Understanding Salafism - An Interview with Yasir Qadhi (Throwback)

One of the reasons I became interested in Biblical and Qur'anic figures is because I did my dissertation and initial research on the medieval Ibn Kathir (d. 774/1373) and Ibn Taymiyya (d. 728/1328).  Both Ibn Kathir and Ibn Taymiyya engaged the Arabic Bible and wrote on Biblical literature and its relationship to the Qur'an.  These figures today would be understood as "salafis".  But what does that mean?  I sit down with Yasir Qadhi to discuss the meaning of "salafism", his relationship to the movement, and the potential for a more inclusive Islam.  Send me a text regarding your feedback, comments and questionsSubscribe to the Islamic Mary podcast which is available on the major podcast streaming services, such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify and YouTube.Order my new book The Islamic Mary: Maryam Through the Centuries Take my quiz on the Islamic Mary which is based on my research and teaching Visit my website to learn more about my bio, research, and blogs.Join my listserve to be updated about my research, speaking and publications, especially my book on the Islamic Mary.Thanks for listening to The Islamic Mary Podcast!
