About the Book: ‘Let us be Muslims’ is a new edited English version of Sayyid Mawdudi’s Urdu ‘Khutubat’. It is no ordinary book, says Khurram Murad in his long introduction, for it has stirred more hearts and impelled more lives to change their course than any of his more erudite works. In these Friday congregational addresses, Sayyid Mawdudi expounds such familiar themes as Iman, Islam, the Prayer, Fasting, Almsgiving, Pilgrimage and Jihad. But, in an unusually beautiful, powerfully reasoned, eloquent and passionate, and yet simple and lucid style. About the Author: Mawlana Sayyid Abul A’la Mawdudi (1903-1979), in his struggle, he had to pass through all kinds of suffering: between 1948 and 1967, he was put behind bars on four occasions, spending a total of five years in different prisons of Pakistan: in 1953, he was also sentenced to death by a Martial Law court for writing a `seditious’ pamphlet, this sentence later being commuted to life imprisonment. In 1941, he founded Jama’at Islami, of which he remained Amir (Chief) until 1972 and which is one of the most prominent Islamic movements of our day. He authored more than a hundred works on Islam, both scholarly and popular, and his writings have been translated into forty languages. Author: Sayyid A.A Mawdudi
