This erudite scholar was born in England and has gained licenses to teach (ijaazas) in many Islamic sciences including Qur'an, Jurisprudence (Fiqh) and Traditions (Hadith) of The Prophet (SAW) from various Shyukh.
Following the completion of his secular studies at the age of 16, he enrolled at Dar al-Uloom al-Arabiyya al-Islamiyya, Bury (a satellite college to al- Azhar University), where he initiated his studies of the Alimiya course. Thereafter, he studied 3 years in the presitigious seat of learning al-Jamia al- Islamiyya Karachi, Pakistan.
Abdullah ibn Zubayr, the Grandson of Abu Bakr, nephew of Aisha, son of Zubayr ibn Al-Awwam, one of the ten guaranteed Jannah and Asma (known as the one with the two waist belts). Sahaaba (may Allah be pleased with them) would say three things; no one disputed regarding Abdullah ibn Zubayr "His bravery, eloquence and worship". He was the first child to be born in Medina; upon nobody's birth were the Sahaaba as happy as upon the birth of Abdullah ibn Zubayr. The Seventh Caliph, his final discussion with his mother is one of the most touching that history has ever captured. It exemplifies the bravery of mother and child.
What the Prophet (peace be upon him) has said is truly right, " Later Muslims will be many but they will be like froth in the sea which follows as the wind dictates". As a result materialistic matters become of primary importance and little thought is given to how Allah wants the W add ro be. In this situation there will exist discrimination, squabbling and a corrupt state, the rich becoming richer and the poor becoming poorer...

European Depictions of The Prophet (saw) A Historical Account
Shaykh Zahir explains the rights of the Prophet peace be upon him over the believers, and the love that his Companions exemplified for him. The Shaykh also illustrates how many of the most influential thinkers of Europe demonised and vilified the Prophet peace be upon him for over a thousand years. Thus the current caricatures printed in a number of European newspapers are reminiscent of an age old bigotry and enmity.
In this time of firm (tribulation), Shaykh Zahir rakes a journey through the past stories detailed in al-Qu'an the final Revelation, to extract Allah's guidance for the modern day. Among these stories is the account of Musa's (peace and blessings be upon him) dealings with Pharaoh and considers the cunning tactics of Shairan along the way.
Shaykh Zahir
Shaykh Zahir explains in detail the encounter of the companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him), Rabi b. Amir and the second in command of the Superpower of the day, Rustum. A riveting encounter which led to the battle of al-Qadsiya. The defining battle between the Muslims and the Persian Superpower
