This invaluable book contains a wide selection of questions and answers about Islam, ranging from the light-hearted to the profound. Dr. Darsh deals in a friendly and practical manner with issues and situations that affect us all today, in a society in which it is not always easy to be a Muslim.
Shaykh Dr. Ad-Darsh a scholar of Islamic Law and expert on family matters (born December 26, 1930, died September 25, 1997) was an outstanding scholar, thinker and journalist whose contribution to the British Muslim community was outstanding. Highly respectable, approachable and sensitive, he was the peoples' Imam (leader) who conducted his affairs with dignity, wisdom and style. Nobody was better qualified to perform the task of guiding British Muslims in their struggle to build a vibrant and dynamic community.
His other contributions ranged from youth work to relief efforts. He was one of the founder trustees of the charity, Muslim Aid; a patron of the Federation of Student Islamic Societies in the UK and Eire (FOSIS) and the Muslim Student Societies (MSS); and a friend of women's organisations such as the north London-based An-Nisa Society and the Association of Muslims with Disabilities. He was also the President of the UK Islamic Shari'ah Council. (Fuad Nahdi, Editor Q News)
