With reference to the article “Training imams to counter extremism” by Samar Fatany (Feb. 2), this 10-year strategy to conduct national dialogue is a good idea. Discussions of national issues openly in a forum can be construtive and productive. The idea suggested by the author for more representations of moderate voices is also commendable. The best part I guess is the idea of training imams to deliver meaningful sermons during Friday prayer. Overall the article was very informative. Faiz Al-Najdi, Online response
