During January to March, 1948, Sayyid Abul A’la Mawdudi (1903 - 1979) gave a
series of five talks, in Urdu, on Radio Pakistan, in which he dealt with the broad and basic
principles of moral, political, economic, social and spiritual teachings of Islam. They were
immediately published in books and have also been translated into several different languages,
the first English translation appearing in 1950. A greatly improved version was published by the
Islamic Research Academy, Karachi under the title The Islamic Way of Life (Lahore, 1967). It
contained a new translation and an additional chapter on the Islamic Concept of Life,
compiled from various writings of Sayyid Mawdudi and providing a concise introduction to
the view of man and universe as given in the Divine guidance, which forms the basis of the
Islamic way of life. This additional material (contributed by Khurshid Ahmad) was intended to
guide the reader to a clearer and better understanding of the basis and content of Sayyid
Mawdudi’s short radio talks.
