Exemplars for Our Time with Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, Michael Sugich and Peter Sanders

Описание: On Saturday 2 July 2022, Bradford Literature Festival hosted the worldwide launch of ‘Exemplars for Our Time’ with Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, Michael Sugich and Peter Sanders with a capacity audience at St. George's Hall.

Exemplars For Our Time is a collection of short, photographic essays aimed at introducing a new generation of young people to some of the greatest living Muslim sages of the 20th and 21st centuries.

In traditional Islamic societies, living sages are the embodiment of spirituality and enlightenment, serving as inspirational role models for their communities.

However, the rise of extremism and atheism within contemporary Islam is increasingly being attributed to the loss of connection between these paragons of virtue and the everyday Muslim.
