The blessed life of Syedna Farooq Azam is the bright chapter of Islamic history which has left all history behind. He performed such remarkable deeds in the administration of the government and unprecedented justice and fairness, strict supervision of the government officials, protection of the rights of the subjects, sincerity of intention and deeds, jihad for the sake of Allah, asceticism and worship, piety. and devotion to God and calling. That human history is unable to provide an example of them. No ruler is second to Farooq Azam in his deep recognition of human behavior, timely awareness of every individual’s condition and not tolerating any obstacle in the way of justice and justice. He was a figure of great simplicity, humility and modesty, with his immense awe, glory and arrogance. You say that our honor is due to Islam and not due to the glare of the world. Among the rulers who came after Syed Naymar Farooq, whoever wanted to be a successful ruler had to follow the golden principles established by Farooq Azam, which changed the destiny of the Muslims of that era. Books have been written by various scholars and historians to know about Syed Na Umar Farooq ‘s conversion to Islam and the subsequent circumstances and his rule based on justice.
The book under review “Seirat Umar Farooq ” is authored by Honorable Muhammad Reza, which contains the biography and achievements of the second Caliph Syedna Umar bin Khattab . The Prophet ﷺ said, “If there was a prophet after me, it would be Umar Farooq.” During his caliphate, the boundaries of the Islamic Empire were spread to two million square miles. Even the non-Muslim intellectuals were forced to write that if there was an age and maturity, there would be no unbelievers left in the world.
May Allah Ta’ala accept this effort of the author, translator, and publisher. And grant all the people of Islam the opportunity to live like the companions of the Prophet and the rulers of the Islamic world to follow the footsteps of Sayyidna Umar Farooq.
