Zahack Tanvir is a Hyderabad-born independent journalist, counter-extremism expert, and the founder and editor of the UK-based media outlet Milli Chronicle. A self-described "anti-Islamist" traditional Muslim, he is one of the sharpest Muslim voices breaking down the difference between Islam as a faith and Islamism as a political ideology, with deep expertise in radicalization, South Asian politics, and the future of Muslims in India.
In this episode, Vinamre and Zahack discuss:
• Whether Hinduism and Islamism can coexist in India — and the future of Muslims under Modi
• How and why Muslims actually get radicalized
• The fake narrative being sold to Indian Muslims about persecution
• The Heera Gold Ponzi scheme and why South Asian Muslims live a backward life
• The caste system inside Islam, Sufism, and why Ismaili Muslims excel at business
• India's strategy in the next 5 years amid the West Asia war
