Internationally recognized for his contributions to world peace, he has received the Demiurgus Peace Award, the Rajiv Gandhi National Sadbhavna Award and the Padma Bhushan. The World's 500 Most Influential Muslims named him 'Islam's Spiritual Ambassador to the World'. Well versed in both classical Islamic Scriptures and modern disciplines, he presents Islamic teachings in the style and language of the post-scientific era. He was conferred the Sayyidina Imam Al Hassan Ibn Ali Peace Award in May 2015. To spread spiritual wisdom based on peace, Maulana established Al Markazul Islami (the Islamic Centre) in 1970 and the Centre for Peace and Spirituality International in 2001. The monthly magazine Al-Risala was launched in 1976 and continues to be published till date. RAAMISH SIDDIQUI is the grandson of Maulana Wahiduddin Khan. He has been working as a volunteer for his grandfather's organizations (the Islamic Centre and CPS International) for the last decade and has participated in inter-faith seminars and conferences across the world. He is an MBA graduate and an entrepreneur. He is also a student of law. He actively engages in politics and social service and is therefore closely connected with people of diverse ethnicities and religions. His interviews have appeared in a number of newspapers and magazines. This is his first book.
