The sincerity with which he lived his faith in war and in exile, his nobility of spirit, and humanistic Islam ultimately won him admirers all over the world, but especially in France, whose generals fought him for 15 years.

Mine is also a Muslim worldview as expressed by the Emir Abdelkader, the Algerian "George Washington plus"---holy warrior, Sufi mystic poet and statesman who gave the French ulcers for 15 years as they decided whether and how to colonize Algeria.
In the end, Abdelkader became a respected world figure because of his Islam, an Islam that required him to save the lives of 8-10,000 Europeans who were being massacred in Damascus by other Muslims at a time when he was living there in exile.
The local GIA emir wanted him to issue a fetwa justifying the killing of civilians who supported the Taghout--the evil, oppressive government that they were trying to overthrow.
