Muslims in non-Muslim lands Mohammed‘s main focus is on the concept of minority jurisprudence (fiqh al-aqalliyat) and tradition-based or Sharia hermeneutics. His book, Muslims in non-Muslim Lands: A Legal Study with Applications, explains how the British Muslim community developed its faith identity through three particular stances: assimilation, isolation and integration. The findings argue that the assumption that Islam causes Muslims to isolate from the indigenous population and form ‘a state within a state’ is false, and that Islamic law actually gives Muslims confidence and the ability to integrate within the wider society.

Fatwa exposing OneCoin scheme Cryptocurrency OneCoin is deemed one of the world’s biggest crypto-scams. OneCoin claimed to have a Shariah-compliant certificate about which Mufti Amjad Mohammed started to receive queries by uncertain Muslim investors. After careful inspection of the OneCoin terms and conditions, Mohammed issued a fatwa saying that Muslims should not invest in OneCoin. In response, OneCoin claimed they had changed their T&Cs, but he still advised against Muslims investing as OneCoin could not be found on any cryptocurrency exchanges. See more List of Deobandis
