This is an updated version of my earlier book on My Late Father with added articles and images! He was a Great Personality of rich history between continents – and came and went – and after more than 15 children – grandchildren and great grandchildren!
Born in Oman and went to East Africa at age of 25 with his first children (boy 7 and girl 5) in that dhow (sailing boat) and return decades later after the bloody Zanzibar Revolution of 12th January 1964.
A story of Migration of peoples between continents – and intertwined with the histories, lives and legacies of countries in East Africa and in Oman!
He was a person with Great History and A Story To Tell! For good of mankind and society! A Great Person Came – and he went! Born and bred in The Oman Interior – from Omani Parents and Grandparents – and he went and returned from Tanzania (Zanzibar) – it is what you are that makes you! Not what others colour you – and that want you to be!
A simple pious person who knew great personalities in his life but chose to remain on his own - contented proud and satisfied – and to Allah God only he turned his prayers and needs!
A very handsome person who never chased girls – who never drank nor smoked! A fining shining example to his children and grandchildren – family, friends and relatives – and The Society as a whole!
I hope you will like reading about him! Here is A Story To Tell!
