Abstract

Sayyid Abul Hasan Ali Nadwi was a prolific writer and a great scholar of Islam during the 20th century. He taught at Nadwatul Ulama, Lucknow and wrote a number of prominent history works along with other themes of Islam. However, his main concern was history of Islam and Muslims and da’wah. He authored around 50 books, which are thought provoking and covered almost all aspects of Islamic sciences and Muslim history and culture. He also stood for social reform and religious revival of Muslims throughout the world. He was a defender of Islamic faith and promoter of Islamic identity through his works. His works have a depth of knowledge and good intellectual content which needs to be analyzed. This paper analyses his major works, Insani Dunya Par Musalmanu Ke Uruj wa Zawal Ka Athar and Tarikh-i Dawat wa Azeemat.
