In this episode of the Blood Brothers Podcast, Dilly Hussain, speaks with the world-renowned Islamic scholar, thinker and writer, Dr. Tareq al-Suwaidan. Topics of discussion include: Misconceptions about the geopolitical importance of pre-Islamic Arabia and the status of the Arabs. Was the establishment of a state a means or the end objective for the Prophet Muhammad (saw)? At what point in the Seerah did the mission to establish a state go from “strategic thinking” to “strategic planning”? Can there be a civilisation without a state or a polity? What makes a state “Islamic” - is its constitution, its laws and courts, the societal culture and values? Dr. al-Suwaidan’s thoughts on Wael Hallaq’s argument that it’s impossible for the modern nation state to be Islamic? What is the caliphate, and can such a polity exist in the modern day?
