About my Guest:
M. Zuhdi Jasser, M.D., is the Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD) and the author of “A Battle for the SoulofIslam: An American Muslim Patriot’ s Fight to Save His Faith” (Simon & Schuster, June 2012). On March 20, 2012, Jasser was appointed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) where he served two terms both as a Commissioner and Vice-Chair until May 2016.
A first-generation American Muslim, Jasser’s parents fled the oppressive Baath regime of Syria in the mid 1960's for American freedom. A devout Muslim, he and his family have strong ties to the American Muslim community having helped lead mosques in Wisconsin, Arkansas, Virginia and Arizona.
In the wake of the 9/11 attacks on the United States, Jasser and a group of American Muslims founded AIFD which promotes Muslim voices for liberty and freedom through the separation of mosque and state. They believe the root cause of Islamist terrorism is the ideology of political Islam (Islamism) and a belief in the supremacy of the Islamic state. AIFD's primary projects include the Muslim Liberty Project (MLP) and the Muslim Reform Movement (MRM) which was launched in December 2015 and is comprised of a coalition of over 15 Western Muslim Leaders from the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The MRM has written a Declaration for Muslim Reform, a living document, which was presented to Muslim organizations, leaders and mosques across the U.S. in 2016, with hopes of using its principles to clearly separate radical Islamists from Muslims who believe in universal human rights. Dr. Jasser has continued to engage Muslim communities domestically in addition to globally including speaking tours to Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
