Zakir Naik - Why Dialogue is Difficult

Controversial Mumbai-based Muslim preacher and Tokoh Maal Hijrah awardee continues to divide public opinion and even politicians within both the Barisan Nasional and Pakistan Harapan.

Will police restrictions on the topics he can speak about and demand that he not “denigrate other religions” calm frayed nerves? This morning we look at why some conversations are so difficult.
