[Bilal Mahmud المكافح المخلص]

Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, one of the Sunni Muslim world’s most influential religious scholars, has died.

Al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian who was based in Qatar, was the chairman of the International Union of Muslim Scholars, and also a spiritual leader for the Muslim Brotherhood. He was 96 years old.

His death on Monday was announced on his official Twitter account.

Al-Qaradawi, who formerly made regular appearances on Al Jazeera Arabic to discuss religious matters, hosted a popular TV program, “Shariah and Life,” in which he took calls from across the Muslim world, dispensing theological rulings and offering advice on everything from global politics to mundane aspects of daily life.

Al-Qaradawi was highly critical of the coup that overthrew Egypt’s first democratically elected president, Mohamed Morsi, in 2013.

Morsi had been a member of the Muslim Brotherhood before he became president, and was backed by the movement.

To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.

The Allāmah, one of the most erudite and prolific authors and scholars of our Ummah, Shaykh Dr. Yusuf al-Qardawi, has returned to his Lord.

Sh. Qardawi authored over 120 books, gave countless lectures, and spent almost the entirety of his 96 years on earth in service to this religion.

May Allah forgive his sins, exalt his ranks, accept his good deeds,

and preserve his legacy as a means of blessings for him and benefit for all of us!

I plan to give a more detailed lecture about his life and times soon inshaAllah.
