Mufti Abdul Kader Hoosen is a senior Aalim in South Africa. He is popular for his Q&A programme on Channel Islam. Mufti Saehb is fondly known as Mufti AK and on occasions has also been referred to as Ak47. Mufti Saheb does not have a website on which he responds to questions, however he does answer queries via email:
mufti@telkomsa.net

Just to correct some of the info that has previosly mentioned

Mufti Saheb was granted to opportunity of teaching most of the subjects that were taught at the Darul Uloom during his time there. Mufti Saheb was the Head of the Darul Iftaa in Newcastle for over 10 years. He was also the Vice-Principal and he shared the position of Shaykhul Hadeeth with Maulana Cassim Sema saheb (Rahimahullah). Unfortunately in 2000, due to certain problems, Mufti Saheb resigned from Darul Uloom.
