About the author
Hajj Ahmad Thomson was born in Zambia, where he spent the first 16 years of his life. After receiving his formal education in Zimbabwe and England, he accepted Islam in 1973 at the hand of the Raja of Mahmudabad, may Allah have mercy on him, the first director of Regent’s Park Mosque, who gave him his Muslim name. Ahmad subsequently went on Hajj in 1977, 2001 and 2018. The author and co-author of several books, he currently practises as a barrister specialising in Charities, Discrimination and Muslim personal law (www.wynnechambers.co.uk). In the words of Shaykh Moulay al-‘Arabi ad-Darqawi, may Allah be pleased with him:
“Do not say, ‘I am nothing.’
Do not say, ‘I am something.’
Do not say, ‘Something concerns me.’
Do not say, ‘Nothing concerns me.’
Say, ‘Allah!’
– and you will see wonders.”
