World events spark local author to write book on Ismaili Muslims

World events spark local author to write book on Ismaili MuslimsA couple of major world events prompted Mansoor Ladha to write his book.

The first was 9/11: the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City.

The second was the publication of a series of cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad in Denmark which drew angry responses from Muslims around the world.

“They kind of pressed all Muslims in a negative limelight,” says Ladha, of Calgary, whose booked is titled A Portrait of Pluralism: Aga Khan’s Shia Ismaili Muslims.
