I am delighted to announce the publication of the second edition of my biography of Shaikh Muhammad al-Muhammad al-Kasnazan al-Husseini, the Master of the Sufi order Tariqa 'Aliyya Qadiriyya Kasnazaniyya. This is an improved and expanded edition of the first edition, which came out in October 2018. 
We all each now and then meet and hear about people who perform the daily obligatory prayers for a period of time then abandon it, then start again, just to stop praying after a while, and so on. The same happens with fasting. Some Muslims who do not observe the obligatory prayers still observe the fasting of Ramadan, and some of them would also observe the prayer during the holy month. But once the fasting month is over, the daily prayers immediately or shortly afterwards are abandoned. 
There seems to be growing acceptance that the length of the fasting day of Ramadan in high latitude places is too long for many if not most people to observe. Jurist have already addressed this issue in light of the fact that it is subject to “ijtihād” or “personal reasoning “. One proposed approach is to use the length of the fasting day in Mecca or Medina in in places where the time between dawn and sunset would be too long to fast. 
I am delighted to announce that my book Jesus the Muslim Prophet: History Speaks of a Human Messiah Not a Divine is now permanently available online for free and easy access. The book is a detailed comparative study of the nature of Jesus according to the Qur'an and the New Testament and other Christian sources. 
Celebrating the birth of the Prophet Muhammad has been a controversial issue for some Muslim who argue that it is a bad innovation. Yet honouring the Prophet’s birthday is a consequence of the love the Muslim has for him. This love, in turn, is necessary for one’s practice of Islam and drawing near to Allah. 
The newly discovered “Birmingham muṣḥaf” is among the earliest, if not the earliest, manuscripts of the Qur’an in existence. The text on these two leaves is identical to the text of the muṣḥaf we have today. Yet this has not stopped some from trying to turn the significance of this stunning discovery on its head, claiming that it questions rather than supports the preservation of the Qur’anic text! 
I am delighted to announce the publication of my new book The Wonders of Ṭarīqa Kasnazāniyya Brought to India. I edited, compiled, and wrote introductory material for the content of this book. This unusual work contains fifty-five reports of wonders that were witnessed by or involved the deputy of ḥaḍrat Shaikh Muḥammad al-Kasnazān in India during his preaching tours of that country in 2011-2015. 
Fanaticism and extremism should be fought in every way possible. Combating them with doctrinal discourse is necessary and useful. An even clearer and stronger argument is that such groups lack mercy, which Islam has made it a fundamental pillar of the Muslim character. Yet the argument of mercy is highly underused. 
I am very pleased to announce the publication of the Arabic edition of my book “Prophet Joseph in the Qur’an, Old Testament, and History.” The title of the book in Arabic is النبي يوسف في القرآن الكريم والعهد القديم والتاريخ. 
The fascination of some Muslims with the concept of “Islamic State” or “caliphate,” and according their attraction to ISIS, reflects serious misunderstanding of both Islam as a religion and the critical function of the first Islamic state, i.e. the one founded by the Prophet. It also shows ignorance of or deliberate overlooking of the un-Islamic aspects of the later Islamic empires.
