Shakir, who holds degrees from American University, Rutgers and Syria’s Abu Noor University, is a scholar-in-residence at Zaytuna Institute in Hayward, California. He is a frequent speaker at national Muslim events and has emerged as one of the country’s leading Islamic scholars and a voice of conscience for American Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
