and how the noble Companions of the
Prophet and the members of his family worked together to resolve these
momentous issues, following the guidance and teaching brought by the
Messenger of Allah.
The true battle for hearts and minds is that which is raging in the
Muslim world today, where many vested interests are seeking to distort
the very self-image of the Muslims. It is high time for us to reclaim
our history and to stop letting others tell it for us. This book is of
great importance as it sets the record straight on a period of our
history that is of major significance. Every Muslim who cares about the
big issues faced by Islam and Muslims should read this book.
