Join host Naghmeh Sohrabi as she speaks with Raihan Ismail, author of Rethinking Salafism: The Transnational Networks of Salafi ‘Ulama in Egypt, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, about misconceptions surrounding Salafi thought, the surprising diversity in Salafi traditions, and the significance of local contexts in shaping their positions on issues such as Shi’ism, women, and allegiance to rulers.
Raihan Ismail, senior lecturer at the Australian National University and the Goldman Faculty Leave Fellow at the Crown Center.
Naghmeh Sohrabi, director for research at the Crown Center and the Charles (Corky) Goodman Professor of Middle East History.
