Is violence Islam's true message? No, said the great Muslim leader Abdul Ghaffar Khan. Islam's Peaceful Warrior: Abdul Ghaffar Khan tells the true story of Khan's amazing life. A close colleague of Mahatma Gandhi, Ghaffar Khan founded a popular movement of nonviolent Muslims in South Asia. In a profound spiritual victory, many of his followers chose to die rather than fight when confronted. He taught that being Muslim means never hurting another person, that men and women are equal, and that God gives victory to those who refuse to fight. Today, this is a message the world longs to hear.

Ghaffar Khan forged a close, spiritual, and uninhibited friendship with Mahatma Gandhi, the pioneer of non-violent mass civil disobedience in India. The two had a deep admiration towards each other and worked together closely till 1947. The Khudai Khidmatgar (servants of god) agitated and worked cohesively with the Indian National Congress, the leading national organization fighting for freedom, of which Ghaffar Khan was a senior and respected member. On several occasions when the Congress seemed to disagree with Gandhi on policy, Ghaffar Khan remained his staunchest ally. In 1931 the Congress offered him the presidency of the party, but he refused saying, "I am a simple soldier and Khudai Khidmatgar, and I only want to serve." He remained a member of the Congress Working Committee for many years, resigning only in 1939 because of his differences with the Party's War Policy. He rejoined the Congress Party when the War Policy was revised.

As the violent excesses of Islamic extremist groups dominate the media, Heathcote Williams brings us a timely account of another face of Islam - the amazing life of Badshah Abdel Gaffar Khan, who founded a 100,000 man 'Peace Army' during India's 1940s sectarian conflict. A devout and prayerful man, whose legacy as a spiritual guide lives on in the hearts of millions of Moslems, this Pashtun champion of world peace was a close friend of Mahatma Gandhi. BadshahKhna spent much of his life in jail for his political beliefs, and was tortured by the British; yet he lived well into his 90s, tirelessly committed to his 'jihad' of peace, kindness and gentleness, which Williams depicts with clarity and passion, deftly employing the sensitive economy of poetry.
