And We (Allah) have sent thee (Muhammad) not but as a mercy for all peoples. (Al Quran 21:108)

Mahatama Ghandi, the Most well known Indian Leader, the second most important person of the twentieth century according to Time magazine and man of the year in 1931

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (pronounced [ˈmoːɦənd̪aːs ˈkərəmtʃənd̪ ˈɡaːnd̪ʱi] ( listen); 2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the preeminent leader of Indian nationalism in British-ruled India. Employing non-violentcivil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahatma (Sanskrit: “high-souled,” “venerable”[2])—applied to him first in 1914 in South Africa,[3]—is now used worldwide. He is also called Bapu (Gujarati: endearment for “father,”[4]“papa.”[4][5]) in India.

But, for Albert Einstein, Gandhi would have been the man of the century, as determined by the Time magazine, for the twentieth century.

This collection of sayings of the Prophet Muhammad, may peace be on him, collected by Sir Abduallah Suhrawardy, with foreword by Mahatma Gandhi is not only a wonderful heritage for all the Muslims, but, also for a billion Hindus, in India and else where.

One of the first four Hadith quoted in this book is about the Golden rule, “No man is a true believer unless he desireth for his brother that which he desireth for himself.”

Allama Sir Abdullah al-Mamun al-Suhrawardy, M.A, Ph.D., D.Litt. (Oxon), LL.D., Commander of the Order of Medjidie, (1870 – 1935) was an Islamic scholar, barrister, and academic.

To read the book and the Foreword, in the Muslim Times: Sayings of Muhammed (saw).
