Dear Dr Yasir Qadhi:
I read your thoughts with great deal of interest.
I respect the depth of your knowledge in Islamic jurisprudence & your courage to shed light on some of the most sensitive issues of our time- Turkey's decision per #HagiaSophia being the latest.

You eloquently provided historical context to build your scholarly argument and you dismissed Muslims who opposed Turkey's decision as people who are simply embarrassed by how shariah supports Turkey's decision.
I am not a scholar of Islam by any stretch of imagination.

- Don't you think this would provide an irresistible precedent (with Islamic backing....) for Israel to expedite its long aspired objective to reclaim Masjid Al-Aqsa (The Dome of the Rock) as the Temple Mount?
Wa Allahu aa'lam.
*Looking forward to your answers. JumuaMubarak
