> Dear H-Net members:

> I am pleased to inform you that I have compiled a digital version of
> "Al-Islah", the weekly newspaper of the Khaksar Movement. "Al-Islah" was
> founded in 1934 by my grandfather, Allama Mashriqi (founder of the Khaksar
> Movement). The weekly newspaper details the ideology and role of Allama
> Mashriqi and the Khaksar Tehrik in independence; it also enabled the
> Khaksar Movement to spread its message and influence throughout India as
> well as abroad. The weekly newspaper is an important historical artifact
> that would be beneficial to professors, researchers, students, historians,
> etc. in understanding the independence movement in British India, which
> ultimately resulted in the creation of Pakistan and India.
>
> This digital publication will be available through AMZ Publications (USA),
> a publisher and distributor of books on Allama Mashriqi, the Khaksar
> Movement and Dr. Akhtar Hameed Khan. For availability information, please
