Assam’s “Doubtful Citizens” : Fact or Fiction?
A misconception prevails among many people outside Assam that “lakhs” of “Bangladeshis” are residing in Assam and exercising franchise. This misconception developed due to publicity of the AASU for more than three decades-long period with the help of some press and political parties like BJP, a high bureaucrat like S.L. Shakdar, and a Governor of Assam, S.K. Sinha. Dr. Ahmed, with the help of mostly public documents, shows that all this is emotional exaggeration, has no empirical or statistical foundation, and as such is nothing more than a self-composed chorus of some pseudo-intellectuals.

Golwalkar’s “We or our nationhood defined”: A critique with full text of the book
We are witnessing a concerted attempt by the RSS to establish MS Golwalkar as the ‘prophet of a resurgent India,’ ‘a saint,’ ‘the best son of Bharat mata,’ and the ‘biggest gift to Hindu society in the 20th Century,’… This inspite of the fact that Golwalkar, throughout his life, remained committed to the concept of Hindutva which meant an inherent faith in Casteism, Racism and Imperialism. He stood for the establishment of a Hindu rashtra, or nation, where minorities like Muslims and Christians could exist only as second class citizens. This book attempts to put across actual facts about Golwalkar’s life and beliefs in the light of his original writings, publications of the RSS, documents available in its archives and many other RSS documents the writer collected over the last 35 years from different parts of the country, especially the original text of his book We or Our Nationhood Defined (1939) which is being fully reproduced in this book. It is the most important text in order to understand the RSS’ concept of Hindu state, and has not been available to the public after 1947.
Hindu Nationalism and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh
“This book traces the history of Hindu nationalism with a special focus on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) as its prominent flag bearer. Through an in-depth study of archival sources and more recent documents, the author challenges the claim of Hindu nationalism as being primordial. He argues that in addition to being a modern construct, it laid the foundation of Hindu separatism or a two-nation theory which was later adopted by Muslim separatists like Mohammed Ali Jinnah.
This book describes the growth of Hindu nationalism and its appearance as Hindutva which glorifies Casteism, Racism and totalitarianism. This work also investigates how the book Hindutva authored by VD Savarkar (1923) and MS Golwalkar’s We or Our Nationhood Defined (1939) continue to determine the discourse of Hindu nationalism.
The author has spent more than three decades collecting and scrutinizing original RSS documents from different parts of the country, especially the ones relating to pre-Independence India. These documents are the foundation for the direction which RSS was destined to take as a sectarian Hindu separatist organization opposed to democratic, secular and egalitarian ideals. ”

Islam & Ahmadism – A reply to questions raised by Pandit Jawahar lal Nehru
Qadianism, or Ahmadism as its followers call it, was a rebellion against Islam – a sort of fifth column to destroy Islam from within. It was a British imperialist need to blunt Muslim resistance to the colonial power. The founder of the new faith, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, was never ashamed of his services to the British Empire.
Over the years a lie has been spread in the Subcontinent the Iqbal, the great poet-philosopher of the Orient and an ardent defender of pristine Islam, was a Qadiani himself! This lie has been lapped up by the Hindutva press in India.
This work shows that on the contrary Iqbal was forcefully opposed to Qadianism and regarded it as a rebellion against Islam. Here he responds to certain observation of Pandit Nehru (which are also reproduced).
Iqbal’s observations remain as relevant today as ever: they will help you understand why Muslims react so strongly against similar recent characters like Salman Rushdie and Taslima Nasreen…

Letters of Spies — How British captured Delhi in 1857
Little is known about the Revolt of 1857 from the rebels perspective. But there is a large body of official records, diaries and personal narratives of the British officials and others who witnessed the ‘Mutiny’. Even though these mainly contain the heavily biased British version, they also contain significant details about the rebels and their cause. For more than a decade the author has been collecting rare documents (in Persian, Urdu, English and Hindi) of the period of 1857 rebellion from India and outside.
Manipuri Muslims: Historical Perspectives 615-2000 CE
Manipur’s little-known Muslim communities have a long and rich history, dating from the time of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). In this exhaustive historical account, Farooque Ahmed traces the arrival of Islam in the region in 615 CE through the Prophet’s companion S’ad ibn abi Waqqas, an uncle of the Prophet, who also was instrumental in spreading Islam in China. Around the same time, an Arab Muslim family settled in the Manipur region and over the centuries Muslim traders, settlers and preachers helped the nascent community expand, flourish and thrive. These waves of migrations and local conversions coalesced into a unique identity of ‘Pangal Musalman’ reflecting the egalitarian and congregational ideals of Islam.

RSS: Marketing Fascism as Hindu Nationalism
Indian democratic-secular polity is passing through the most critical phase since its birth on August 15, 1947. It has been lately taken over by the RSS/BJP leaders committed to the Hindutva politics. This politics of Hindu separatism was neither part of modern India’s anti-colonial heritage nor has been faithful to the principles enshrined in the Preamble of the Constitution of India. The protagonists of Hindutva politics decried and continue to decry democracy, secularism, egalitarianism and an all-inclusive India. This book provides an insight into the philosophical moorings of the followers of Hindutva and their action plans to convert India into a theocratic Hindu State. This Hindutva project led by RSS is in full steam with the BJP victory in the last parliamentary elections held in 2014. It is no more a hidden agenda as the incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi identifies himself as Hindu nationalist. This study is based solely on the internal documents of the RSS/BJP and other fraternal Hindutva organizations. It is hoped that this RSS Reader will help researchers and common readers in getting acquainted with an ideology and its perpetrators who present the most lethal challenge to democratic-secular India. Shamsul Islam taught political science at the University of Delhi (1973-2013). As an author, columnist and dramatist he has been writing against religious bigotry, dehumanization, totalitarianism, persecution of minorities, Dalits and women. He is known for his work on the rise of nationalism, specially religion based nationalism and its development in India and the world. He writes in English, Hindi and Urdu.
Savarkar Unmasked
Quote by Khushwant Singh: [Savarkar] in his presidential speech at the Mahasabha conference in Ahmedabad in 1937, said: ‘As it is, there are two antagonistic nations living side by side in India’…The Hindu Mahasabha had no problem in joining the Muslim League Government in Sind and Bengal. He was also the supporter of the princely order and thought it would not be a bad idea if the King of Nepal became the Hindu emperor of India…If you want to recheck what I have written, take a look at Shamsul Islam’s book on Savarkar. —Khushwant Singh

آر۔ایس۔ ایس : ملک کی سب سے بڑی دہشت گرد تنظیم (Urdu)
اِس کتابچے کے مصنف ایس۔ ایم۔ مشرف نے نہایت گہرائی کے ساتھ مطالعہ کرکے انتہائی مختصر مگر جامع الفاظ میں ایک انتہائی خطرناک ، مکّار اور دہشت گرد تنظیم کا اصل چہرہ ملک کے سامنے پیش کیا ہے۔ آر ایس ایس کی اجازت کے بغیر بھارت میں پرندہ بھی پر نہیں مار سکتا۔اتنی طاقتور اور رسوخ کی حامل یہ تنظیم ملک کے تمام اہم اداروں پر قبضہ جمائے بیٹھی ہے۔ نتیجتاً ملک کے ہر کاروبار میں اس کی دخل اندازی دن رات جاری رہتی ہے۔ ہمارا ہمہ گیر مطالعہ ہمیں یہ بتاتا ہے کہ اس کی اجازت کے بغیر ملک میں کوئی بھی بڑا لیکن بُرا واقعہ رونما نہیں ہوسکتا۔ ہماری یہ تمام باتیں قارئین کو شاید مبالغہ آمیز لگیں۔ لیکن اس حقیقت کا اعتراف آر ایس ایس والے بھی نجی طور پر کرتے ہیں اور ہم جیسوں کو ان کی راہ کا روڑا نہ بننے کی اعلانیہ اور ڈھکی چھپی دھمکی بھی دیتے ہیں۔ آخر سوال یہ ہے کہ ہم اس تنظیم کی طاقت کا پورا اندازہ ہونے کے باوجود یہ قدم اٹھاکر خودکشی تو نہیں کررہے ہیں؟ لیکن اس وطنِ عزیز کی صدیوں کی تاریخ کا باریک بینی سے مطالعہ کریں تو پتہ چلتا ہے کہ ہمارے بہت سے مصلحین کو اسی کٹھن راہ سے گزرنا پڑا ہے۔ دراصل آر ایس ایس کا قیام تو صرف آزادی کی جدوجہد کی مخالفت کرنے کے لیے کیا گیا تھا۔ فی الحال آر ایس ایس اور اس سے قبل آریہ بھٹ برہمن وادیوں نے اکثریتی فرقے کو لوٹنے پر ہی اکتفا نہیں کیا بلکہ ایسا نظام قائم کیا ہے کہ ملک میں انارکی کا یہ دور دورہ ہمیشہ برقرار رہے۔ اسی لیے ہم یہ کتابچہ پوری ذمہ داری کے ساتھ اور جان ہتھیلی پر رکھ کر قارئین کے حوالے کر رہے ہیں۔
