DR. YASIR QADHI, PhD is the Dean of The Islamic Seminary of America, and resident scholar of the East Plano Islamic Center.
In more than 2 decades of teaching, Shaykh Yasir found the vast majority of questions coming in privately were that of marital relations - explicit questions even he (in his early years) was too shy to address.
So in 2008, when the topic of intimacy was still very much taboo in masjid communities, he partnered with DiscoverU to bring a much-needed answer in the way of a virtual and confidential learning environment on the topic of Halal Intimacy.
