paradigms of leadership is a series of lectures featuring

00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

myself recorded here at the Cambridge Muslim college to some

00:00:08 --> 00:00:08

of our

00:00:10 --> 00:00:16

beloved supporters and students in which I revisit. For many of them.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:21

It's a visit, for the first time some of the extraordinary

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

biographies of certain of the amazing heroes personalities,

00:00:25 --> 00:00:30

scholars, Alia of this Alma, from the beginning, some of the Sahaba

00:00:30 --> 00:00:35

down to modern times, the idea seems to be that people are

00:00:35 --> 00:00:41

attracted to the personification of ideals. They want to see real

00:00:41 --> 00:00:46

human role models, heroes, champions, inspirational figures,

00:00:46 --> 00:00:53

with extraordinary lives, who they can not only be amazed by, and who

00:00:53 --> 00:00:58

helped them to feel embedded in and proud of the membership of the

00:00:58 --> 00:00:58

glorious

00:01:00 --> 00:01:06

caravan of Muslim history, but also show virtues, values, forms

00:01:06 --> 00:01:11

of courage, and wisdom that are universal so that these are

00:01:11 --> 00:01:15

individuals, men and women who have things to tell us in our

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

situation at this rather extreme and disturbed point of world

00:01:19 --> 00:01:22

history. So we look at an extraordinarily broad range of

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

people. So Kane had been tell Hussein's beloved daughter of

00:01:25 --> 00:01:29

Emmanuel Hussein, the great protests and amazing heroic woman

00:01:29 --> 00:01:36

in her own right. We look at the third Khalifa Othman Ibn often, we

00:01:36 --> 00:01:41

look at Imam Shamil, the great hero of the Dotty Stanny, Caucasus

00:01:41 --> 00:01:46

Muslim resistance to the Russian invasion in the 19th century and

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

plenty of others. And we found that this formula really holds

00:01:49 --> 00:01:52

people's attention because it's wonderful for us to realize how

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

those people in some cases lived so long ago, but their lives can

00:01:56 --> 00:02:00

still change our lives today, these recordings to which we're

00:02:00 --> 00:02:05

constantly adding, but there's over 20 already are available on

00:02:05 --> 00:02:10

the website of the Cambridge Muslim college and on our online

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

learning platform.
