Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membership Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim Dr Yasir Qadhi is one of the most notable public imams in the Western space and he never shies away from speaking his mind. He has recently authored a book on Salafism, its history and thought. I met Dr Yasir in Kuala Lumpur and we sat down to discuss salafism, the ideas of Ibn Taymiah and Ibn Abdul Wahab and how we should negotiate the deep divisions that have plagued our ummah for the past decades. Can we transcend our differences?
