As the war on Islam intensifies, and as the day approaches when the imposter Euro-Jewish State of Israel would make its bid to become the ruling State in the world, and the false Messiah (i.e., Dajjal) would rule the world from Jerusalem and declare that he is the true Messiah, I fear that there would be many, particularly governments which declare their friendship for USA and hence for Israel, who would want to ban books on the Qur'an. I therefore pray most humbly, and ask my gentle readers to also kindly join in the prayer, that Allah Most High might protect books (such as this humble quartet of books on Surah al-Kahf) that use the blessed Qur'an to explain, to expose and to challenge those in the godless modern age who are waging wicked war on Islam. Amin. This first volume of four, containing 'Text Translation and Modern Commentary of Surah al-Kahf', makes its appearance just before our main work on the subject entitled 'Surah al-Kahf and the Modern Age' is to be published, and is meant to function as a companion volume to that main work. We propose, Insha Allah, to publish a third and fourth volume on this subject in which we would like to offer to the reading public a comprehensive and credible modern interpretation of the Ahadith and Qur'anic verses dealing (directly and indirectly) with the critically important topics of Dajjal the false Messiah or Anti-Christ, and of Gog and Magog. If any such books have already been written and published, they must be very few indeed. And so the four volumes would have the following titles: · Volume One: 'Surah al-Kahf: Text Translation and Modern Commentary'; · Volume Two: 'Surah al-Kahf and the Modern Age'; · Volume Three: 'Dajjal the False Messiah or Anti-Christ'; · Volume Four: 'Gog and Magog in the Qur'an and Hadith' The writing of all four volumes on Surah al-Kahf was kindly sponsored in the names of a number of people in different parts of the world as follows: Rabia Aboobakar Hussein Jakhura and Aboobakar Hussein Jakhura of Malawi in Africa, Abdul Majid Kader Sultan and Fatimah Abdullah of Malaysia and Hajjah Haniffa Bte Omar Khan Sourattee and Allahyarhama Hajjah Mariam Bte Fakir Mohammed of Singapore. May Allah Most Kind bless them, have mercy on their souls and forgive them their sins. Amin! Imran N. Hosein In the island of Trinidad. August 2006
