A visit to the Al-Mahdi Institute symposium on Fadak

poisoning let's take a look at this fadak issue I want to explain that it's right so on momento momento people right so I've explained previously that which was quite brief but I've been asked to go over it I have looked into this in much more detail now gone through you know the entire hadith involved a lot of the history I also had the opportunity to go down to within Birmingham that this just weekend gone really just

Saturday there was a kind of symposium held on this are a Shia Institute which was looking at the further issue from a Shia and Sunni perspective and just highlighting the case at hand obviously I mean the Institute was Shia but it's it was kind of with regard to the Sunni perspective as well and the Institute was called al Mahdi Institute it's in Selly Oak in Birmingham I have to say first of all just as a side note for one I was so mesmerized by the actual building and Institute that they've got

honestly I I totally loved it it's I think it was part of Birmingham University or something before it's like a university hall or a separate kind of a unit almost which has all its own Suites and everything and very modern amazing kind of landscape just I I was wowed mesmerised by it as a Islamic faculty I mean I've been in faculties like that before the or when I'm going to things like psychology courses at universities and stuff like this but I've never seen anything to do with Muslims like that and it was incredibly

organized up to date you know kind of technology I was just wild one with the building two days I think it's under the I think the principal share the is share our if very kind of balanced she a scholar I was the first time I met him but somebody who's he's quite very controversial within the Shia circles he's challenged a lot of controversial she appoints and I think there's a lot of the she I've actually boycotted him but I am a very hospitable person I loved that the way they welcomed me there were many Sunnis there

by the way some great traditional Sunni scholars like like trained in back home Pakistan etc people like a lama holid Mahmud sub me and I was overwhelmed with the amount of love he was showing me because I was thinking come on I mean I cuz I really did not expect it from somebody so traditional looking at me I mean because you know I mean just the way I look and things like this and my views are sometimes very kind of challenging but so hospitable he was a lama holid sob and Mufti Farouk's are

both these are Sunni kind of scholars from Birmingham old school and they presented their things in order to but it was an amazing opportunity so I thought I'll just mention that they did really enjoy the visit they and I think we need to collaborate so much more you know sunni shia this whole thing we need to really we really need to kind of go through this Vera you are busy but if you get a bit of time please do answer my question oh yes said shukran much
