Sayyid ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Mahdī
This is a pioneering scholarly study of the colourful career of Sayyid ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Mahdī and his brainchild Neo-Mahdism. It explains his calculative strife to deal with the British onslaught on his father’s Mahdiyya, and to gradually attain the essence of its political and religious mission. The discourse contests the long held presumption of ʿAbd al-Raḥmān’s subservience to Britain, and portray’s him as the architect of national independence, and the Sudan’s most towering celebrity in the 20th century. It highlights al-Sayyid’s mastery of manipulation that perplexed, occasionally paralysed, British and Egyptian policy makers, and explores his attempts to establish an inclusive religious and political system. The book is important to scholars of Africa, the Middle East and Islamic revivalism. It may trigger revisits to similar leaders whose images could have likewise been unfairly tarnished.

Muhammad Galib Mattola, MA., (lecturer at UIN Alauddin Makassar and a member of t...
The Last Hour
The characters Gog and Magog are well known in many religious beliefs, albeit under different names. But the widest knowledge about them is found in the Islamic faith. In the Islamic faith, their names are Yecuc and Mecuc. Information about them is given in two suras of the last holy book, the Quran. In addition, the words of the last prophet Muhammad about them also give us information. However, both the verses in the Quran about them and what the Prophet Muhammad said do not contain clear information about who or what they are. Many books have been written to date about who they may be. However, none of these books contain information that goes beyond mythological stories. In this book, a ...
