What has upset the worshippers at his 'local' mosque is the incoherency in the expression of Dr Usama Hasan's views coupled with his high-handed approach.

How can the situation be resolved when he will not agree to a debate on evolution, but prefers to lecture the local congregation, who he considers intellectually inferior to himself, which, if true, is a situation that he and his family have encouraged over many years.

For instance, his mother criticises women who go out from the home, but allowed her own daughter to study at university. Not surprising when her sons graduated from the best universities and studied at perhaps the best schools in England.

For some of Usama Hasan's critics the issue is not so much with his recent views on evolution, but that they consider him a careerist. Some are hungry for revenge and so the issue on evolution may have become a smoke-screen for some other underlying issues.

Yes, from those against him, there are some who are behaving child-like, but Usama is no saint either.
