Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Socio-Political Thought of Shah Wali Allah, far from being a study of the subject in isolation, fully reflects this great thinker's holistic manifestation of Divine unity. His thought synthesizes revelation, reason and empirical knowledge to construct a universal paradigm that integrates man's existential concerns with the moral and spiritual purposes of life, blending these seemingly disparate elements into a meaningful whole. The author of this work not only presents an analytical study of Shah Wali Allah's socio-political ideas, but also allows the great sage to speak for himself. He does so by rendering into English significant excerpts pertaining to socio-political matters from his magnum opus, Hujjat Allah al-Balighah.
