PURPOSE OF TRANSLATION
In the noble mission of Dawat-e-Islami, Jāmi‘ah al-Madīnah plays a pivotal role in nurturing scholars grounded in Islamic knowledge and devoted to the propagation of the Sunnah. Among the towering
personalities whose legacy continues to illuminate the path of
scholarship and spirituality is A‘lā Ḥazrat Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān ُةَْحمَر ِـهالـل هْيَـلَع — the great reviver of Islām in the 14th century Hijri. His
encyclopaedic works, deep insight, and unwavering defence of
Sharī‘ah have guided generations of Muslims across the world.
To ensure that his intellectual and spiritual heritage reaches Englishspeaking audiences, Majlis Jāmi‘ah al-Madīnah UK established a
dedicated department under the name “Fikr-e-Razā” (The Thought
of Razā). The purpose of this department is to introduce Englishspeaking students and readers to the thought, scholarship, and
reformative teachings of A‘lā Ḥazrat Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān.
A vast portion of A‘lā Ḥazrat’s invaluable writings including the
monumental Fatāwā Razawiyyah was authored in Urdu and Arabic.
While these works hold immense relevance for contemporary
Muslims, language barriers have limited their reach among Englishspeaking scholars and students. Recognising this need, Fikr-e-Razā
undertook the task of translating selected treatises into fluent,
accessible English while preserving the depth and precision of the
original texts.
