``The servant was very cross and held him tightly. ``

This sentence is the one jarring note I read. Held him tightly seems to be a rather too literal translation of Urdu. ``Kas key pakar liya....`` can be translated into a better turn of phrase.

Ralph:

With all due respect, I think you clearly underestimate Naqshbandi. Though I have had my fair share of disagreements with Mr. Naqshbandi, he is an individual with a multi-faceted personality and has the capability of surprising you.

Anyways, it is the article and not the author that is important. These stories are nicely written and visually appealing. Very nicely done.

Cheers.

Don`t know anything about these men. They may even be genuinely respectable folks. But Asif Naqshbandi`s association with them is all the smoking gun I need to convince me that something is terribly wrong here. For Non Muslims, there cannot be anything good here. If wisdom and peace is what we need, we should look for it elsewhere.
