As much as Akram Nadwi’s cult followers like Ismail Ibrahim Harris Hammam hate to admit it, Carla Power confirms that she wanted him to change his views & that some women had indeed succeeded in influencing him!

Carla Power even describes her teacher & friend Akram Nadwi as "The Accidental Feminist"!

Where did all of Akram Nadwi's backtracking on traditional Islamic views & distorted representation of Islam get him? Did Carla Power become a Muslim?
