Ed merupakan generasi kedua imigran dari Bangladesh yang membesar di kota London. Sewaktu kecil, dia dididik dengan ajaran Islam tradisional. Keluarganya melibatkan diri dengan perkumpulan kerohanian yang diketuai oleh seorang sheikh dari India yang setahun sekali melawat Britain bagi membimbing pengikutnya. Memasuki kolej, Ed Husain mula berkenalan dengan gerakan belia yang lebih terbuka menerusi pembacaan terhadap Mawdudi diikuti Syed Qutb dan akhirnya Hizbut Tahrir menerusi tulisan Nabhani. Kita boleh anggap tulisan Nabhani ditangga pertama dalam skala radikalisme, manakala Qutb ditangga kedua dan Mawdudi ditangga terakhir. Oleh itu, jelaslah disini, bermula dengan pandangan yang ringan terhadap gerakan Islam menerusi Mawdudi, Ed Hussain kemudian disogokkan dengan bacaan yang bersifat radikal, ideologi negara Islam, sarana terhadap jihad sehinggalah yang mengajak untuk mengkafirkan bukan Islam dan aksi ganas demi matlamat 'suci' - iaitu mendirikan khilafah Islam. Namun, melihat kecelaruan dalam Hizbi, Ed memutuskan untuk mengundurkan diri dari pergerakan 'Islam'. Dia membetulkan kembali matlamat perjuangannya, mula menumpukan pada pelajaran, membina kerjaya dan berkahwin. Dalam masa yang sama dia mendekatkan diri dengan Islam dengan betul dari tokoh seperti Sheikh Hamza Yusuf dan Sheikh Abdul Hakim Murad. Ed dan isterinya, Feya memilih Syria untuk belajar bahasa Arab bagi memahami Qur'an dengan betul kemudian ke Arab Saudi. Perbezaan persekitaran Eropah dengan Syria dan Arab Saudi semakin memahamkan dia akan erti negara Islam yang sebenar. Islam tradisional, gelagat Wahabi di Arab Saudi dan pandangan-pandangan silap akibat dari kefahaman gerakan Islam (menerusi Mawdudi, Qutb dan Nabhani) telah membawa dia keluar ke jalan yang lebih baik.
Ed is a second generation immigrant from Bangladesh who grew up in London. As a child, he was educated with traditional Islamic teachings. His family became involved with a spiritual group led by a sheikh from India who once a year visited Britain to guide his followers. Entering college, Ed Husain began to get acquainted with the more open youth movement through readings on Mawdudi followed by Syed Qutb and finally Hizb ut -Tahrir through Nabhani's writings. We can assume Nabhani's writings ranked first on the scale of radicalism, while Qutb ranked second and Mawdudi ranked last. So, it is clear here, starting with a light view of the Islamic movement through Mawdudi, Ed Hussain was then bribed with radical readings, the ideology of the Islamic state, the means of jihad to the point of calling for disbelief of non -Muslims and violent actions for the sake of 'holiness' - namely the establishment of the Islamic caliphate. However, seeing the confusion within the Party, Ed decided to resign from the 'Islamic' movement. She readjusted her struggle goals, started concentrating on her studies, built a career and got married. At the same time he approached Islam properly from figures such as Sheikh Hamza Yusuf and Sheikh Abdul Hakim Murad. Ed and his wife, Feya chose Syria to study Arabic to understand the Qur'an properly then to Saudi Arabia. The differences in the European environment with Syria and Saudi Arabia are increasingly making him understand the true meaning of the Islamic state. Traditional Islam, Wahhabi behavior in Saudi Arabia and misconceptions resulting from the understanding of the Islamic movement (through Mawdudi, Qutb and Nabhani) have led him out on a better path.
