The 444th step... forward on and march!

A picture of me next to a certain old tomb in Perak. An abridged version of this picture was used alongside the writer's profile in my 4th book "Rumah Azan". Look at the article A collaboration of old collegemates - the book "Rumah Azan".



Ladies and gentlemen... as it turned out the article The Prophet's grandsons, Hassan and Hussein! made just now happened to be the 443rd in this blogspot. That set me thinking, why not make it a total of 444 before truly calling it a day? It also happened that my latest book (look at the recent article My 5th book is out! Ahlul Bait (Family) of Rasulullah SAW and the Malay Sultanates...) has 444 numbered pages. As it turned out the 444th page contained only my profile making it apt to fill this article, the 444th in this blogspot. Here it is, good night! :]



About The Translator

Radzi Sapiee's full name is Mohd. Fahrulradzi bin Mohamad Sapiee. Born on 26th November 1970 during the night of 27th Ramadhan, he has a Bsc. in Mathematics from the University College of London. He served as a journalist in the major Malaysian English daily The New Straits Times. He soon left to become a full-time independent writer, producing a Malay novel trilogy called "Berpetualang ke Aceh" talking about the meaning of being a Malay, the true legitimate function of royalty and how the Ahlul Bait, descendants of Rasulullah SAW were very instrumental in bringing true Islam to the Malay world and beyond.

Radzi's fascination with these subjects might be due to the fact that he comes from the Laksamana Raja Mahkota family, the Perak nobles who actually have Acehnese, Buginese and Perak-Melaka royal blood. He has also written a hard-cover coffee-table book called "Rumah Azan" which features mosques and related histories.
