maulana, agla sawal dilli se hai. al qamar azad sahab ne kiya hai. unhone likha hai: "What is the true way of rediscovery of Islam?" is ke bare mein bataein. hamari kitabon ko padhiye. kyunke hum ne rediscover kiya hai. hamari kitab ka naam bhi yahi hai: "Islam Rediscovered". to hum ne puri zindagi isi mein lagai ho. islam ko rediscover karne mein. hum ko islam na madrasay mein mila tha, na society mein mila tha, na logon ke zariye mila tha. to hum ne phir se rediscover kiya.

tumhari sari kitabon ka ek hi title hai: "Discovery of Islam" ya "Rediscovery of Islam". to is ko padhiye aap. padhne ke baad aap ko koi sawal baqi raha hai to wo kar sakte hain aap. abhi to aap pehla kaam hai ke aap is ko padhein. kyunke hamara kaise hai ke hum ne, yani jo traditional islam tha, wo is ka mutmaeen nahi hue. hum ne chaha ke asal islam ko janiye. yani Allah aur rasool wale islam ko janiye. to hum ne puri life laga di isi mein. phir jo islam hum ne discover kiya, us ko hum ne kitabon mein likha. to as a test case dekhiye is ko

us ke baad sawal kijiye. maulana, ye sawal aaya hai muhammad ilyas sahab ka chennai se. unhone likha hai: "Maulana, ek sahab ne kaha ke iqtadar hamara maqsad nahi, zarurat hai." Maulana, is mein jo mughalta hai, us ko wazeh karein.
