Correspondence with Maulana Sadruddin Islahi

further debate or counter-argument would not be of any benefit. I remain just as convinced of the validity of my views as I was before. However, if you do not find any significant weight in them, then naturally, the discussion should come to an end. I have already shared the full extent of my knowledge and understanding; if any part of it proves useful to you, that is good— otherwise, you are free to disregard it. Recently, I was quite disappointed to learn that a letter addressed to me by the Ameer of the Jamaat, which I had placed inside an envelope along with your second piece of writing, inadvertently reached you. This likely happened because I forgot to remove that letter while returning your writing. In this regard, it might not have occurred to you that keeping someone else’s letter is inappropriate. Reading it—and then neither returning it to the concerned person nor informing them—would be even more so. In any case, I now request you to return that letter to me kindly. You had taken back your second brief writing with the promise of revising it and sending it again. I am still waiting for that promise to be fulfilled. Wassalam, Sadruddin
