  • "An Ulima" and "Caliphats" Surrounding Caner’s Father

    In the following clip, Dr. White addresses two additional Arabic points. The first is that “ulima” (or “ulema” or “ulama”) is a plural form, not a singular form (the singular is Alim) – so one cannot be “an ulema” although that’s how Dr. Caner referred to his father in his speech at the 2009 Value…
