Jzk for clearing this up (you do get 'exclusive clubs' in Islaam), I am no longer residing in Cape Town, I am in JHB.

I have found an interesting biography of Murabitun leader, Ian Dallas in this link.

There is The Book Of Strangers, published in 1972, a novel that is about the search for knowledge and the awakening to Islam told in the form of a semi-autobiographical parable (Pantheon Books). There is Letter To An African Muslim (1981), which helped inspire a whole generation of South Africans to enter Islam at a time when apartheid still restricted the options available to most blacks. Shaykh Abdalqadir was the only white European who could freely walk the streets of Soweto, although the Apartheid regime banned both him and his book.

I would like to know if there is any interaction between him and the Deobandi scholars in South Africa.
