Shaykh Hamza Yusuf is considered by a number of official entities to be the most influential Muslim leader in the West. Given his public status, he has attracted much attention, some of which has of late been negative given the political engagements he has been involved in. Due to an increasing level of attacks targetting Shaykh Hamza's integrity and questioning his fidelity to the Muslim community, many Muslims are starting to doubt their trust in Shaykh Hamza.
Topics addressed in this episode include a timeline of the change in Muslim public opinion of Shaykh Hamza, the role of the news and social media in shaping the Muslim psyche and social psychology, and the forwarning Hadiths with instructions for how to conduct oneself in times like this.
