Second Article in Islamic reform series at Guardian website

   My second article on Islamic reform is now up at the Guardian website.

   It is called [1]The Islamic Reformation (the original title was The
   Islamic Reformation and the Ijtihad Nightmare). Just an excerpt:

     So now that we know how extremists came to dominate Muslim dissent
     (and Salafism failed to check it) what are we to do about it? Three
     things.

   Comment there please. This article puts me at odds with Salman
   Rushdie, as the commentators note.
