The Living Islam Show
May 03, 2007 | 17 Rabbi al-Thanni 1428
The Living Islam Show is a presentation of Threshold Media Group, LLC. Please join us live, Saturday May 5th, 2007, on the Living Islam Show at our new time: 5-6p.m. E.D.T., on 900amWURD. We’ll have as our guest brother ‘Umar Lee, author of the article, “Rise and Fall of the ‘Salafi’ Da’wah in the US”. Brother ‘Umar will discuss his analysis of the Salafi movement, one of the most influential and controversial movements in contemporary American Muslim history. With retrospection, we will explore its early development and its fleeting success which left some with fond memories and others cynical, jaded, and scarred. To read brother ‘Umar’s article, go to his site at UmarLee.com. Calls are welcomed at 215-634-8065 and toll free calls at 1-866-361-0900. We’re also live on the web at 900amwurd.com.
As an addendum to this, you may wish to revisit the issue that brother ‘Umar and myself took up nearly two years ago right here on this blog. I will be curious to see what ‘Umar’s comments will be as I was labeled an apparently “middle of the road mushy” [see comments here and here namely].
Here’s the chain as it went: The Salafi Problem, The Salafi Problem: Part II, Salafiyyah - The Conversation Continues, and Salafiyyah - The Conversation Really Continues.
