Great son of a great man, a hero of our independence struggle for creation of state of Pakistan. May Allah rest him in peace & raise his rank in Janna tul Firdose, Aameen
A great son of a great father. How nice it would have been if I had met both of them. I am redressing this by compiling a presentation volume In recognition of political, academic and intellectual services of Allama Muhammad Asad.
A really great personality allama Muhammad asad.May allah shower his blessings upon allama asad grave.I am a Pakistani and a herbal medicine doctor in Lahore.a packet of greetings from Pakistan for allama Muhammad asad family.
Tala Asad you really are a wonderful person and i really appreciate your work to the humanity. We humans neglect a lot of aspects that define our attitudes, moral belief and values, but tend to bite on other parties with out a thorough examination. You have emphasized on couple of crucial points that is worth re-examining ourselves with logical approach in order to come with conclusions then conclude, yet still ambiguous in some respect. God bless you. Peace.
@M. N. Yousuf you might have reservations, but to give opinions on whether he was munafiq is disgusting. His translation has been scrutinised but to make conclusions on his iman after he has passed away is wrong. if some of his work is wrong, then it is his mistake but he has done alot to contribute to the ummah. critique him, but to reduce his work by giving opinions on his life as a muslim which is a function that can only be exercised by Allah who has the only power to do so, is condemnable.
M. N. Yousuf All translations to any language have deficiencies. As Muslims we should not talk ill of anyone who’s not here to defend themselves. You don’t know what was his Iman at the time of his death. Abdullah Bin Ubayy was a blatant enemy of the Prophet and the leader of the hypocrites. Look how the Prophet treated him at the time of his death. Muhammad Asad is not that at all. He was a Muslim who was not perfect. Try to refrain from judging someone’s iman especially after their death. It’s Allah’s decision in the end.
M. N. Yousuf Conspiracy theories. Calling me a jew or a Jewish agent lol I disregard everything that you said. Learn to be respectful and not believe in theories you see. Read his books. There is nothing there which is against Islam. There is no point in talking to you. May Allah guide you and us all from spreading prejudice against people who are innocent.
@M. N. Yousuf you are stupid, uneducated and have no qualifications to criticize someone based on one word which its literal meaning is surrender to God. go back to library and read
He is a great son of a great father who took an active part in the Pakistan movement and a close associate of Alama Iqbal and Quid e Azam. May Allah bless Alama Muhammad Asad in eternal peace in Jannah
I am surprised at the British queen which knights someone like Salman Rushdie, who had no good contribution through his "novel" writing, while not even promoting someone like Talal Asad
Why should they promote someone who doesn't serve their interests? The question to really ask if we don't honour our own intellectuals. The queen is irrelevant
his fathers son leopold weiss aka muhamad asad the best islamic convert the west ever gave the islamic word...his translation of Quran is still baned in Saudi Arabia and as such remain one of the best and by all means unique...also his book "road to mecca"is a facinating book...
He is from a Jewish father and a Saudi mother from a tribe originally from the city of Hail, in what is now the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. His father is the best Islamist in the West and he was a very revered person
I guess I must be about the same age as Talal Asad. I was 21 when the 1967 war took place. I felt no sense of "exaltation" about the result, and knew nobody else who did either, but then I didn't read the Daily Mail, then or now! Talal Asad links this to the 1956 war (the "Suez crisis"). People of my generation were mostly only too happy to exalt (retrospectively) about the outcome of THAT war, Eden getting his well deserved comeuppance, and collapsing out of office. A dose of humiliation and the puncturing of his imperialistic atavism was all to the good. Not so good was Eden's 1956 partner in crime -indeed in a conspiracy of false pretences and deceit- Israel, triumphing in a significant regional war. Eden's successor, MacMillan, was another Tory grandee of the grouse moors, but he was much more of a realist and conceiver of the future and did slam the Churchillian imperial delusions of Eden into reverse, announcing "the wind of change". People like me aimed another sort of wind in his general direction, but I really don't think anyone but some screwed up far right romantics was sore about what happened in 1956 in 1967. It was a new world by then, OUR world, OUR generation was taking over and these old farts and the mess they'd made of the world could piss off. That was the general climate of those times as I remember it. I can only conclude that at an elite British university Talal Asad was seeing and hearing too much of the rising generation of Tory grandees of the grouse moors, but I suggest they were very unrepresentative and that he was probably (no reflection on him) living in a class-based cocoon of unreality, the class which thinks it has a right to rule, the class of Cameron, Osbourne and Johnson now, but is generally held in contempt and derision.
CORRECTION: I've just looked him up and Talal Asad is actually quite a bit older than me -14 years, in fact, so he was 35 in 1967. It doesn't seem, however, that he gained a broad enough view of the tenor of British society at the time to have this impression of "exaltation" at the outcome of the 1967 war. If he'd been smoking spliffs with us, he'd have got a different impression! Many British Jews had a different impression, too. It was sort of break, the point at which many lost patience with the zionist project as its earlier socialist and internationalist ideals were seen to be shattered, and British Jews have been divided into strongly pro and anti Israel camps ever since. The secular opposition to zionism became established alongside the religious opposition, at the same time as a new "religious zionism" emerged.
His father was Jewish and married a Saudi Muslim woman from a large tribe from the Saudi city of Hail. He is half Muslim from Saudi Arabia on his mother's side and his Jewish father is from Austria.
@@M_A_R_33 "half Muslim because of him mother, quarter Jewish based on the probability of him mother's pre islamic ancestors, a quarter zionist based on his father's Eastern European origins, half Austrian National based on his passport, half Pakistani national based on his other passport, ect ect . .... what is such nonsense. .... ??? He is either a Muslim or not; what's half Muslim ???? Additionally, he may be called half Arab and possibly half Jewish based on his mother's and father's ethnicity. If his father's forefathers were converts to the Jewish faith , then his ethnicity is not half Jewish.
There was a certain amount of jingoism in 1956 and resentment in the right-wing UK press, and certainly not from the Liberals or Labour Party. As a student of Egyptology in 1967 I remember no such jubilation at the ignominious defeat of Egypt. If anything, realization of who the Jews in Israel had become was beginning to dawn on people.
@M. N. Yousuf Take time to read his books in English. Identify where his mistakes. It is dangerous to point a person a munafik. A very heavy accusation without clear evidence
❗"The United States is preparing provocations to accuse Russia of using weapons of mass destruction in Ukraine" - Igor Kirillov, head of the RCBZ troops of the Russian Armed Forces "The Russian Ministry of Defense has information that the United States is preparing provocations to accuse the Russian armed forces of using chemical, biological or tactical nuclear weapons."б
His father Lepold Weiss was a member of the Jewish secret societies. In Saudi Arabia he was engaged in disintegration of Ottoman Empire. After completing his task his society sent him to Allama Muhammad Iqbal who was a freemason. He brought the Idea of Pakistan and introduced it to Iqbal. Allama took this idea to Allahabad UP where he floated the idea of Pakistan comprising Sindh, Punjab, Baluchistan and NWFP. In his address Bengal and Kashmir was not included. My question is who sent his father to Allama Iqbal?

Mr. Talal, I am currently reading your father's book. So amazing father you had.
@M. N. Yousuf u r the munafik...........
M. N. Yousuf most nonsensical comment
@M. N. Yousuf rip english
@M. N. Yousuf don't speak so certainly of that which you cant be certain of, Muhammad Asad's affairs are with Allah, nothing much more to say
@M. N. Yousuf

Yesss, i am reading the "Road to Mecca", it is wonderful.
monjiaitaly i haven't read it, but i saw the movie, with bing 'n bob.
@M. N. Yousuf I don't think that is true. Mohammed Asad converted to Islam and is buried in Spain in a Muslim graveyard.
God sent this beacon of Light spreading light through 'The Message of Quran' and many other great publications, serving mankind.

Pakistani by nationality. His father was a Jew and his mother an Arab from Saudi.
His father converted to Islam
His mother is from a tribe from the city of Hail in northern Saudi Arabia, and his father converted to Islam after marriage
man, nobody ever seems to remember who Muhammad Asad was....dammit
i do. I'm from a backward cotton mill town in lancs.
I do and I read his books in Australia after I had already converted to Islam.
