Thomas Patrick Hughes, Notes on Muhammadanism — Preface to the First Edition (1894)
“ If we call upon the millions of Islam to loose from their moorings amidst the reefs and shoals of a false system, and to steer forth into the wide ocean of religious inquiry, we must surely direct them to some fair haven of refuge where they will find rest and peace. ”
Thomas Patrick Hughes, Notes on Muhammadanism — Preface to the First Edition (1894)

It is a solemn thing for a Christian Missionary to be engaged day by day in unsettling the religious opinions of immortal beings, unless he feels that he has something good and true ”
Thomas Patrick Hughes, Notes on Muhammadanism — Preface to the First Edition (1894)
“ For everything in religion, in law, in life, and in thought, has been measured for all time, Muhammadanism admits of no progress in morals, law, or commerce. It fails to re generate the man, and it is equally powerless in regenerating the nation. ”
