ABOUT THE BOOK
 
The book in hand is one of the most important works of Hakim al-Islam Mawlana Qari Muhammad Tayyib Qasmi which discusses one of the most imprtant principles of islamic Shariah, namely the Imitation of Disbelievers.
 
The Imitation of Disbelievers in their beliefs, practices and  behaviour is among the major reasons of the downfall of the muslim ummah and  most people do not even realise how serious and harmful this malpractice can be. On the one hand, it has removed the aversion to disbelief and practices of disbelievers from the hearts  of common muslims, and  on the other, it has made non- islamic culture and civilisation dearer to  muslim minds thereby weakening  their relation with Islam.
 
 What is more surprising is the fact that many advocates of this malpractice can be found among muslims who have tried their best to render the islamic injunctions concerning the issue of imitation as weak, useless, and impractical.
 
In addition to explaining the stance of Shariah on this matter, Hakim al-Islam has successfully countered and refuted the arguments, objections, and doubts that are often raised against the principle of Prohibition of imitation. 
 
This book therfore has become a reference point and a must have book for every teacher reformer and preacher of islam who seeks to bring a back the Muslim Ummah to the original path of Islam and to remodel them on the perfect  ideal of Sahaba and Tabieen.
