Jack Jewell - Part 2

Crossing Faiths

In this conversation, Jack Jewell and John Pinna discuss Islam, its place in Western societies, and the challenges of Muslim integration. They explore topics such as the diversity within Islam, the impact of post-colonial systems on Muslim-majority countries, and the struggle for Muslim identity in secular Western nations. Pinna, drawing from his experience as a Muslim scholar and leader, provides insights into Islamic law, the varying interpretations of Islamic texts, and the complexities of reconciling traditional Islamic values with modern Western ideals. They address issues such as LGBTQ+ rights in Muslim communities, the influence of conservative Islamic organizations, and the challenges faced by Muslims in maintaining their faith while integrating into Western society. The conversation also touches on the rise of extremism among some British-born Muslims and the need for open dialogue between Muslim communities and their host societies.
