“Having come back this morning from the recital of the tragedy of Karbala from an Islamic centre in London, I found your book ‘Karbala-The complete picture’ on my bookshelf which I have been meaning to read for a while.
“This evening I have finished reading your book page to page without being able to put it down. Never have I read an account so clearly written and well referenced.
“I just wished to thank you for your efforts in writing it. It has been written so simply and wonderfully I have passed it on to my teenage sister who I am sure will benefit from it just as much as I did.”
