The Warren Beatty of Book Publishing

Thoreau once said that he had "“a library of nearly nine hundred volumes, over seven hundred of which I wrote myself.” Thoreau never met Sheikh Dr. Tahir ul-Qadri:

According to his online biography, Qadri was born in Pakistan in 1951 and was raised believing that he would become a religious leader, "since his birth had been foretold through a spiritual dream to his father." The former law professor says he has written some 1,000 books, 360 of which are already in print.

Link. The Sheik made CNN's list of "most intriguing people" yesterday for issuing a Fatwah condemning suicide bombers. H/T BAM for the clip and the headline.
