I should not be alive today. I was supposed to be a stillborn, destined for death upon arrival. Whenever I felt sad or depressed, my mother would remind me to be grateful for every day of life and to face life’s challenges with a smile. It was easier said than done.

"I need some guidance. How will I finance my college tuition? I mean, who will give a job or scholarship to a convicted criminal? Will I be able to get a job after I graduate?" Alex's concerns reopened my still-fresh wound.

Abdul Quayyum Khan Kundi is known for his contributions to Pakistani newspapers through op-ed columns. He has shared his insights on a wide range of topics including politics, social issues, and foreign policy. His writing has appeared in prominent publications such as Independent Urdu, The Daily Times, The Frontier Post, and Pakistan Today.

In a particular op-ed column dated December 14, 2011, Mr. Kundi discussed the emergence of a new multi-polar world order. He argued that American hegemony was being challenged by a collaborative effort between China and Russia, leading to the development of a new cold war scenario. This topic reflects his engagement with global geopolitics and international relations.

Mr. Kundi has also authored several books that delve into various subjects. His first book, "Freedom by Choice," is a compilation of writings that explore US-Pakistan relations, reforms in the Muslim world, and the balance of power in South Asia. This book showcases his keen interest in diplomacy and regional dynamics.

"Lessons from the Quran," his second book, focuses on Quranic verses with an emphasis on their relevance to social values. This work highlights his engagement with religious and ethical matters.

His book titled "Islamic Social Contract" is a significant effort to propose a political system rooted in the social values outlined in the Quran and the Sunnah (tradition) of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). Mr. Kundi believes that the Muslim world's political liberation can only be achieved by developing systems that align with Islamic cultural traditions. This book offers a framework for building stable societies, drawing from the context of reform movements like the "Arab Spring."

Finally, his book "Thoughts" is a collection of metaphysical speculations covering topics related to religion, philosophy, and science. This work reflects his intellectual curiosity and willingness to explore abstract and philosophical ideas.

In summary, Abdul Quayyum Khan Kundi is a multifaceted thinker and writer who has made contributions to the discussion of politics, religion, and global affairs, particularly within the context of Pakistan and the Muslim world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awe-inspiring
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2024
The opening lines build intrigue and curiosity, drawing reader to look for more.  He has extraordinary command how author or poets write and show control over hosting each words to paint evocative images.   Mr. A Q Kundi fits a word so delicately when he expresses minor room set-up, furniture craftsmanship and wall décor and fit the reader’s association and emotionally involve as part of the situation.  Very effervescently in the book he conveys ideas and view to tell a story which adds color and realism to novel writing.”

4.0 out of 5 stars A way to the middle
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2024
“Legacy of the Third Way” is a compelling read. Written as the main character records his personal history looking back over the 21st century. The experiences model how communication and compromise can find a middle ground in a very combative and entrenched political scene. It speaks to the present situation with the discontent of the two party system and rise of such movements as “No Labels”. There are a number of instances of text that is not common American English letting you know that the author is not a native speaker. As a result this book provides perspective from outside our system that might provide insight to how we as a nation might move forward. I give “Legacy of the Third Way” a big thumbs up.

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2024
Set a couple decades in the future, we follow the journey of Sher Shah, a South Asian man living in the United States, reflecting on his life’s most impactful moments. This novel was emotional, suspenseful, witty, inspirational, and engaging. It is perfect for Gen Z readers, as it goes over hot topics in today’s society such as the modern political climate and advancements in technology.
