His work, Pakistan as a Peasant Utopia (1992), depicts how religion, family, and factional links cut across class lines in East Bengal from 1920 to 1947, resulting in the communalization of class struggle between peasants and exploiters. This book seeks to provide light on peasant politics, which is nearly synonymous with Muslim politics in the Bengal region, from 1920 to 1947, a critical period when East Bengal was undergoing the political process that culminated in the establishment of East Pakistan in 1947. His work, Women and Islam in Bangladesh: Beyond Subjection and Tyranny, won the Justice Ibrahim Gold Medal (Bangladesh) in 2001 and became a bestseller in Asian Studies.
