Not a single line in the book has been penned without supportive evidence or reference…. The present work commands historiacal importance. So deep and thorough a study of the Quran and the Hadis – In other words, of Islam itself – had not previously been presented for our Hindu brethren by any Hindu thinker. Prof. More’s work is truly commendable… This book, which Sheshrao has authored after meticulous and thorough study, is an important an unprecedented achievement. It is an invaluable contribution to literature on Islam. An erudite work of this degree of excellence is exceptional… The work will inspire- as well and more thorough inquiry into Islam. If we want non-Muslims to study Islam, we must welcome, appreciate and encourage well-researched works like this publication, irrespective of all differences of opinion… The contents of most of the book are in conformity with the perspective assumed by the Quran, the Hadis and Islam itself.” – From the ‘Foreword’ by five Muslim scholars. “Prof. Sheshrao More is a well-known author and research scholar in Marathi literature.
