In continuation of this service, we are pleased to present part four of the Farsi work ‘Yaksad Mawzu, wa Pansad Dastan’ by Sayyid Ali Akbar Sadaqat. The translation from Farsi to English was carried out by Shaykh Shahnawaz Mahdavi. I would like to personally thank both Sayyid Ali Akbar Sadaqat and Shaykh Shahnawaz Mahdavi for their efforts in bringing this collection of very practical, inspirational and motivational stories into the hands of lay-people.
The ‘Anecdotes for Reflection’ series has proven to be very popular amongst all sectors of the community. Indeed some of my own Zakir colleagues make use of them for lectures, as do Madrasah teachers for their lessons to the younger generation. The far-reaching effects of what Shaykh Sadaqat and Shaykh Mahdavi have produced will inshallah be appreciated for years and generations to come, ameen.
I pray to Allah (SWT) to reward them amply and to grant them increased success in their lives in this world and the hereafter. Shaykh Abbas M H Ismail Islamic Education The World Federation of Khoja Shia Ithna-Asheri Muslim Communities Dhul Qa'dah 1433 / October 2012 Next
