How should a "Western Islam" differ to its Eastern counterpart, if at all? What is modernisation? Does Islam need it? How have scholars responded to it in the past? Is reform a shocking innovation or is it a vital part of being faithful to Islam's inner intents? and quite importantly, does it have clear dimensions and strict remits? It is questions like these that we at UBTrust and UCLU Islamic Society aim to tackle in an atmosphere of faithful academic discussion and debate between two leading figures in Western Islamic thought.
Join us for a historical event and witness the much awaited collaboration between Shaykh (Dr.) Al-Haddad and Prof. Ramadan, for what promises to be an animated evening of intellectual intrigue and stimulating debate on issues that concern us most in the West
Bring your ideas and thoughts to the forefront in a live question time workshop which aims to give you a platform and allow for an enriching debate experience.
