Ahmed Hussein Diddat (July 1, 1918 - August 8, 2005) was an Islamic preacher known for his debates and writings comparing Islam and Christianity. He founded and headed the Islamic Propagation Center International in Durban, South Africa, and received the King Faisal Prize for his efforts in 1986. Ahmed Hussein Diddat was born in Tadkahr Far, Surat district, India in 1918 to Muslim parents, Hussein Kazem Diddat and his wife Fatima. His father worked in agriculture and his mother helped him. After nine years, his father moved to South Africa and lived in Durban, where he changed his agricultural work and became a tailor. Ahmed Hussein was brought up on the teachings of the Sunnis. He joined the Islamic Center in Durban to learn the Quran, its sciences, and the rules of Islamic law. In 1934, Sheikh Ahmed completed the sixth grade and then decided to work to help his father. He worked in a salt shop, then moved to work in a furniture factory, where he spent twelve years, gradually rising in ranks from driver to salesman and then manager. During this time, he also joined the Sultan Technical College (as it was called at the time) and studied mathematics and business administration. The turning point in his life came in the 1940s when he encountered a Christian mission in the salt shop where he worked, and he was unable to answer the many questions they had about the Islamic religion. Sheikh Ahmed decided to study the Bible in its various English editions, as well as the Arabic copies, in order to find someone to read it to him. He conducted a comparative study of the Bible and, after finding himself fully knowledgeable in the field, he decided to leave all his business ventures and dedicate himself to the Islamic call and confront Christian missionaries. He found a book called "The Truth Revealed" by Rahmatullah Hindi during his work arranging the storerooms in the furniture factory. This book discussed the Christian missionary attack on Sheikh Ahmeds original homeland India after the British defeated it. Based on this, the English planned to convert Muslims to Christianity in order to ensure their continued existence in India for a thousand years. They started bringing in waves of Christian missionaries to India, and their main goal was to convert Muslims. This book was one of the reasons that opened up Sheikh Diddats horizons to respond to the doubts raised by some Christians, and he began his approach to invite the People of the Book to dialogue and ask for proof and evidence from their books. Sheikh Ahmed started using what he learned from this book to respond to missionaries, then started agreeing to visit them in their homes every Sunday after they left church. He then moved to Durban city and faced many missionaries as their main opponent. He subsequently traveled to Pakistan in 1949 and stayed there for three years. Ahmed Diddat married and had two sons and a daughter during the period he worked in a textile factory. Afterward, he returned to Durban, South Africa, where he became the director of the same factory he had left before his trip, and he stayed there until 1956, delivering morning lectures every Sunday to an audience of between two hundred and three hundred people. After the end of the experiment, a British person who converted to Islam named Fairfax suggested that Ahmed Diddat study the comparison between different religions and teach the audience how to use the Bible in calling for Islam. Fairfaxs lessons continued for several weeks or about two months, then he disappeared. Ahmed Diddat suggested to them to fill the gap left by Mr. Fairfax and continue from where he stopped because he had gained knowledge in this field. He spoke to them for three years every Sunday. The Sheikh was bold in defending his religion and as a result, many Christians from all over the world converted to Islam under his guidance, and some of them are now advocates for Islam. In 1959, Ahmed Diddat stopped his work to devote himself to the call to Islam through organizing debates, seminars, and lectures. In his pursuit of this role, he visited many countries and became famous for his debates with prominent Christian religious figures such as Floyd Clark, Jimmy Swaggart, and Anis Shorosh. He founded the Peace Institute for training preachers and the International Islamic Propagation Center in Durban. Ahmed Diddat authored more than twenty books, millions of which were distributed for free, in addition to the debates that were published. He delivered hundreds of lectures worldwide. As a result of his extensive efforts, Sheikh Ahmed Diddat was awarded the King Faisal International Prize and was given the title "Professor". In 1996, after returning from Australia after a missionary trip, Sheikh Ahmed was struck by his illness, which left him bedridden for nine years. He reportedly suffered from a stroke in the basilar artery in April 1996 due to several factors, including being diagnosed with diabetes for a long time. He learned to communicate with those around him through a series of eye movements with a specific chart to form sentences and words by recognizing the intended letters from this chart. He spent the last nine years of his life bedridden at his home in South Africa, where his wife Hawwa Diddat took care of him. He passed away on the morning of Monday, August 8, 2005, and his wife Hawwa Diddat died a year later on Monday, August 28, 2006, at the age of 85. Ahmed Diddat is considered one of the most profound scholars of the various texts of the Gospels, as he was a Muslim scholar specialized in the Christian Gospel. He was given many titles, including "The Conqueror of Missionaries," "The Man with the Mission," and "Knight of the Call." Diddat also taught many disciples who followed in his footsteps, including prominent figure Dr. Zakir Naik.
