Men In Captivity

This booklet recounts the heroic deeds of Muslim Mujahidun in rescuing their brethren who were held captive by the leader of Cyprus in the seventh century Hijra. The Sultan mounted an expedition to release his men from captivity. Among those who participated in the rescue efforts, was a nine-year-old boy whose father, Abu Dhiya'-ud Din, had been taken prisoner.

This publication describes in a simple language how Muslim Mujahidhun, including the nine-year-old boy, were willing to sacrifice their lives for the cause of Allah and how even the boy's mother exhibited rare patience and courage in letting her only son join Jihad for rescuing their brother Muslim prisoners. The expedition was a great success and led eventually to the reunion of the father and his son.
