Description :

This book reveals the origins of the ground breaking legal edict (fatawa) about the use of video technology to propagate Islamic education by Shaykh al Islam w'al Muslimeen, Allama Sayyad Muhammad Madani al-Ashrafi [may Allah Almighty preserve & protect him]. 


The fatwa, controversial in certain quarters at that time, but now used as the benchmark by all the Islamic TV channels, led to Shaykh as-Sayyad Ahmad Kazmi, alayhi ar-Rahman, [popularly known as Ghazali al-Zaman] to give the title of 'Ra'is al-Muhaqiqeen' (Master of the Researchers) to Shaykh Muhammad Madani al-Ashrafi.


Virtually all of the earlier staunch opponents of the fatawa have now appeared in front of the camera or host their own programmes in television studios. 

'Ra'is al Muhaqiqeen' - Allama Mufti Shaykh Sayyad Shah Muhammad Madani miya al-Ashrafi, may Allah preserve him, [Spiritual Heir & Successor of Muhaddith al A'zam al Hind, May Allah be pleased with him] is one of the most highly respected Scholars of Islam in the contemporary world today. Through his discourses and wise words he has made a tremendous impact on millions of Muslims all over the world. He is a true Shaykh, a Sufi and a Master of Spiritual traditions. Shaykh al Islam belongs to a highly respected family of Sadaat (Sayyads) in the sub-continent. He comes from the 'Ashrafi' family of Kicchocha Shareef. His Eminent father was a very famous and prominent scholar of Hadith and a great Shaykh too, who was rightly honoured by his contemporary Ulama (scholars) and Shaykhs, as 'Muhaddith al Azam al Hind' (a prime scholar of Hadith in the sub-continent).  


Shaykh Madani miya has recently completed writing a commentary on the Noble Qur'an al Karim, called Tafsir-e-Ashrafi.
