Should Britain Welcome Homegrown Islamic Scholars? | Shaykh Sohaib Saeed | Full Podcast

Описание: Shaykh Sohaib Saeed is a Scottish Muslim raised in Glasgow and an Islamic Scholar. He has studied at Edinburgh University, SOAS and Cairo's prestigious Al-Azhar University. He is a traditional Islamic scholar who founded the Ibn Ashur Centre, is Head of Research for the Bayyinah Institute, an organisation teaching Arabic and Qu'ranic studies with global reach.


We get into the complexities of being a Western Muslim, how Islam has adapted to different cultures, the difference between shaykhs and imams, diversity within British Islam, whether Muslims have to follow practices that aren't part of their culture like polygamy, if Muslims are experiencing an intellectual crisis, the birth of home-grown scholarly institutions, the impact of 9/11 and counter-extremism efforts, whether the government should support moderates, the impact of social media shaykhs, and at the end, a surprising method for countering extremism from a religious perspective.
