A few of these are alluded to in this diary. It is also worth noting that we authored some Fatwas which were not published online. These Q&As and articles are important to read in conjunction with this diary, as they form an important part of the Covid timeline and narrative. The following web page features links to all the published Q&As and articles in reverse chronological order. Some were also translated into other languages including French, Spanish, German, Swedish and Urdu. These were published online and also referenced by public authorities such as the NHS, academics along with the local, national and international media. Al-Ḥamdulillāh, we answered more than 100 Q&As on Covid related matters and also authored some articles, resources and guidelines. Second, this diary provides context to some of the Covid related Fatwas on our website. Every attempt has been made to ensure that the dates are correct. Several points are worth noting in this regard:įirst, the entries prior to are based on memory, other writings of mine, and external sources. Now that two years have passed, I thought it useful to revisit the diary and publish it online. However, on (10 Ramadan 1441), I started to write a diary, thinking that it shall not exceed a few months. Initially, I did not pay much attention to this.
Two years have passed, and Covid-19 has transformed the world, although the media attention has turned to the ongoing war in Ukraine in recent weeks.Īt the beginning of the pandemic, a very dear friend Dr Riyad Kallingal who I was liaising with very closely on Covid related matters suggested to me that I should pen a diary for the benefit of future generations. I am currently on the Istanbul to London Heathrow Turkish Airlines flight, and a flight attendant has reminded me to wear the face mask.
