We learn with great regret and grief of the tragic death of one of 20th century'sgreatest authority on reality about Islam, Dr. Anwar Shaikh, in Wales, Great Britain on November 25, 2006. He will be mourned by millions who read his books and articles over several decades. Anwar, was ailing and in considerable pain for some time. Because of threats from Islamic fundamentalists, he was living in a high security home in Cardiff, Wales. Those privileged to know him personally or through his writings admired him for his originality and courage of conviction.
His death has taken away an intellectual giant from our midst. He stood for an era, for a century. His greatest achievement was to demolish Islam with the sword of logic and reason. He exposed it as the cult of brutal conquerors and the destroyer of civilisations.
His legacy is all the books and articles that he wrote and published. He will live through his word.
Anwar Shaikh (Converted to Hinduism called Aniruddha Gyan Shikha). After his conversion to Hinduism, he wrote many books to expose Islam as religion. His death is mourned across the whole world, especially in Bharat.
