Yusuf al-Qaradawi was a prominent Egyptian Islamic scholar based in Doha, Qatar. He was known for his leadership in the International Union of Muslim Scholars and authored over 120 books, including the notable work “The Lawful and the Prohibited in Islam.” Al-Qaradawi gained global recognition through his Al Jazeera program “Sharia and Life” and the establishment of IslamOnline. Despite his association with the Muslim Brotherhood, he claimed to have distanced himself from the organization. Referred to as a “moderate Islamist,” his controversial views on topics such as Palestinian suicide bombings led to tensions with Western governments.
