The Cambridge Companion to Sayyid Ahmad Khan
Examines Sayyid Ahmad Khan's life and contribution in the nineteenth century and his legacy in our current times.
Sayyid ʻAbd Al-Raḥmān Al-Mahdī
This is an engrossing analysis of ?Abd al-Ra?m?n al-Mahd?'s initiative to abandon the futile political violence and religious fanaticism of the 19th century historic Mahdiyya.

The British Empire and the Hajj
The British Empire at its height governed more than half the world’s Muslims. It was a political imperative for the Empire to present itself to Muslims as a friend and protector, to take seriously what one scholar called its role as “the greatest Mohamedan power in the world.” Few tasks were more important than engagement with the pilgrimage to Mecca.

The Gospel According to Sayyid Ahmad Khan (1817-1898)
The Gospel According to Sayyid Ahmad Khan (1817-1898) offers an annotated translation of Tabyīn al-kalām (Part 3), a commentary on the Gospel of St. Matthew (Chapters 1-5) by one of South Asia's most innovative public thinkers. Broadly known for his modernist interpretation of Islam, Sayyid Ahmad Khan (1817-1898) appears here as a contemplative mystic who is determined to show the interrelated nature of the Bible and Qur'ān, and the affinity of Christian and Muslim scriptural exegesis. Uncommon in the history of Christian-Muslim relations, Sayyid Ahmad Khan presents what can only be described as a serious reading of the Gospel. The work includes an extensive introduction to the early Church in general, and the development of the Trinitarian doctrine in particular. Never before presented in English, the text sheds important new light upon the spiritual and intellectual journey of this leading modern interpreter.
