The Minaret Speaks uses an effective device to portray the cycle of events in the Indian subcontinent's Islamic History. A lofty minaret in Delhi built by Qutbuddin narrates both the happy and the tragic times it has witnessed over seven centuries. It highlights the achievements of successful rulers and the failures of others and also focuses on the demise of Muslim power in the wake of British imperialism. Muslims living outside the subcontinent particularly in the West will appreciate this enlightened portrayal of British onslaught on Islam in India. It offsets the often biased versions found in school textbooks.

Timeless and judicious, originally written in Arabic, it examines the role Islam played in history and its impact on human progress and the loss that humanity suffered by its decline. It counters the prevailing attitude that Islam is a spent force, that it has outlived its usefulness. The author persuasively argues for the eternal reality of Islam and that it is a programme of life which is always dynamic and can never grow obsolete. This thought-provoking tour de force throws new light on the motives, opportunities and impact of the Islamic and other civilisations, on the material welfare and spiritual progress of humanity.
