Ladies and gentlemen, we have amids’t us, Bombay’s young but brilliant and irradiate speaker, Dr. Zakir Naik. Though he is a doctor by profession, but he has dedicated himself to the cause of propagation… propagation of Islam, in it’s right perspective.
He is founder General Secretary of Islamic Research Foundation (IRF.NET), which was established in 1991. He is… he has widely traveled within and outside country, and has delivered number of lectures. At such a young age, he has developed deep insight into Qur’an - which reminds us what Tagore has said that… ‘A lamp cannot light another lamp, unless it continues to burn it’s own flame’. It would be most unfair, if on this occasion, I ignore, I do not mention the distinguished parents of Dr. Zakir Naik, but for whose guidance and blessings, he would not have been what he is today.
