One hundred and twenty years ago, a man from a humble working-class background in the grim, industrial north of England, made a bold and brave decision. Robert Stanley - converted to Islam. Becoming Brother Robert 'Reschid.'

Fast forward to a hundred years later, and by an astonishing twist of fate, his own Great x3 Grandson also turned to Islam. But without knowing anything of Robert Reschid's incredible change of direction in life.
