Description
In a prose infused with drama, yet authenticated by citation from firsthand and recent sources, Dr KK Muhammed Abdul Sathar traces the place outlook and disposition of Mamburam Sayyid Fazal Tangal (1824-1900) his roots among Ba Alawis in Yemen to the blood- sked Malabar of the 19 century. There are references to Syed Fazl as a religious scholar, reformer and spiritual guide, all these roles buttressing his political stance against the British and their yes-men, the landlords of the erstwhile Malabar Syed played a pivotal role in enhancing the spirit of revolution among Mappilas so much that the British had to deport him to Arabia. He went to Turkey and served as a plenipotentiary of the Ottoman Caliphate. During the struggle for India’s independence, he turned out to be a leader in exile, inspiring national leaders like Muhammad Abdul Rahman Sahib from afar. Roland Miller, the famed Mappila historian, writes in the foreword of the book As the son of the distinguished Mappila writer, Muhammad Abdul Kareem, who in a 1970 Malayalam work introduced us to Syed Alawi, the father of Syed Fazl, Dr Sathar is following his own scholarly chain.
