The Role of Faith in Times of Turmoil - Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad

In his address during the Imam's Conference, Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad makes a strong case of what the role of Imam's is, following the difficult years that have followed 9/11. Here he talks about the need for scholars to be independent of external forces and to act in an impartial and sincere manner without marginalising the young and vulnerable. He also highlights the crises of legitimacy amongst the Ulema being the biggest challenge facing scholars. His address highlights the need for scholars to try and overcome the state of failure by doing more to build communities through the internal discourse of religion.
