Bengali Wins Freedom (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798330216246)

Many people often asked me what motivated me to write the first edition of "Reluctant Fathers." To be honest with the readers, I need to admit that it was not my intention to write or publish the first book in the first place. In October 2006, I promised myself that I would never talk to Bengalis about Bangladeshi politics.

In 2018, I came to work in Alexandria, VA, for Block Advisor as a Tax Advisor. I was looking for a room to stay for the tax season next to a Masjid because, during the month of Ramadan, I frequently wanted to go to the Masjid, and for the last ten days, I was looking forward to staying in the Masjid.

In the Masjid, the hot topic was Bengali and Bangabandhu, and people were generally hateful toward Pakistanis rather than engaging in studying the Quran. In the month of Ramadan, they should have been talking more about the merits of Ramadan; instead, they were busy discussing the greatness of Bengalis. It felt pretty disturbing to me.

Secondly, I regularly went to a restaurant for lunch in Falls Church. In that restaurant again, Bengali and Bangabandhu were the highlights of all discussions, and the majority took part in hate speech against Pakistanis, which finally led me to make up my mind to write the book "Reluctant Fathers."

I would like to remind those who skeptically believe that Pakistan ISI or Indian RAW financed me to publish the books. No, absolutely not. No one paid me to publish the book. I paid from my pocket.

And those who skeptically believe that I am a Jaamati, for your information, I do not belong to any political parties or their political ideologies in Bangladesh or any part of the world. For that matter, I am an independent USA citizen and an ordinary Muslim born in a Muslim political family in Sylhet, Bangladesh.

However, I am the grandson of a Muslim League founding member and son of a late Muslim League leader, and that specific political background compels me to write this book. The "Bengali Wins Freedom" reflects on past political issues in the Indian subcontinent. I would like to mention that I do not intend to hurt anyone's personal feelings or emotions in writing about political, social, economic, and religious issues. I just want to make the history straight.

I intend to maintain an independent political perspective and neutrality free from political, religious, and cultural bias. That said, I am a born Muslim and have gained Islamic knowledge in the Aqeedah throughout my life, which might reflect, to some extent, in my writing.

I wrote this book from whatever I heard in my childhood. Then, I verified it by researching in public libraries to correlate to my existing knowledge of Indian subcontinental politics and found documentaries on YouTube and Google about Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi political issues, actors, and events. I am confident this book is a practical and accurate historical political issue for both countries, Pakistan and Bangladesh,
