Research And Publications
Abraham Fulfilled is a book about the authors’ argument that the Bible contains prophecies about the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, connected to Abraham’s son Ishmael and Arabia. It examines biblical passages and responds to objections to that interpretation. It is a religious and apologetic argument, not a neutral biography of Abraham.
Adnan Rashid co-authored peer-reviewed research with Nidhin Olikara on medals awarded under Tipu Sultan’s rule in Mysore. Read the article, “Awards of the Khudadad Sarkar: Medals from Tipu Sultan’s Mysore”, in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society.
