The Silver Dirham (The Power of the Shahadah)

Luqman Nagy’s “The Silver Dirham (The Power of the Shahadah)” by Darussalam attempts to relate the fantastic story of one Samanid dirham, from its humble birth in the silver mines of Badakhshan to its eventual surprise arrival in the New World. The story spans a thousand years and affirms the enduring power of the Kalimah al-Shahadah La illaha illa Allah (‘There is no Deity worthy of worship other than Allah’). to change lives even in today’s turbulent and uncertain world.
