 Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi Barred from U.K.

It was announced during the first week of February 2008 that foremost Sunni cleric Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi has been barred from the U.K. 

Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi, who is head of the European Council for Fatwa and Research, president of the International Association of Muslim Scholars (IAMS), and the spiritual guide of many other Islamist organizations across the world, including the Muslim Brotherhood, has already been barred from entering the U.S.

MEMRI research on Al-Qaradhawi was instrumental in the U.S. ban, and has also been used by the media and government bodies in the U.S. and throughout Europe to expose Arabic statements by the sheikh that are not readily accessible to the West.

U.K. government documents leaked to the media showed that Mockbul Ali, Islamic Affairs advisor to the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office, had written a report urging the government to allow Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi to enter the U.K., and stressing that all the material against Sheikh Al-Qaradawi was produced by MEMRI and should therefore be disregarded. The government dismissed his recommendation and rejected Al-Qaradhawi's visa request.

The following is a selection of research on Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi, from The MEMRI Archives, including 32 television clips (total runtime of nearly two hours); 24 Special Dispatches, and 10 Inquiry & Analysis reports.
