The Mahdi Of Allah

""The Mahdi of Allah: The Story of the Dervish Mohammed Ahmed"" is a biographical book written by Richard A. Bermann. The book chronicles the life and times of Mohammed Ahmed, a Sudanese Sufi mystic who became a prominent religious and political leader in the late 19th century. Ahmed was believed by his followers to be the prophesied Mahdi, a messianic figure who would lead a revolution against the British colonial forces in Sudan. The book explores Ahmed's early life, his spiritual journey, and his rise to power as the leader of the Mahdist movement. It also delves into the political and social context of the time, including the British occupation of Sudan and the tensions between the Muslim and Christian communities. ""The Mahdi of Allah"" provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most influential figures in Sudanese history and sheds light on the complex dynamics of colonialism and religious conflict in Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
