Excerpts from reviews of some of the above-mentioned books: 1. Writing about The Human Rights Tradition in Islam (in the Muslim World Book Review 2008), Dr. Murad Wilfried Hofmann had the following to say
2. On Imperialism and Nationalism in the Sudan, "The best work on the development of Sudanese nationalism yet published," Richard Hill in AFRICA[9] "This is an important contribution, not only to the history of the Sudan, but also to the whole struggle between European Imperialism and the nationalism it begot in Africa and Asia." THE ECONOMIST. "A solid contribution to the political history and constitutional development of the Sudan," Robert Tignor in THE MIDDLE EAST JOURNAL[10] "... An interesting and detailed account of the Sudanese body politic... (which) makes breathtaking between the lines reading ... this outstanding scholar ... this well balanced and lucid study." BIBLIOTHECA ORIENTALIS "A concise and pivotal study of the constitutional development of the Sudan..." Robert Collins in THE JOURNAL OF AFRICAN HISTORY[11] "... Throws fresh light on many important issues and its publication ... will be welcome to both the specialist and the general reader ... a readable, comprehensive piece of scholarship based mainly on unpublished sources ... carefully researched and clearly presented." ARCHIVE ORIENTALI "While Sudanese constitutional history has been described in a number of works, most of these studies have been written by British or Egyptian scholars and officials who have concentrated on explaining (and justifying) the policies of their countries. Muddathir Abdel-Rahim provides a detailed and balanced scholarly account from the Sudanese perspective ... The book is obviously essential for understanding modern Sudanese history and should be of real importance to students of British Middle Eastern policy and those interested in the growth of nationalism in colonial areas." John Voll in THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MIDDLE EAST STUDIES. In addition, he has also published a number of articles in learned journals in Arabic and English. Several of his works have been translated to other languages.
