    Shaykh Abdul Qadir Mu’min used to attend a masjid in south london in greenwich in which he used to give lectures but the salafees kicked him out as no one had knowledge to even argue with him. He gave many lectures but he is 100% a Muhaddith (a scholar in hadith) but inshallah can try to get more information for you inshallah from one of his most successful students who is in the uk and recieved many ijaza from him. but he has a few lectures on youtube which you may track to people who can also get you a bios!
