Ft. ‪@MuhammadHassanIlyas‬

In the 49th episode of the OTS Educational Podcast Series, we feature the researcher and scholar Muhammad Hassan Ilyas to discuss education, politics, history, theology, and current affairs.

Mr. Hassan shares his learning experiences in Malaysia under the mentorship of Javaid Ahmed Ghamidi and explains how, as an overseas Pakistani, his observations of American society contradicted popular beliefs.

Defending American exceptionalism, the scholar asserts that he sees the US as the most civilized imperial power with which "we can discuss human rights," he argues. The podcast further explores discussions on the Middle East conflict, Pakistan's crisis, and the revisionist thoughts in Islam.
