What this part covers

machinesummary, machine-written

Ismail Patel published his email exchange with Farid, in which Farid apologises for the leak and says he had consulted Abdul Rahman Hassan as an academic.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth says that Shaykh Ismail Patel has this week published on his Facebook page the transcript of emails between himself and Farid, and shows them on screen. He reports that in them Farid apologises for the mess but at the same time says he was in touch with one of the UK's finest academics, and reveals, to his own laughter, that the academic in question is Abdul Rahman Hassan. He jokes about the honorific attached to Farid's name in the emails, says he could not help himself, and sums up that the leak is now owned up to.
