Sheikh Abdul Fattah Abu Ghudda

This is a loose abridged translation of one of the biographies from the book Prominent People in the Contemporary Islamic Movement and Call. Previously I put up posts on Dr. Mohammad Natsir, Sh. Muhammad al-Khidr Hussein, and Ustadh Mohamed Abdelhamid Ahmed.

A couple of short answers

Things have been hectic, hence the last two week hiatus. I am still working on that loooong article on humor in classic texts, but in the meantime the buffer has filled up with things I’ve been meaning to post. So a few entries to follow. The long post will most likely come next week inshaa […]
