The global spotlight is once again on a critical geopolitical discourse as Revisiting the 𝑫𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑳𝒊𝒏𝒆: 𝑯𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑳𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒍 𝑷𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔 by 𝐃𝐫. 𝐋𝐮𝐭𝐟𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐚𝐡𝐦𝐚𝐧 (published by 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐈𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐝) gains international recognition in 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬.
Dr. Rahman’s extensive archival research (𝟔𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎+ 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐋𝐢𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬) challenges long-standing 𝐀𝐟𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧 claims regarding coercion, misunderstanding, and temporality of the 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Grounded in the V𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 in respect of Treaties, the 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 reinforces 𝐏𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧’𝐬 position. Dr. Rahman’s work reframes the discourse from emotion-driven narratives to evidence-based geopolitical analysis. At a time when 𝐏𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧-𝐀𝐟𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 remain fragile, such scholarship is essential to cut through rhetoric and inform policy with facts.

Upon visiting the graves of family and friends, you get to finally realize that you do not go there to bid farewell, instead it is to say: “See you soon.” You pray upon them until one day, you are prayed upon, you visit them until you are visited. But you still love them and long for their company and wonder about them, while you are still in this world. Where are they? Do they know how I am feeling? Do they know when I visit them? Do they hear me? What should I be doing to make things better for them? And what should I be doing to make things better for myself, while I wait to hopefully join them, in the company of the righteous? This short book takes you on a journey of knowledge, wisdom and guidance for those left behind.

In this life, even an atom’s worth of good is accepted, if it is done with sincerity. In the hereafter, the whole world in gold will do one no good. On the Day of Judgement, from the moment you rise from your grave to when you take your place in the great assembly, from when you are brought forth to be held accountable for your deeds, to preparing to cross the Bridge (Ṣirāṭ), there are good deeds that you have sent forth that will come to your aid.Deeds that will take you by your hand and testify on your behalf, that will settle your feet and shade you from the scorching heat, that will light your way in the darkness and guide you to the abode of eternal delight. So do not ask your Lord when the Day of Judgement will be, but ask yourself what deeds have you prepared for that day.
