Who sits on the Sharia Council Panel & what are their credentials

Assalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmathulla hi Wabarakatuhu (May The Peace, Mercy and Blessings of The Almighty Be Upon You)

This is often a question that we are constantly asked as well as where are the Scholars Details on your website, or why are all the scholars’ details not on the website.

There are a few factors which made us decide collectively around 2019 to remove all our of our panel members details from the website.

This was following an incident where one of our elderly scholars was attacked by a respondent at is home address.

Unfortunately the community can be very childish and violent at times and as our respected scholars are all public figures, it would not take long to find who they are and where they live, due to this unfortunate incident and the verbal abuse we sometimes experience from callers we apply a very strict policy to not share our details and have all communication with respondents and or applicants VIA email.

We request that you respect the Ulama on the panel and their right to privacy, this is in line with our data protection and safeguarding processes and procedures.

We are not for profit organization that has served the Muslim community for over 30 years, but due to the aggression we sometimes are exposed to we cannot give any person the details of the members of the organization.

We do ask for you all to kindly accept and respect this decision.

Furthermore our documentation is recognized in 98% of all Masjids up and down the country, these documents are also recognized in several governments around the globe once they have been legalized.

We receive many referrals from hundreds of organizations in Britain and across Europe and pride ourselves in the meticulous attention to detail that we give each person who contacts us for advice or signposting, but we will not tolerate aggression or threats of violence against any of our volunteers.

We will simply block you on our communication platforms and report you to the Authorities.
