In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with counter-extremism campaigner and founder of Tell MAMA, Fiyaz Mughal, for a wide-ranging conversation on Sharia councils, Islamism, integration, and the future of British multiculturalism.
We examine the reality of Sharia councils in Britain, how they operate, and why their lack of regulation raises serious concerns, particularly for women and their legal rights. Fiyaz explains the difference between non-binding religious arbitration and English civil law, and why greater transparency, oversight, and accreditation are urgently needed.
The discussion explores Islamism, religious literalism, and how parts of British Islam shifted after the 1980s, from a more culturally integrated faith to a harder and more ideological identity. We discuss migration, community clustering, social pressure, and why dissent within Muslim communities has increasingly been shut down.
We also address anti-Muslim hate in Britain, the work of Tell MAMA, the distinction between free speech and harassment, and how international events often drive domestic tensions. Fiyaz argues that Britain must defend its institutions, national values, and freedoms, while rejecting both Islamist extremism and racial hatred.
A serious and nuanced conversation about faith, identity, integration, and whether Britain can still articulate what it stands for in an age of moral relativism.
