I was pleasantly surprised by the number of emails I received about the entry on Ahmad Al-Aidy’s new book, An-Takoun Abbas Al-Abd. Unfortunately, I don’t know where you can order the book online, and if I find out, I will post the information here. In the meantime, your best bet is to find someone who can get you the book from Egypt. (BTW, thanks, Randa!)
