Our guest this week is Wadah Khanfar, the former director general of Al Jazeera and now head of the Al Sharq Forum, who was recognized by Foreign Policy magazine in 2011 as one of the world's top 100 thinkers. He argues that, despite the bleak period we are experiencing, the world is undergoing a seismic shift in global order. What comes next will shape this new age, and Muslims must stop being mere spectators and begin actively shaping this new system.
