Prime Minister Imran Khan and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Discuss Pride

*Support Zaytuna College's Ramadan 2022 Campaign: zaytuna.edu/illuminate*
In this installment of Renovatio's Seven Deadly Sins series, Zaytuna College President Hamza Yusuf and Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan engage in a personal and powerful discussion on the dangers of pride, and how to ward off the delusions of the sin that has been described as the "mother of all sins."
THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS, A SPECIAL RENOVATIO SERIES HOSTED BY HAMZA YUSUF
Hamza Yusuf converses with scholars, leaders, and writers to explore one of religion's most enduring conceptual frameworks, the Seven Deadly Sins. These compelling conversations shed light on how the sins manifest themselves within us, illustrate their devastating consequences on our culture, and elucidate their corresponding virtues for all of us who struggle with sin.
