Prophet Muhammed's Rule
Léon Tolstoï1909

L. N. Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer, has read the “The Sayings of Muhammad (PBUH)” of Abdullah al-Suhraverdi printed in India in 1908. He has compiled a treatise from his readings and published it in the “Posrednik” Russian printing house.

Russian people, specially the Russian intelligentsia loved Tolstoy as a person with a celestial power and knew that news about his conversion into Islam would have caused the powerful trend into Islam in Russian society. Therefore, the Russian secret agencies like KGB have tried to conceal the treatise, to make people to forget it and hindered its publishing. Tolstoy acquainted the Russian readers with the sayings of the prophet Muhammad. He gave a lot of importance to the topics such as ‘poverty’ and ‘equality’, intended to give a good lesson to the Russian people and those who betrayed the Russian people.

Tolstoy has emphasized on Islam as an only religion of the true justice and equality, the true brotherhood and devotion, even the only religion of love and respect to humanity
